Sugar Bowl Prep

Mason Rudolph looks pretty good right now. [PFB]

Mike Gundy: “We think Ole Miss is a very good football team. Defensively, they’re fast. They’re big up front. The quarterback (Chad Kelly) is very competitive and successful. They have great wideouts. I’m excited about watching our defense compete. We’ve worked really hard the last couple of weeks, and I think they’ll be fresh and run to the football. Offensively, it will be interesting to see what we come up with — potentially playing two quarterbacks more than what we have throughout the year.” [Tulsa World]
