SB Nation’s Red Cup Rebellion has full analysis of the Rebels’ performance yesterday. Head there for breakdowns of each position -- and some very angry mocking of Memphis fans in which they’re called “bitter, obnoxious, irrelevant, and small” -- but here’s the part about the man we all care about: Jevon Snead:
Ole Miss Didn’t Play Like a Top 10 Team; Still Some Positives Though
Jevan Snead will be fine, I’ve decided. Last year, he needed some time to shake off the rust, had a shaky start against Memphis, a burst of brilliance against Wake, then slowly climbed out of mediocrity until hitting his stride late in the season. Obviously he needs to keep things simple, to worry about just getting the ball in the hands of his playmakers, and work hard to get himself mentally right. Call Nutt a QB killer if you want, but he’s a coach first, not a QB psychologist. Snead has the potential; he’s already displayed it against major opponents last year. He’s just got to get his head stable. He’ll be alright, but still, it’s safe to say that we’re all glad that Bama isn’t next week.
