Arkansas (4-4, 2-2 SEC) at Ole Miss (7-2, 4-1 SEC) 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS: The Rebels bounced back from early October losses to No. 11 Florida and No. 15 Memphis with victories over Texas A&M and Auburn.
Arkansas’ record is somewhat deceptive. The Razorbacks have won three of their last four including a SEC road victory at Tennessee. In its last two games, Arkansas has scored 107 points.
Ole Miss is vulnerable against the pass. Florida QB Will Grier put up 271 yards and four touchdowns against Ole Miss on Oct. 3. Memphis QB Paxton Lynch found similar success, gashing the Rebels secondary for 384 yards and three TDs.
Brandon Allen has played well with seven TDs and just two picks in his last three games. His performance should be a key factor if the Razorbacks pull an upset.
