This is being sold on the spectacle. It is taking place, organizers hope, at the feet of the Pyramids of Giza. ‘What a sight that will be,’ they say. Well, that might indeed be true. Yet the truth is that anything at all happening in such a setting, whether children squabbling or even just a bird taking a shit, would be a ‘sight’.

Ole Miss football enjoyed strong quarterback play in the 2000s with Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning and Jevan Snead, but in an era defined by bigger personnel and traditional drop-back passing, the Rebels struggled to find consistent production under center from year to year. In the early 2010s, Ole Miss football wasn’t just stuck at the bottom of the SEC, but it was also buried in the cellar of all of Division I. That changed when Hugh Freeze arrived in Oxford, unleashing a high-tempo offense built to isolate big, physical receivers in one-on-one matchups. He also landed a transfer quarterback…

The Nebraska star retired after his victory over Canelo Alvarez in Las Vegas last year and turns 39 this September.
