For the very first time, ESPN’s College GameDay will be in The Grove in Oxford, Mississippi. As a college football fan, if you haven’t made it to Ole Miss for a game, you should. With one of the biggest games in the history of the program this Saturday, the experience on campus should be even better than ever.

The Rebels are 4-0, but struggled last week with a scrappy Memphis club. The defense was once again spectacular, but the Ole Miss offense was a bit rusty following a bye week. Bo Wallace was once again the up-and-down, good-and-bad quarterback we have come to know so well in his three seasons as the team’s starter. Wallace completed 22 of 37 passes for 248 yards and found Laquon Treadwell for two touchdowns, but he was also intercepted twice – pushing his season total to six.

Can the Rebels score on the Crimson Tide? They didn’t last year in a 25-0 Alabama win. But, what about Alabama? Will the Lane Kiffin driven offense, with Amari Cooper, Blake Sims, and a handful of great running backs, be able to put up the huge numbers they have so far this season against Cody Prewitt and company?
