Tough news for one of the breakout stars in the SEC this year. Miss State was 4-0 and ranked No. 16 before Taylor's injury. (By @PeteThamel) espn.com/college-football/st…

Texas LB Rasheem Biles said that Colin Simmons said he’d give $500 to the first Longhorn to get a turnover against Ole Miss this past weekend. Justin Cryer cashed in with a first-half interception. #HookEm
It's been a lost year for Ole Miss' preseason All-American RB. Hope he can return soon.

Parity: An SEC Horror Story

Sources: Texas star left tackle Trevor Goosby will miss the remainder of the season after suffering a knee injury against Ole Miss on Saturday. Goosby is the country’s top NFL prospect at left tackle, as ESPN’s Field Yates ranked him the No. 8 pick in his most recent mock draft.
Watch out for LSU, a team that is starting to look scary as it gets healthier down the stretch.
“This is what the whole thing was supposed to look like when it was put together," Lane Kiffin said.

“I like the edgy, kind of borderline arrogant, full-of-swagger Arch. I just feel like that's when he's at his best,” Steve Sarkisian said. (Story by @dwil) espn.com/college-football/st…
Yes, there has been a lot of parity in the regular season.
But to keep it in perspective, the teams currently with the 5 best national title odds were all preseason top 10.
Notre Dame +460, (preseason No. 4)
Georgia +470 (No. 2)
Ohio State +520 (No. 1)
Miami +580 (No. 7)
Indiana +750 (No. 6)
The timing on the schedule of Ole Miss’ trips to Florida and Texas turned out to be extremely sub optimal.
The Gators and Horns have had some complete stinkers this year but were at their absolute best the week the Rebels visited.

it is utterly insane how healthy Auburn has been so far this season compared to basically every other SEC team
Since joining the SEC, Texas A&M is 2-10 vs Alabama with wins in 2012 in Tuscaloosa and 2021 in College Station. The 10 losses are tied with LSU for its most vs. a single opponent over that span.
Texas has been held to 30 or fewer points in five straight games, the longest streak under Sarkisian and the longest for Texas since 2015 (5).
Texas is averaging 3.6 yards per rush, which ranks 13th in the SEC and is on pace to be its worst since 2017 (3.6).
Auburn QB Byrum Brown has thrown for 150 yards and rushed for 100 in back-to-back games.
With another, he’d tie Miss State’s Dak Prescott (2014), Auburn’s Nick Marshall (2014) and A&M’s Johnny Manziel (2012) for the longest streak by an SEC player over the last 20 years.
If you thought Ohio State's national title hopes took a big hit when Ryan Day announced that Julian Sayin would miss the rest of the season on Tuesday ...
The Buckeyes title odds have barely moved ... from +480 Monday to +500 today, per @DKSports
