Yesterday, the Arkansas News, a news source out of Little Rock, posted a little smack talk about tomorrow’s game between the Ole Miss Rebels and the Arkansas Razorbacks. Bret Bielema, the Razorback coach, and his team have spent all week practicing tactics to knock Chad Kelly off his game.

“All this week we’ve been focusing on making sure we get our hands up and try to affect him, get in his head.” Defensive end Tevin Beanum said, “Just disrupt his feet or vision.”

The Razorbacks seem to have built up some confidence after their last two wins over UT Martin and Auburn (and forgetting their four losses, compared to the 7-2 Ole Miss record).

“We’ve got to find ways to disrupt,” defensive coordinator, Rob Smith said. “Get a hand in (Kelly’s) face, get pressure on him. I think when he sits back there and he has time, he’s very effective, but like any other quarterback, if you can get pressure and disrupt receivers, you greatly improve your odds of being successful.”

SEC Nation - April 16, 2014The Ole Miss Rebels will face the Arkansas Razorbacks at the Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford tomorrow at 2:30 p.m., as SEC Nation also comes for a visit in the Grove. We hope the hogs are ready for a good roast.
