Summary

Feed me us all rat poison after No. 5 Ole Miss clinically dismantled Wake Forest, 40-6, on Saturday.

The Rebels improved to 3-0 and now return home for back-to-back games, including their SEC opener against Kentucky September 28.

We’re more encouraged today on Talk of Champions than we were going into Wake Forest. The Rebels showed they can win ugly. And when their ugly is 40-6? And on the road and against a fellow Power 5 team for the first time this season?

The defense, warts and all, still hasn’t allowed a touchdown, and Ole Miss has played three games. The last time the Rebels did that? All the way back in 1961.

Impressive. Ole Miss is making it look like the 2008 Egg Bowl (ie, Wesley Carroll’s nightmare) every week for opposing quarterbacks.

Ole Miss has never had this caliber of defense at all three levels. The Rebels have an argument for college football’s best team, especially after Kentucky scared Georgia and Quinn Ewers had to exit Texas’ win over UTSA. Does Ohio State have the quarterback play to match the nation’s best skill group?
