A car wreck Saturday morning took the lives of two Ole Miss students, siblings John and Sarah Wheat. The two-vehicle accident took place on Highway 6 at the 18th Street overpass, according to Oxford Police Capt. James Owens. “Right now, the investigation is still pending,” Owens said. “From what we’ve learned, one vehicle came across the median and struck the other vehicle.” Sarah, 24, was pronounced dead at the scene, and John, 30, died after being taken to a hospital in Memphis, according to a story in the Clarion Ledger. Owens said the individual in the other vehicle was transported to the local hospital where he is being treated for minor injuries. Dean of Students Sparky

A female University of Mississippi student was robbed at gunpoint around 2 a.m. Friday on University Avenue near the bridge that crosses Gertrude Ford Boulevard, according to the University Police Department (UPD). Another female student was with the victim when the robbery occurred. The suspect allegedly pointed a small-caliber gun to one of the female victim’s heads and took her purse, according to the crime alert posted by UPD Friday night. The suspect drives an older-model black sedan with tinted windows and was last seen heading toward Grove Loop. “We are trying to find the person responsible for this crime,” UPD Chief Calvin
Sellers said. “The victim was doing exactly what she should have been doing. She was out late, but she was in a well-lit area and was with another person.” Sellers said that the victim only had an iPhone and her wallet in the purse. The other female student involved did not have anything stolen from her. The two were walking back to campus from the Square. “I would encourage any student in that situation to give up any belongings,” Sellers said. “She did everything exactly right. It just shows that something like this can happen at any time, so you have to be aware of your surroundings.” Though the victims of the strong arm robbery were not injured, students at Ole Miss See ROBBERY, PAGE 4

Ole Miss captured its second Southeastern Conference win of the season this past Saturday against Arkansas. It was the Rebels’ fifth win of the season, and they are one win away from bowl eligibility with games against Georgia, Vanderbilt, LSU and Mississippi State remaining on the schedule.

For the first time since 2009, the Ole Miss Rebels got a conference victory on the road. The Rebels (5-3, 2-2 SEC) are now one win away from becoming bowl eligible
after defeating Arkansas (35, 2-3 SEC) 30-27 in Little Rock, Ark., at War Memorial Stadium. The win was an emotional one for the Rebels and it came down to the very last play of the game. The pressure fell on the shoulders of
senior kicker Bryson Rose, who had his struggles earlier in the season. “I think at the start of the year I tried to have such a great season and I focused on it so much, I forgot to have See REBELS , PAGE 9

Talk back to the teacher, get handcuffed. If you are a high school student in Meridian, this could very well happen to you. Wednesday, federal civil rights lawyers filed suit against Meridian, Miss., Lauderdale County, the county’s Youth Court judges and the Mississippi Division of Youth Services for denying students basic constitutional rights and sending them to court and incarcerating them for minor school infractions, calling it a “school-to-prison pipeline.” Some of the alleged unconstitutional acts are children being handcuffed and arrested in school and incarcerated for days without a probT H E D A I LY

able cause hearing, waiting for more than 48 hours for a hearing — in violation of constitutional requirements, children making admissions to formal charges without being advised of their Miranda rights, and not being routinely granted legal representation during the juvenile justice process. The school district was aware that they were under investigation and was even given a two-month warning to clean up its act or face a federal lawsuit. Attorneys suggest that the reasoning behind the strict punishment guidelines is racially charged. About 86 percent of the 6,000 students in the Lauderdale County School District are black, but all the students referred to the

court are black. This shows there is still a lingering tradition of disproportionately incarcerating blacks, especially in the state of Mississippi. Aside from the legal issues of not taking constitutional steps in processing the juveniles, the actions of the school district set a precedent with the kids that discrimination is alive and well in the state. Taking extreme measures in punishment and focusing it primarily on minorities will undoubtedly foster a resentment toward government officials and police officers in minority communities. Furthermore, the criminalization of children only leads to more criminals in the future. A more positive approach to correcting minors would be to foster a better environment

for learning as well as being more uplifting to children. Teach the students why what they did was wrong, have a conversation, make them do errands or work around the school while in detention, require them to do hours of community service, tutoring hours, etc. There are a long list of more appropriate, edifying “punishment” for minor school disruptions.

The current wiretapping case is not about wiretapping at all
BY BRITTANY SHARKEY brittsharkey@gmail.com
By and large, Amnesty International does good work. They represent the downtrodden and oppressed all over the world and bring attention to otherwise unknown human rights violations. Having said that, in a case currently before the Supreme Court, Amnesty International may have unintentionally blocked future plaintiffs from bringing cases about the U.S. government’s use of warrantless wiretapping. On Monday the Supreme Court will hear arguments in a case about the constitutionality of the warrantless wiretapping allowed under both the Bush and Obama national security regimes. Amnesty International alleges that the wiretapping is improper and that their employees
have had to make significant changes in the way they communicate with foreign contacts for fear of being subjected to the wiretapping. The issue the Supreme Court will be deciding has nothing to do with the legality of wiretapping, but whether or not Amnesty International had standing to bring the case in the first place. Legal wiretapping in this country is a thorny issue. Under the general guise of the Fourth Amendment, all citizens are protected from warrantless searches and seizures. Erosions of those rights, particularly in the name of national security or public safety, have normally been held to be constitutional. In 1978, Congress enacted the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), which was an attempt to regulate the President’s use of wiretapping for national security reasons. Under the act, instead of using a normal court to obtain a warrant, if a target of surveillance was associated with a foreign power, a warrant could be obtained
from the newly created Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Courts. Needless to say, the legal standards in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Courts are far more relaxed and it’s much easier to show sufficient probable cause to obtain a warrant for foreign surveillance. Under the Bush administration, there were challenges to FISA. In 2008, Congress enacted the FISA Amendments Act, which further lessened the standards required for wiretapping of foreign suspects. Instead of specific warrants for specific targets, blanket warrants were issued, and Americans who happened to get caught in the web of these communications could also have their communications observed without an additional warrant. Arguably, Amnesty International knew what they were doing when they filed their lawsuit. Many Americans probably don’t realize warrantless surveillance was still being used. While this lawsuit was an attempt to

Correction An article on the front page of Friday’s The Daily Mississippian about a Congressional debate incorrectly described comments made by candidate Brad Morris. Morris said that now is the wrong time to increase taxes on those earning $250,000 or less each year, and that the Bush tax cuts for people earning more than $1 million a year should expire.

call attention to that fact, legal precedent is not on their side. Standing is a requirement to bring a case, or put another way, the plaintiff has to have suffered some injury at the hands of the defendant in order to bring a claim. Recent judicial trends have narrowed rather than expanded the definition of standing, and the conservative makeup of the current Supreme Court seems unlikely to reverse that trend. Amnesty International has no argument that they have suffered an injury; the mere inconvenience of their employees is not enough. By bringing this case, they’re going to ensure that the definition of standing remains

limited and they will make it difficult for someone to bring a case about warrantless wiretapping even if they have suffered an actual injury. Amnesty International may have had good intentions when they filed their suit, but for someone convicted with evidence gathered from warrantless wiretapping, they may have a much different view of Amnesty International’s standing case.

are concerned about the situation. “I was definitely scared when I woke up to the email from UPD Saturday morning,” business sophomore Jessica Brown said. “My dad also got the email and called me to warn me. It’s scary to think that Oxford has people like that.” The suspect is described in the crime alert as a black male with black hair and
a slight mustache, 5-foot4 inches to 5-feet-6 inches tall and a skinny build. The suspect was wearing a white T-shirt with a pocket and baggy blue jeans. He wore a white flat bill hat with a red underbill. “We would encourage students to use common sense,” Dean of Students Sparky Reardon said. “While this is one of the safest campuses, we are not necessarily immune to incidents like this.” UPD urges students to review safety tips to avoid falling victim to a similar situation.

Members of Rebels for Christ at a recent meeting.
BY KALEB HILTON kdhilton@olemiss.edu
Rebels for Christ (RFC) is a campus ministry organization at The University of Mississipi and has been an active participant in campus ministry life since 1961. Student involvement with RFC varies from year to year and has more than 100 members, 80 percent of whom are undergrads. The organization’s home church is the Oxford Church of Christ where members have Sunday Bible studies. RFC convenes at the Alpha Omega Student Center across Jackson Avenue from Stockard and Martin Halls for Wednesday night Connects. Connects are weekly sessions that give students the opportunity to worship and discuss various social and theological issues. “The main goal (of RFC) is to tell students about Jesus and share why he is worth following, combining fun, social events with spiritual experiences,” RFC campus minister Casey
Coston said RFC. RFC also reaches abroad by giving aid to foreign countries in need. For the past two years, RFC members have traveled to Haiti to offer their help. “In Haiti, one of the big things is we’re trying to bring water purification there, cholera being a big problem,” Coston said. “For the last two years we’ve been able to install a water purification system to help bring clean water to communities.” RFC also hosts an annual Brian Dahl Birthday Ride (BDBR) in October and has a different Connect session planned for this week. The ride is in honor of Brian Dahl, an Ole Miss graduate, RFC member and avid biker who died in 2007. “Brian really cared about people, and he loved kids,” said Eric Dahl, Brian’s father. The ride features numerous different routes around town, the longest being a 55-mile route from Stone Park to Water Valley, Brian’s personal favorite. All donations are given to
Christian Relief Fund (CRF), a non-profit organization that focuses on rescuing orphans and other vulnerable children from poverty. “More and more people turn out every year,” Dahl said. A special Connect session is planned for Wednesday at 7 p.m. RFC will host special guest speaker Milton Jones, president and CEO of CRF. “Every year we have three children, two from Haiti and one from Africa, and our goal is to raise enough money the night of October 31 to sponsor all three,” said senior psychology and criminal justice major Sam Lyons. The special Connect will take place in the Student Union Ballroom. “We’re trying to have a wider outreach than we’ve had before,” said Coston. “What we’re doing with this event is giving (students) an opportunity to hear about what CRF does and why they might want to sponsor a child.”

Emerging leaders graduate from Leadership Lafayette The Oxford-Lafayette Chamber of Commerce graduated 19 young leaders from Leadership Lafayette, an eight-month program focused on leadership skill development and community service. BY HANNA JALAWAN hjalawan@yahoo.com
The Oxford-Lafayette Chamber of Commerce graduated 19 young leaders last week from its annual eightmonth leadership development program, Leadership Lafayette. Denson Hollis of the The University of Mississippi Foundation recently graduated from Leadership Lafayette. “It’s an eight month-long program that the Chamber of Commerce puts on and different organizations around the city nominate people within their organization to be in the class,” Hollis said. “Each meeting is held at various locations around town, and we learn about how these places interact with the community and different speakers from the community come around.” Elise Lee of Lee Family and Cosmetic Dentistry enjoyed participating in this year’s session. “We have the chance to meet local community leaders, poli-

President of the lacrosse team and English sophomore Rachel Zurheide said the team is trying to come to terms with Sarah’s death. “She is Ole Miss Lacrosse,” Zurheide said. “Her loss will be felt in the field.” Zurheide said the lacrosse team will play in Wheat’s honor at their tournament this weekend in Atlanta. She also plans to meet with Reardon to discuss planning a memorial. Jones said John was a hard worker and a loyal friend. “John was an inspiration to everyone around him,”
he said. “He could make me laugh in any situation and would always go out of his way to listen to me and be a good friend.” Jones also said there are no explanations for tragedies like this and all we can do “is try to gain meaning from it.” The loss of John and Sarah Wheat is close to the oneyear anniversary of when Ole Miss students Mason Wilbanks, Samuel Kelly and Walker Kelly were killed in a car accident. Reardon said this proximity is “a stark reminder of how fragile we are.” “No matter when it happens, it’s sad,” he said.

It’s a great learning experience, a good networking opportunity and an all-around really superb program.” Whitney McGraw of Kessinger Real Estate likewise recommends the program to young professionals. “I thought it was a great opportunity to learn about Oxford, especially if you’re not from here, and learn about different businesses,” McGraw said. “I’m definitely glad I did it and I would encourage other people to do it as well.”

Must-see Halloween movies II: The gore the merrier Last year I told you about some scary movies you should consider to get you in the Halloween spirit. Would you like some more of that? Good. I tried to make my choices a little more obscure this time in an effort to help you broaden your horizons. Just remember, it’s Halloween. Everyone’s entitled to one good scare.
By Josh Presley | Photos Courtesy MoviePosterDB.com The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 (2011) Just kidding. Yes, this is like the eighth time I’ve made that joke. Dog Soldiers (2002) As I said last year, there really aren’t that many great werewolf movies. Off the top of my head, I can name three. Last year, I mentioned “An American Werewolf in London,” and “Silver Bullet” is also up there. Then there’s “Dog Soldiers,” from Neil Marshall, the director of “The Descent.” Here’s all you need to know: Soldiers vs. Werewolves. It’s exactly as awesome as it sounds. Slither (2006) Like most things that Nathan Filion did before “Castle,” “Slither” was criminally overlooked when it was released back during my first stay at Ole Miss because, yes, I’m that old. Basically, alien parasites attempt to take over a small town and it’s up to Sheriff Fillion and his girlfriend Elizabeth Banks to deal with the problem. Not interested yet? Why are you even reading one of my columns, then? Hatchet (2006) Billed as “Old School American Horror,” this movie certainly lives up to that mantra. “Hatchet” is a loving tribute the to slasher genre, even pulling out some old favorites like Robert Englund, Tony Todd and Kane Hod-
der. “Hatchet” is probably the most fun you’ll ever have watching people be mercilessly hacked to death by a grotesque, swamp-dwelling, disfigured behemoth. This is one of the most fun horror movies I’ve ever seen. As is often the case, avoid the sequel at all costs. Trick ‘r Treat (2007) This movie recalls anthology films like “Creepshow,” and “Tales From the Crypt,” but at some point it goes beyond those and does its own thing. “Trick ‘r Treat” was never released in theater, which is a shame, because other than “Halloween,” I can’t think of another movie that captures the Halloween spirit quite like this one. It begins by telling a series of separate stories but you learn they might not be so separate, and they all take place on Halloween night. If I’m being vague it’s because I don’t want to ruin it. Netflix this baby. Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (2007) This movie is a breath of fresh air. The slasher genre hasn’t meant much since “Scream” came along and ruined it, but some movies (such as the aforementioned “Hatchet”) still believe the slasher is king. “Behind the Mask” is an interesting animal, as the first half is mostly comedic in nature. The movie takes place in a world
where slashers like Jason, Freddy and Michael Myers really exist, and aspiring serial killer Leslie Vernon invites a student film crew along to document his reign of terror. It’s an ingenious (and ingeniously silly) concept that turns to horror at precisely the right moment. Where’s my sequel? Exorcist III (1990) Speaking of sequels, here’s one that shouldn’t even exist, let alone be good. “The Exorcist” needed a sequel about like I need another parking ticket, but it’s had three, and two of those three (“Exorcist II: The Heretic” and “Exorcist: The Beginning”) set new standards of awful. “Exorcist III,” however, is a modern marvel. It’s a sequel that has almost nothing to do with the original but comes very close to matching it. I’ve mentioned before that “Halloween” is my all-time favorite horror film, but “Exorcist III” is in my top five. This movie creates such a feeling of dread, that I, a grown man, shudder at the thought of watch it. You can have your “Paranormal Activity 9: Paranormal Activity on the Moon;” I’ll take “Exorcist III” any day. It has a taut, suspenseful, and frightening story with a strong sense of dread throughout, and also features the single best jump-scare in movie history.

fun,” Rose said. “That’s the main thing. I talked to my dad and some other people and they just told me to have fun with it; that’s the main thing.” Rose had already connected on kicks of 27 and 53 yards, a career-long, in the game before his final attempt of 31 yards. “I was out there with Chris Conley, the holder, and he was just making me comfortable,” Rose said. “He was telling me jokes to keep me calm and cool.” Rose was just that and drilled the game-winning field goal. “I hit it then I looked up and I had everyone jumping on me,” Rose said. “I didn’t even watch it go through. It is an awesome experience.” With the win, Freeze and his staff believe that it is a sign of things to come for the program. “It’s a good sign for sure,” Freeze said. “You’ll never get me to say that we’ve arrived anywhere. We are still on a journey, we’re still young and inexperienced, but our coaching staff, our strength staff, our support staff has done a remarkable job with building relationships with these kids where there is some trust being built and obviously the kids deserve most of the credit for bouncing back from a very difficult loss, particularly the ones who were here during the two lean years that they had been in. They easily could have gone the other way, but obviously they made a decision that we are going to fight for 60 minutes and see what the scoreboard says.” Ole Miss has turned the tables from years past and is playing with newfound confidence, courage and character on the field this season. Freeze said he isn’t surprised by the team’s turnaround. “I just kind of expect that,” Freeze said. “I think if we car-
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Ole Miss women’s cross country team raced to their best finish in school history Friday morning, earning fourth place at the 2012 Southeastern Conference Championships. Katie Breathitt led the women’s team with a ninth-place finish, which marks the best individual finish in Ole Miss women’s cross country history. The senior claimed All-SEC second team honors for her performance, becoming the second woman in program history to receive that distinction. The Lexington, Ky., native completed the 6K course with a personal-best time of 20:45.16. “We are tremendously excited and proud of our women,” said first-year head coach Brian O’Neal. “They went out and competed exactly how we’ve talked about all season long. We told them to put their heart on the line and realize they’re not just competing for themselves or their team, but this university.” Fellow senior Anne Threlkeld raced to a personalbest 16th-place finish, just two spots shy of earning All-SEC honors.

ner followed in 21st place with a time of 21:19.39. Sophomore Haley Cutright was the next Rebel to reach the finish line, placing 33rd overall with a time of 21:34.35. Senior Kelsey Breathitt, Katie’s twin sister, finished in 44th place with a time of 21:44.42. “Hats off to Katie for earning All-SEC honors,” O’Neal said. “Anne and Kayleigh were just off of the All-SEC mark. I’m tremendously proud of how well we ran.” Junior Max Holman was the first of the Ole Miss men to reach the finish line, helping the team to a 10th-place result. He completed the 8K course with a time of 25:14.31, placing 44th. Sophomore Loren Newsom followed in 55th place and a time of 25:29.41. “We’re extremely thin in terms of depth on the men’s side and we knew that coming in,” O’Neal said. “They competed hard and gave us absolutely everything they had. We just didn’t have the number to have the same results that the ladies did. I’m extremely proud of how hard they competed and raced. Results aren’t indicative of the day they had.”

Ole Miss turned Nkemdiche’s interception into three points on Rose’s first field goal of the game, a 27-yarder, to extend the lead to 24-17 — a score that would hold through the end of the third quarter. Arkansas entered the red zone early in the fourth quarter, but Ole Miss held the Razorbacks to a field goal. On their next drive, the Rebels

Wallace said he felt great pressure on the final drive, even thinking about the interception he threw on the final drive of the Texas A&M game. “I was thinking to myself, ‘Don’t make one mistake that will cost us this football game,’” said Wallace, who completed a career-best 29 passes on a career-high 37 attempts for 278 yards and touchdown. “It was in the back of my head.

both were critical. I thought for us to get that touchdown there was really big.” In the second quarter, the Rebels outscored the Razorbacks 21-7, but Freeze and his staff were still very upset about the defense’s effort in that first half. “We made some missed assignments,” defensive coordinator Dave Wommack said of the defense in the first half. “We were trying to focus on (senior wide receiver Kobi Hamilton) and (senior tight end Chris Gragg) and some guys got their eyes tied up the wrong way and they hit a couple big plays. We just settled the kids down at halftime and did a couple things differently and just eased into the game.” Both defenses came out of the locker room strong, forcing a combined five punts to start the third quarter. Then on Arkansas’ third drive of the second half, redshirt freshman linebacker Denzel Nkemdiche intercepted Wilson’s pass at the 50, and returned it 18 yards to the Arkansas 32-yard line. “The pick was awesome,” Nkemdiche said. “I just wanted to make a play for my teammates, and when I saw the ball coming and I made that play, I was like, ‘Alright, we’re going to win this game.’ I got every-
14-yard line with three ticks left on the clock. Freeze called a timeout, and the field goal unit trotted onto the field. When asked what he told Rose before the kick, Freeze answered, “I didn’t get around him. That’s one of my no-no’s.” After an Arkansas timeout to try to ice the kicker, Rose nailed the 31-yard field goal as time expired, the first gamewinning kick of his career. “It happened so fast, I didn’t have time to think about it,” Rose, who was a perfect 3-of-3 on field goals from 27, 53 and 31 yards, said with a smile after the game. “I hit it, and I looked up and had everyone jump on me. (The 53-yard kick) gave me a lot of confidence going into this one.” With this win, Ole Miss is just one win away from bowl eligibility, and plays at No. 7 Georgia next Saturday in Athens, Ga. Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. on CBS, the Rebels’ first SEC game on CBS since the 2010 season. “Well, I won’t talk about bowl eligibility,” Freeze said. “The people that pick all that before the season can’t judge the heart or soul of a kid, a team or the chemistry. Attitude for us is not what other people say about us, but it’s what we choose to believe about us. If you don’t have chemistry, sometimes talent doesn’t win. I think we have good chemistry right now.”

Volleyball falls in straight sets to Auburn The Ole Miss Lady Rebels lost in straight sets, 3-0, to Auburn in their lone match this weekend on Sunday. With the loss, Ole Miss falls to 10-11, 4-8 in Southeastern Conference play. BY CAMAL PERTRO cppetro@go.olemiss.edu
Auburn traveled to Oxford to play Ole Miss on Sunday and left with a straight-set Southeastern Conference victory (25-16, 25-19, 25-19). Ole Miss (10-11, 4-8 SEC) could not stop Auburn (15-8, 6-7 SEC) senior outside hitter Sarah Bullock, who tallied 17 kills on 41 total attacks with 14 digs. “My hat’s off to Auburn,” head coach Joe Getzin said. “They played a very good match they were very much in system the whole day. I don’t know if it’s the little bit of time off, we just did not click at all. When your setter is the leading attacker on the team, that means you have some issues.” Senior setter Amanda Philpot led Ole Miss offensively with seven kills and 18 assists. Senior outside hitter Allegra Wells, who missed the previous weekend’s matches due to illness, had four kills on seven total attacks in the game. “I just don’t think we came to play,” Philpot said. “We were here but weren’t playing our game at all.” In what turned out to be a lopsided set, Auburn downed the Lady Rebels in set one, 25-16. The Rebels started the first set on fire, jumping out to a 6-2 lead, but the Tigers quickly recovered with runs of 6-0 and 5-0 in the set. Auburn dominated the kill category, 18-10, led by Bullock’s seven kills in the set. Senior setter Amanda Philpot and senior outside hitter Ashley Anderson both recorded three kills to lead Ole Miss. A dismal start plagued Ole Miss in the second set, losing 25-19. Auburn jumped out to an early 4-0 lead and built

a 12-4 lead. The Lady Rebels showed some fight, cutting the lead to 19-16, but it was not enough as the Tigers scored five of the last seven points to close out the set. Ole Miss again had no answer for Auburn’s Bullock, who killed eight balls and recorded eight digs in the set. Philpot and Anderson led Ole Miss in kills with two apiece. “They attacked very well today,” Getzin said. “We were just a step slow today.” Like the first set, Ole Miss

A new SEC streak begins THOMAS GRANING | The Daily Mississippian
Ole Miss improved to 5-3, one win shy of bowl eligibility, with a 30-27 win against Arkansas in Little Rock on Saturday. Sophomore quarterback Bo Wallace completed a career-best 29 passes for 278 yards and touchdown, junior cornerback Charles Sawyer intercepted a pass and blocked a punt, and senior Bryson Rose was a perfect 3-of-3 on field goals, including the 31-yard game-winner to lead the Rebels. BY ADAM GANUCHEAU thedmnews@gmail.com
The Ole Miss Rebels defeated the Arkansas Razorbacks 30-27 on Saturday on the foot of senior Bryson Rose’s 31yard field goal as time expired. While Rose was carried off the field in triumph, the Rebels’ second-straight Southeastern Conference victory was much more than a one-man job. “Our character trait this week in our program was courage,” Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze said in the postgame
press conference. “I thought our football team, every facet of it, made a play at some point that really meant a lot to the outcome of the game.” The Rebels (5-3, 2-2 SEC) started in 10-0 hole after the Razorbacks’ (3-5, 2-3) first two drives as Arkansas senior Tyler Wilson shredded the Ole Miss defense, which included a 42-yard touchdown pass to senior tight end Chris Gragg. Ole Miss moved the ball well on its second drive, but a fumbled quarterback-running back exchange by sophomore quar-
terback Bo Wallace and senior running back Randall Mackey turned the ball over to Arkansas. The Rebels’ defense held and forced a three-and-out, their first stop of the game. Ole Miss finally got on the board with a four-yard touchdown pass from Wallace to sophomore wide receiver Vince Sanders, the first touchdown of his career, to cut Arkansas’ lead to 10-7 The next drive, Wilson and Arkansas were driving again until junior cornerback Charles Sawyer intercepted a pass from

Wilson at the Ole Miss 5-yard line. Wallace threw an interception just five plays later, giving Arkansas the ball on the Ole Miss 34-yard line. Pressure from senior defensive end Jason Jones forced an intentional grounding penalty, moving the Razorbacks back to the Ole Miss 46-yard line. The Rebels held and forced a punt, which Sawyer blocked, recovered and returned to the Arkansas 22-yard line. “I just saw the ball, honestly,” Sawyer said of the blocked punt. “We ran (that play) the first time, and I just told (Freeze), you know, ‘That man’s blocking down.’ That (play) was designed.” Ole Miss carried the momentum from the blocked punt and
found the end zone four plays later on a one-yard quarterback keeper by junior quarterback Barry Brunetti to give the Rebels a 14-10 lead. Arkansas answered with a long touchdown drive, making the score 17-14 with 1:21 to play in the first half. In a drive similar to the one before the half against Auburn two weeks ago, Ole Miss moved the ball quickly and effectively in its twominute drill. The Rebels ran 10 plays in 61 seconds, capped by one-yard touchdown run by junior running back Jeff Scott, to take a 21-17 lead into halftime. “We’ve (scored right before halftime) in the last two weeks,” Freeze said. “I thought See STREAK, PAGE 10
