(3%) OLE MISS. The Rebels will honor their old coach (Evans) and his wife at tonight's throwback game in the “Tad Pad” against Sam Houston State. It's the first time that a game will be played here for eight years. The Rebels got some practices in there and have an advantage of being somewhat familiar with the environment. Coach Beard really wants this one: “We damn sure respect who came before us. It’s important to us. This morning was awesome and you could tell our players understand that too with Coach Evans talking about his time here and how he built the program. You could tell our players were locked in. I hope we play well Friday night for so many reasons." The Bearkats are coming off a great season but they lost a lot from that team. The Rebels will keep their foot on the gas, en route to a double-digit win. *good at -11 or better
