What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object? Ole Miss and Alabama will answer that old adage on Saturday. The Rebels dropped a combined 149 points the first two weeks -- admittedly against Tennessee-Martin and Fresno State -- and will look to run that form through Tuscaloosa.

What They're Saying
Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze on his approach to Saturday's game, per The DM Online: "We want to stay balanced. We're much better when we can do that. It sure would be nice if we were having some success running. That benefits us all the way around."
Alabama RB Derrick Henry on moving past 2014's loss to Ole Miss, per Al.com: "I don't really try to think about last year. My focus is on this year and how we can be better than last year in what we do this year. Try to focus this week on preparing right."
Performance To Examine
Two games, 553 yards rushing and nine TDs. That's what Ole Miss have been able to accumulate in 2015. That's what A'Shawn Robinson will be asked to contain in Alabama.
The DL is tagged by many to be a sure-fire NFL talent. One NFL executive said, per NFL.com: "There are a lot of players to choose from in this game. I'd lean toward No. 86 from Alabama. " He'll look to live up to that reputation on Saturday.
