Today at 3:30 p.m. ET the No. 8 Ole Miss Runnin' Rebels (8-2, 4-2) will embark on a trip to Fayetteville's Razorback Stadium where the Arkansas Razorbacks (5-5, 1-5) will try to maintain the momentum they gained from last week's upset of LSU.

Despite two losses on the season for the Rebels, head coach Hugh Freeze is imploring his team to play out the rest of the season hard, while refusing to rule out sneaking back into the College Football Playoff.
"We've preached to our kids all along -- you play until the end and see what happens," said Freeze. "There's just so much football left to be played. The results (from last weekend) certainly kept us alive with some very important, lofty things that we could accomplish."
Ole Miss has been hurt by injuries this year, but will be getting left tackle Laremy Tunsil and safety Cody Prewitt back. That, plus last week's multiple outcomes working in Ole Miss' favor, has quarterback Bo Wallace believing.
"Everything that we needed to happen, happened," Wallace said. "So we're excited about that, but it doesn't matter unless we take care of us."
Arkansas may be just 5-5, but they appear dangerous after shutting out LSU and grinding them down with a power run game. Freeze acknowledged this matchup will be tougher than meets the eye.
"I guess, just looking at what has occurred, you would have to say that this may not be our best matchup," Freeze said. "But we've got to play it, and we've got to find a plan to get our kids in the right spot. Hopefully we learned something."
