When Ole Miss trailed Central Arkansas 20-14 at halftime of the first game of the year, it certainly didn't seem like Ole Miss was going to be headed to a bowl game this postseason. Hugh Freeze had taken over a post-Houston Nutt team, and there's oftentimes work involved in that process, and the first game was an indication that there was more work to be done.
Facing an even more difficult dilemma, several hundred miles up the eastern side of the country and far away from the minds of most SEC fans, was Pittsburgh. The Panthers actually ended up losing to their FCS cupcake, and Youngstown State's 31-17 victory didn't necessarily look like a fluke.
