Mississippi at Memphis

When: 12 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 31 at Memphis (Liberty Bowl)

How to watch: ABC with Mark Jones, Dusty Dvoracek and Olivia Dekker

Outlook: Oh man could be entertaining to have Rich Rodriguez in the Southeastern Conference. The new offensive coordinator for Ole Miss is back in the game after leaving the desert and Arizona two seasons ago.

Rodriguez will attempt to bring a more high-octane offense to Oxford and this interesting road game at Memphis will be the first look at what the Rebels have put together.

Memphis has their own potent quarterback in redshirt junior Brady White. White was named to the Manning Award watch list after closing out last year with 3,296 total passing yards last season.

The Last Line: This could be one of the more interesting games Saturday for the SEC. Memphis has the potential to be dangerous and could sneak up on Ole Miss, if the Rebels aren’t ready.
