The recent decision to ban smoking on campus at The University of Mississippi has been met with criticism from faculty, staff and students alike. The criticism is coming to a peak today at 1 p.m. in the Grove when a group, led by two Ole Miss students, will protest the ban.
Chase Bradstreet and Kyle Jones are third-year law stu-dents and casual smokers. The duo started a Facebook group called “Smoke Up The Grove,” which invites anyone interested to smoke cigars or cigarettes during the protest.
Because the smoking ban will not be fully enforced un-til Jan. 1, 2013, the University Police Department can only hand out warning cards to those seen smoking on cam-pus.
Bradstreet and Jones con-firmed that extra trash recep-tacles and some water will be provided at the protest.
The protest was originally scheduled for Aug. 31, but Hurricane Isaac forced the protest to be moved back one week.
Bradstreet and Jones expect approximately 100 students to be present at the protest and said faculty and staff involve-ment is highly encouraged.
According to Bradstreet and Jones, the protest is specifical-ly aimed at the zero-tolerance smoking ban on campus. The ban is a change from the pre-vious policy which utilized designated smoking areas throughout campus.
Both Bradstreet and Jones said they feel that the previ-ous policy was sufficient but neither well-enforced nor well-publicized by the univer-sity, and they are not alone in this thought.
Jeanette Wells, Kathleen Henry and Deborah Smith, university employees who work in Martindale, also voiced their displeasure with the way the previous policy was enforced and publicized.
Smith said the university
did not make people aware of the location of designated smoking areas.
“Nobody knew where they were,” Smith said. “They know now that the whole campus is smoke free.”
Bradstreet and Jones said they would be happy to return to the previous smoking poli-cy, and Jones said the prob-lem with the policy was that it wasn’t properly enforced.
“It’s not going to be respect-ed if you’re not going to en-force it,” Jones said.
Wells and Henry showed strong support in the student-organized protest and indicat-ed that they plan to participate should their schedules allow.
Bradstreet and Jones are also in agreement that the protest will be a good thing regardless of the university’s reaction.
More scheduled protests will depend on the univer-sity’s reaction and the student turnout.
Melissa Loria, a neurosci-ence graduate student who is in the process of quitting smoking, is a strong advocate for bringing back the old pol-icy and will be attending the protest despite being a non-smoker.
“We’re not expecting a good reaction from (the university), but if we get it we’ll be very pleased,” Loria said.

Voter ID bill to go before the Department of Justice
On April 10, the Missis-sippi Senate passed House Bill 921 by a 34-14 vote. If approved by the U.S. Jus-tice Department, it will re-quire voters to provide a government-issued photo ID.
The bill is required to go before the U.S. Justice
Department as part of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. This act ruled that certain states with a history of ra-cial discrimination must request the approval of the attorney general or a fed-eral court to find that the proposed changes in elec-tion law will not discrimi-nate against voters.

House Bill 921, which was passed by the Mississippi House and Senate, will require voters to provide a government form of photo identification, and it is now up to the U.S. Depart-ment of Justice whether voters will or will not need photo IDs.

In response to the campus-wide smoking ban, students are spearheading a smoking ban protest today at 1 p.m. in the Grove.
Sophomore forensic chemistry major Kimmi Herring will sell lemonade in the Grove on Saturday to benefit childhood can-cer research and programs.
Nothing sounds more re-freshing than an ice-cold lemonade on a hot, humid day in the Grove. Add a great cause to a delicious cup of
lemonade and one has the perfect combination.

IGNACIO MURILLOlifestyles design editor Don’t vote for the Republicans or Democrats
BY ALEXANDRA [email protected]
I mean, vote for them if you believe the veritable issuance of fecal matter coming from either one of the candidates’ mouths. I would hope you wouldn’t, but to each his own.
If you don’t agree with the two major candidates, I beg you to find a candidate with whom you do fully or even mostly agree; one who’s prob-ably not lying about what they’re going to do in office.
In November, I will proud-ly be voting for former New Mexico Governor Gary John-son, the Libertarian Party candidate. Many would say that I am “wasting my vote.” Fine, say that, but I’m going to tell you you’re completely wrong. As little as individual votes can actually make a dif-ference, I argue that your vote is only wasted if you vote for a candidate who doesn’t em-body the ideals by which you believe the nation should be governed.
I hear endless complaints about how “the two-party system is broken and that we need to replace it, but it’s just so entirely impossible!” It’s not impossible. People should vote for the candidates they think will do the best job run-ning the country, not just the ones who will do it less badly than another candidate.
Voting against a candidate is one of the dumbest things anyone could aspire to. The train of thought that goes “I really hate this one politician from a major party, I think I’ll vote for the other guy!” is one that I refuse to buy a ticket on.
Neither Obama nor Rom-ney are going to stop med-dling in other countries’ af-fairs. Neither Obama nor Romney will ensure human rights are respected when dealing with captured ene-mies. Obama said he was go-ing to deal with Guantanamo last time he ran for President, and look where we are now. (Not that he doesn’t want to
get it done still, but he hasn’t.) Romney doesn’t even want to end Guantanamo. Neither are going to end the drug war, which resulted in a revolting number of deaths of innocent people and dogs. Really, if you don’t believe me, start reading Radley Balko. You’ll read about more puppy-cides as a result of the drug war then you ever thought imag-inable.
I could continue to show how these candidates are vir-tually the same, but I’d fill up an entire page, and then my editors would kill me.
I myself am a libertarian. In short, we believe in social tol-erance and fiscal responsibil-ity. I don’t care if you’re gay, straight, black, white, brown, Christian, Muslim, atheist, pot smoker, drunk or teeto-taler. You’re a person with rights, and until you try to violate mine, I could not care less what you, as a consenting adult, want to do to yourself in the privacy of your own residence, and I’d like the
government to reflect those views. So does Gary Johnson, and it is for that reason that I will be voting for him.
I don’t see why anyone would vote for a candidate just because their family tra-ditionally votes for one party or another. Every election, the ideal responsible voter would go on the Internet and find out which candidate identifies the most with their views. There are websites that will tell you which candidate that is after you answer some questions about your views. One of those is www.ISide-With.com, and it’s pretty dead on. I urge everyone to go on there — your results will either surprise you or only solidify your beliefs in your currently selected candidate. Maybe you’ll even find out about candidates you didn’t even know were running.

The blowback of the smoking banBY ALEC [email protected]
C O L U M N
NewsWatch5 p.m. Monday through Friday Channel 99The 30-minute show is the oNly loCal television newscast generating news directly to and for ole Miss, oxford and lafayette County.
Rebroadcast at 10 p.m.
I am a conservative who leans very libertarian, except on moral and social issues. If you’ve read my articles then you know there’s no doubt about this.
This is why my attitudes to-ward the smoking ban will sur-prise some people. I’m talking John Roberts and the Obam-acare ruling type of surprise; I doubt any conservative or lib-ertarian will agree. Here it is: The logic behind the smoking ban is perfectly sound.
The smoking ban is a ter-rible idea, but the reasoning behind it is acceptable. We choose to attend Ole Miss, go to games here and work here.
The smoking ban only in-fringes upon our freedom in-sofar as the infringement is within a community we freely choose to enter. Basically, if you don’t like it then you don’t have to be here.
Opponents of the smoking ban say that smoking only hurts those who inhale the smoke. They are right. Some argue that having designated smoking areas that are actu-ally enforced doesn’t violate anyone’s rights.
Common sense tells us that people are going to smoke anyway, and we shouldn’t po-lice victimless crimes. All of these arguments are correct.
However, they hardly make a splash in the pond when you’re dealing with the type of people who only know how to address problems by increas-ing their power and writing more rules.
The reason the smoking ban is malignant is the blowback that will ensue — the unintend-ed consequences of policies that seem perfectly fine at first.
When George W. Bush in-vaded Iraq and Afghanistan, the blowback was that it creat-ed more terrorists who wanted to attack America and our in-
terests. When Obama passed the Affordable Care Act, the blowback was the Tea Party and his one-term presidency. It is paradoxical, but the blow-back of the smoking ban is that it is detrimental to student health.
I can already picture the number of freshmen who will jump into cars with drunk drivers to smoke cigarettes because they’re not allowed to smoke in front of their dorms at night.
How many more people will simply resort to using smoke-less tobacco more often?
It’s obvious that we should stop trying to play God and let people be free to choose what’s right and wrong for themselves.
How many more off-cam-pus parties — where there is an increased likelihood for things to go wrong — are people go-ing to have now? All of this will happen because UPD can raid fraternity houses if some-
one is smoking.Ole Miss is such an out-
standing community because you can live most of your life on campus. The smoking ban puts people in harm’s way by pushing them off campus.
It might not seem likely or even possible right now, but over time we’ll see more drunk driving accidents, more people not coming back to campus and more negative in-cidents happening off campus.
Do supporters of the smok-ing ban really want to carry that burden?
The people who wrote the legislation behind the smoking ban surprisingly had logical reasons for why they should play God. Unfortunately, legislating isn’t a science, it’s common sense; something the smoking ban completely lacks.
Now we have a scenario in which people will get DUIs or even die in drunk driving ac-cidents because someone they
never met wanted to tell them how to live.
I suspect that the people wanting to ban cigarettes do not go to parties very often. But if they did, they’d under-stand that this is the real na-ture of what they’ve created. We can debate the merits and demerits of the smoking ban all day, but it requires the IQ of a zucchini to believe that it should apply during non-busi-ness hours.
I’ve already said that in prin-ciple I can sympathize with the smoking ban. However, mark my words, there will be some serious unintended con-sequences if we don’t change the rules so the ban only ap-plies during business hours.
Ole Miss needs to act with a little prudence and do what it can now to prevent the blow-back that’s headed our way. There is no time to waste.

lives. On Saturday, Herring will bring her lemonade stand to the Grove to benefit Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation
for Childhood Cancer. The foundation originated
with Alexandra (Alex) Scott, a cancer patient from Con-necticut who started a lemon-ade stand to raise money for cancer research and nursing programs that give children with cancer a good experi-
ence despite their illness. Although Alex succumbed
to cancer at the age of eight, she began a legacy that Her-ring proudly carries on.
Last January in Herring’s FASTrack writing class, the students were challenged to write proposals to the Asso-ciated Student Body with the question, “What would you do with $100 to help with the community?” The Alex’s Lemonade Stand proposal was one of the winners and was provided with funding to benefit a cause.
“This foundation is some-thing that is dear to my heart,” Herring said.
“It is very well known, and I had worked with the founda-tion at my high school, Camp-bell High School, in Smyrna, Georgia.”
Herring has plans to sell lemonade Saturday because it is Fall Family Weekend.
“I will be selling the lemon-ade during pregame tailgating from around noon until the game starts in the FASTrack tent,” she said.
Karen Forgett, Herring’s former FASTrack writing pro-fessor, thinks Herring’s proj-ect will be a success.
“I am certain that her project will do well, but I also believe that Kimmi’s lemonade stand is a testament to the power of good writing,” Forgett said.
“Kimmi, and all of the FAS-Track students, used their writing skills to promote pos-itive change in the world.”

difficult time in getting things pre-cleared through the Department of Justice,” George Cochran, Ole Miss law professor, said.
If the voter ID rule is ap-proved, it will require each voter to present a photo ID which must include, but will not be limited to: a current and valid Mississip-pi driver’s license, identifi-cation card, United States passport, license to carry, tribal ID and/or employee ID issued by the U.S. gov-ernment or the state of Mis-sissippi.
The current cost of a Mis-sissippi driver’s license is $21, and $14 for a state ID. Both forms of ID are valid for four years.
In Georgia, where the voter ID law was recently passed, a free photo ID card is provided to citizens who do not have a state ID, but require proof of resi-dence.
This would require many people to pay travel ex-penses, therefore poten-tially putting a strain on certain voters. New Hamp-shire, Pennsylvania and South Carolina also have new voter ID laws that are designed to eliminate voter fraud.
The argument from Dem-
ocrats is that voter fraud is not an issue and the laws are being created to reduce the voting of minority and low-income voters.
In late August, a federal appeals court in Washing-ton struck down the Texas voter ID law, agreeing that it was racially discrimina-tory.
A statement released by Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said, “The court’s decision ... earlier this week on the Texas re-districting plans not only reaffirm — but help protect — the vital role the Voting Rights Act plays in our so-ciety to ensure that every American has the right to vote and to have that vote counted.”
Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS) is pleased that the re-cent bill passed.
“I support voter ID re-quirements such as the one passed by 62 percent of Mississippi voters last No-vember,” he said.
“Voter ID is already used in many states and is one way to combat fraud, which is an increasing problem. I am strongly opposed to the federal Justice Depart-ment’s lawsuits that are at-tempting to prevent states like Florida from imple-menting such laws.”
The voting polls for the general election will be open Nov. 6 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Football season is final-ly here. Tailgating in the Grove, late-night kickoffs and the high of a new coach bring us together. To me, nothing says welcome to Ole Miss like a big ol’ W in the first home football game. Thanks, Coach Freeze. Most of us had not seen a win dur-ing the first game of the year in quite some time. Now is the time for suits, dresses and other ridiculously cool cloth-ing to come out of the closets and make a statement at the next home football game. But there is one thing to ad-dress before we continue. So without further ado: Do you know what grinds my gears?
That would be students from Ole Miss cheering for another school on game day. Still confused? Well, let me clarify. What really agitates me is when students who go to Ole Miss pick other schools over their own. This just makes no sense whatso-ever to me. Oh, you’re a big
Texas, ‘Bama or LSU fan? Please tell me why you are at Ole Miss getting your de-gree. I may seem harsh, so let me dive a little further.
I grew up a diehard Ole Miss fan with several avid family members sparking desires for other teams as
well. For example, I love me some TCU Horned Frogs and Southern Miss Golden Eagles. But if they were to play Ole Miss, the Rebels are still No. 1. It makes sense when I am getting my degree from this great institution.
I bet in high school you
had a rival in sports. When you played them in football or some other sport, did you go to the student section wearing your rival’s colors and cheering them on to vic-tory because you live closer to that school than the one you actually attended? It
sounds a little ridiculous, right? The same applies for college. It shouldn’t matter if you grew up in the heart of Texas or the outskirts of Tus-caloosa — at the end of the day you should have more pride in your school.
I’m probably just preach-ing to the choir with this rant, but at least hear me out on this one request. If you still can’t understand my reasoning, at least do the dedicated fans a favor: If you wear another school’s colors, then stay out of the student section. If you still decide to invade our home with out-side colors on game day, just know that when Ole Miss mops the floor with your tears, thousands of hardcore Rebels will be there to take pictures while chanting Hot-ty Toddy.
This pretty much concludes this week’s rant. Have some-thing that grinds your gears? Odds are you are not alone. Let me know your thoughts and I will give them a voice. Until next time, Hotty Tod-dy and go Rebs.

hipp’s Tips: UTEPIn this week’s installment, Daily Mississippian football beat writer Bennett Hipp will give keys to the week’s matchup.
Nathan Jeffery’s statusAt the moment, it sounds
like sophomore running back Nathan Jeffery is going to play for UTEP on Saturday after suf-fering a strained groin against Oklahoma last week. However, Jeffery didn’t practice again on Thursday, so it remains to be seen how effective he will be.
Jeffery rushed for 177 yards last week against the Sooners and also returned a blocked punt for a touchdown. If he’s not at 100 percent, that’s a big break for Ole Miss and its run defense.
Put pressure on Nick La-maison
Senior UTEP quarterback Nick Lamaison threw at least one interception in eight of the nine games he played in last season. Last week against Oklahoma, he had a tough time getting anything going, as he completed 6-of-23 passes for a measly 39 yards through the air.
He was only sacked once last week by the Sooners, but if Ole Miss can put pressure on La-maison, they could cause com-munication problems between him and a very young group of UTEP wide receivers.
The Rebels recorded four sacks a week ago, and UTEP’s line is much better than that of Central Arkansas. However, a solid pass rush would go a long way in ensuring another vic-tory.
Be aggressive on offenseOklahoma struggled of-
fensively against the Miners last week, but they were able to generate two 60-plus yard scoring plays. Looking ahead to Saturday, those same shots down the field should be avail-able to Ole Miss. Hugh Freeze said that his offense is based off of high-percentage passes (screens, short passes, etc.), the running game and calculated shots down the field.
The Sooners had a 68-yard touchdown pass and a 65-yard touchdown run late against the Miners. Those calculated shots down the field could have a pretty solid success rate if the Miners can’t improve on pre-venting the big plays.
Third-down defense Last week against Central Ar-
kansas, the Ole Miss defense allowed the Bears to go 7-for-15 on third-down conversions. On the flip side, Oklahoma held UTEP to just 3-for-16 on third-down conversions, which is important, especially in the red zone.
If the Ole Miss defense can prevent UTEP from convert-
ing third-down plays and limit the Miners to only field goal attempts, it has the potential to work out well for the Rebels. UTEP missed three field goal attempts between two kickers last week, costing them a real shot at beating the Sooners. They missed attempts of 45, 31 and 41 yards on the night.
Preventing third-down con-versions would also go a long way in getting Ole Miss’ offense back on the field and scoring points to prevent another half-time deficit this week.

People did their own thing. I didn’t call a very good second quarter, and (defensive coor-dinator) Dave (Wommack) would say the same from his side. And we didn’t make ad-justments fast enough. I’d like to see us be very consistent and see disciplined football.
“Didn’t have any penalties to really speak of, so that was good and we won the turn-over battle. I would like to see those continue, but really just a complete game of us not feeling like we hurt our-selves.”
The Rebels will go with sophomore Bo Wallace at quarterback for the second-straight week after he turned in a solid performance in week one. Wallace was 20-of-24 for 264 yards with two touchdowns and one intercep-tion. He also added 82 yards on the ground on 13 carries, one of which was a 25-yard touchdown run.
UTEP is led by sophomore running back Nathan Jeffery, who was named C-USA Of-fensive Player of the Week for his performance against Okla-
homa. Jeffery rushed for a career-best and school-record 177 yards on 21 carries. How-ever, he was injured in the third quarter last week with a strained groin and has not practiced this week.
“We’re hoping he’ll be fine,” UTEP head coach Mike Price told Bret Bloomquist of the El Paso Times. “We have until Saturday. He ran around, he got good work, we just didn’t want him making major cuts as fast as he can.”
The Miners got some good news earlier in the week when senior wide receiver Mike Edwards returned to action after sustaining a concussion against Oklahoma last Sat-urday. For Ole Miss, junior running back Jeff Scott, who had been suffering from a lower back injury, will return this Saturday after missing last Saturday’s season open-er. The speedy back was the team’s leading rusher this past season, rushing for 529 yards and six touchdowns on 116 carries.
“(Senior running back Randall) Mackey will start,” Freeze said. “But Jeff will get in pretty quick.”
Freeze said that Scott would probably not be used in the
return game because, “he still isn’t 100 percent.”
One thing Freeze and his staff mentioned throughout practice this was the size that UTEP has on their offensive line.
“Their (offensive) line is a big massive line that does a
great job of being able to get on their blocks and stay with it,” defensive coordinator Dave Wommack said. “I was impressed with their offensive line. We’ve got packages we didn’t use last week that we will definitely use this week.”
The Rebels and Miners will
kickoff at 6 p.m. at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium and the game will be televised on Fox Sports Net.

1. Will there be a let-down after the season-opening win against Central Arkansas? Will Ole Miss be looking ahead to next week’s matchup against No. 15 Texas?
Bennett Hipp (@ben-netthipp): I don’t think so. Ole Miss isn’t yet at the point where it can begin to over-look opponents. UTEP is a step up from Central Arkan-sas, and next week’s ESPN primetime matchup will look much better for Hugh Freeze and company if they are 2-0, instead of 1-1. This is one of the more important games of the season for Ole Miss, and I doubt they’ll be looking ahead to Texas.
Matt Sigler (@SigNew-ton_2): I don’t think there will be a letdown against UTEP this week. This is a different Ole Miss team, and I think they are as con-fident as ever heading into this game. I think Texas is a lingering thought, but not enough to overtake the task at hand.
David Collier (@Dav-idLCollier): In my opin-ion, this game will show
exactly where this Ole Miss team is. I think they take an-other small step forward and begin the year 2-0 because I’m sure Hugh Freeze and his staff have been in team’s ears all week about not tak-ing UTEP lightly. Also, the Miners playing Oklahoma close last week should be enough to get the full atten-tion of the Rebels.
Austin Miller (@aus-tinkmiller): I think UTEP’s near-upset of No. 4 Oklahoma got Ole Miss’ full attention. I expect more of a letdown from the Min-ers after playing the Sooners close for three quarters than from an Ole Miss team look-ing for its first two-game win-ning streak since October of 2010. The luster will be worn off of next week’s ESPN pri-metime matchup with a loss this week.
2. Will the Ole Miss de-fense be able to contain the UTEP running game led by Nathan Jeffery -- who totaled 177 yards on 21 carries?
Hipp: I’ll say yes just be-cause I don’t know what ver-sion of Jeffery we’re going to see. His big game against
Oklahoma was impressive, but he injured his groin in the third quarter and hasn’t practiced this week. If he’s less than 100 percent ready to go, Ole Miss’ defense should be able to slow him down enough.
Sigler: The front seven for Ole Miss have a huge task this week in stopping a guy who ran for 177 yards against the No. 4 team in the country last week. Penetration will be key for the line and the line-backers are going to have to keep the UTEP running backs from breaking runs to the outside. Ole Miss is going to have to force the running game of UTEP to the middle of the field in order to have a good shot at stopping it.
Collier: Run defense was the biggest question mark for me heading into the season, and last week’s game didn’t answer any of those ques-tions. It will be a huge test for the undersized Ole Miss defensive line to disregard any concerns. If Nathan Jef-fery isn’t able to be a factor, it will be interesting to see how that changes the UTEP offense.
Miller: The health of Jef-fery will go a long way in an-swering this question. With the struggles of UTEP quar-terback Nick Lamaison this past week, I expect to see Dave Wommack and the Ole Miss defense load the box to stop the run, a lot of run blitzes from the linebackers and safeties and a lot more Gilbert Pena at the defensive tackle spot.
3. What kind of impact does junior running back Jeff Scott make in his season debut?
Hipp: He could have a pretty big one, really. Ran-dall Mackey played well last week, but wasn’t perfect. The freshmen Jaylen Wal-ton and I’Tavius Mathers impressed, but they’re still freshmen. Scott is the one proven home run threat they have at the position, and he’s been through the rigors against teams like this and better. Scott’s had a produc-tive week of practice and look for that to carry over into the game.
Sigler: Not too sure on this one. I think Scott will get some carries, but maybe not as many as anticipated with the emergence of Ran-dall Mackey and Jaylen Wal-ton. However, if Scott is able to break a few runs early, I think he will see a lot of the ball during the game.
Collier: I think it will be a slow process for Jeff Scott to get back to the form every-one is used to. He will have a solid performance and pos-sibly break a run to make his stats look better than he was.
Overall, I think he gets his chances and provides anoth-er steady back in the Rebels backfield.
Miller: I think Jeff Scott breaks at least one long run and forces UTEP to change its defensive game plan to contain him. It will be inter-esting to see what this means for senior Randall Mackey and freshman running backs Jaylen Walton and I’Tavius Mathers. I think all the run-ning backs will be fresher lat-er in the game, and I would look to see Mackey play some slot and maybe some more Wildcat.
4. Which movie based on real-life stories from Ole Miss and UTEP do you like better?
Hipp: Glory Road. Pretty easy decision in my book.
Sigler: Both are good movies, but I’ll go with The Blindside.
Collier: In my opinion, you have to go with Glory Road. It’s a classic story that is tough to beat.
Miller: Glory Road. You can’t argue with seeing Adolph Rupp and Kentucky lose to the artist formerly known as Texas Western.

SPORTSPAGE 12 | THE DAILY MISSISSIPPIAN | 7 SEPTEMBER 2012 | SPORTS
Rebels look for first back-to-back wins since 2010Ole Miss will take on UTEP, their second opponent of the season, tomorrow night in Oxford. The Rebels are coming off a season-opening win against Central Ar-kansas, while the Miners are looking to bounce back from a loss to Oklahoma.
After winning their first game of the season last Sat-urday against Central Ar-kansas, Ole Miss (1-0) looks to carry its momentum into tomorrow’s nonconference clash with Conference-USA member UTEP. The Miners of UTEP fell to No. 4 Okla-homa last Saturday 24-7 in a game that had many thinking the Miners had a chance at a major upset. They entered the fourth quarter trailing the Sooners by just three points.
“We’ve got our hands full with UTEP,” Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze said in his weekly press conference Monday. “I was hopeful that I would put on the film and see a team that is maybe not play-ing with great passion, but that
couldn’t be further from the truth. Coach (Mike) Price has those kids playing with a lot of passion and heart, and they got after one of the best teams in the country last weekend.”
Ole Miss and UTEP have played just once prior to Sat-urday’s matchup. The Min-ers got a 14-7 win in the 1967 Sun Bowl in El Paso. UTEP is also the first of three Texas teams that will make their way to Oxford this season. Freeze was happy with the way the season opener went last week-end, but also said that he is hoping to see some things go differently this week com-pared to last Saturday.
“(I want to see) four full quarters of good execution,” Freeze said. “We played an awful second quarter really.
