Oxford, Mississippi (Sept. 18,2010) - Two weeks into the season & things aren't looking to good for the volunteers, as they have lost back to back home games. If things don't turn around soon this season might not end well.

Ole Miss is looking sharp as ever winning 3 games in a row and they look to continue that streak when the volunteers come to visit this weekend. Things are looking bright for ole miss as they lead their conference in a chance for a possible bowl berth down the road.

Find out this week end if the vol hasn't any bite left in that bark, as they try to notch their first win of the season or will the rebels be able to put this team to sleep? Find this week as the games kicks off at 2:00pm on ESPN
