What's the Fuss?

Florida is a 23-point favorite over Mississippi, according to the latest line from Harrahs.

Ole Miss running back Enrique Davis rushed for 25 yards on seven carries in Saturday’s 23-17 loss to Vanderbilt.

He averaged 3.6 yards per carry.

At one point late in the first half, the former Mosley All-American had three consecutive rushes for eight yards before the clock expired.

Through four games, Davis has rushed for 86 yards on 25 carries for the Rebels (2-2). He’s averaging 21.5 yards per game and is tied for the team lead with two touchdowns.

Mississippi plays at Florida on Saturday.

The former Mosley All-American got back on track this week with seven rushes for 36 yards in Mississippi’s 34-10 win over Samford.

He scored his second touchdown of the year with 11 minutes, 10 seconds left in the third quarter on a four-yard run that put the Rebels ahead 27-7. He averaged 5.1 yards per carry Saturday and had a long run of 14 yards.

For the season, Davis has 18 carries for 61 yards and two scores. He’s averaging 3.4 yards per carry and 20.3 yards per game.

Here’s the docket for this week’s SEC games. My picks for Games of the Week are bolded.

All Times Central

Saturday, Sept. 13
UAB at Tennessee, 11:30 a.m., Raycom - The Volunteers are coming off an upset by UCLA, with a bye week to boot. They have something to prove. Watch out Blazers.

Georgia at South Carolina, 2:30 p.m., CBS - The Bulldogs’ first real test this season. The Gamecocks can’t find a rhythm at quarterback. Georgia is going to try to prove why it should still be No. 1.

Arkansas at Texas, 2:30 p.m., ABC - Postponed until Sept. 27. Thanks, Ike.

Auburn at Mississippi State, 6 p.m., ESPN2 - National title talk is going through Auburn and Mississippi State is already considered a fluke from after last season’s bowl appearance. This could be make or break for the Bulldogs, while the Tigers continue to run a new spread offense to near domination.

Middle Tennessee at Kentucky, 6 p.m. - The Blue Raiders are coming off an upset of Maryland, but the Wildcats’ defense — the only one in the SEC to not allow a TD this season — will quiet all suspects of a BCS crasher.

Samford at Ole Miss, 6 p.m. - The Rebels are mad after losing to Wake Forest Sat-urday in a game they should have won.

Rice at Vanderbilt, 6 p.m. - The Commodores are riding high at 2-0 and an upset of then-No. 24 South Carolina. Let’s just hope they don’t play down to their opponent this week.

Western Kentucky at Alabama, 6:07 p.m., PPV - The Crimson Tide keep on rolling up the polls and will give the Hilltoppers a true welcome to the Bowl Subdivision.

North Texas at LSU, 7 p.m. - The Tigers haven’t played in two weeks and this week’s game nearly got postponed too because of Hurricane Ike. They’re hungry.

Enrique Davis’ second college football game wasn’t as impressive as his first. The Mosley graduate rusehd for just 2 yards on five carries Saturday in a 30-28 loss to Wake Forest.

That’s a .2 yards per carry average.

He did gain 6 yards, but was recorded for losing five throughout the game.

The Rebels play Samford at 6 p.m. CDT on Saturday.
