OXFORD, Miss. -- Mississippis rise in the Southeastern Conference has turned the Rebels into a formidable opponent for just about everyone in the leagues Western Division.Arkansas, however, remains the programs kryptonite.The Razorbacks are the only program to beat Ole Miss in each of the past two seasons, both times putting a huge dent in the Rebels aspirations of finally making a trip to Atlanta for the Southeastern Conference championship game.No. 12 Ole Miss (3-2, 1-1 Southeastern Conference) travels to face No. 22 Arkansas (4-2, 0-2) on Saturday.Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze readily acknowledges that the Razorbacks always cause problems for the Rebels.I think matchups are important in college football, Freeze said. Sometimes you look at them and feel `Oh I like this matchup and then other teams seem to give you more of a problem.Theyve been that to us the past few years.Though Ole Miss has lost two in a row to Arkansas, the losses couldnt have been much more different. The Rebels suffered one of the worst defeats in Freezes tenure in 2014, when Arkansas crushed Ole Miss 30-0 in Fayetteville, in a game that wasnt even close to competitive.That was a tough day, Ole Miss tight end Evan Engram said. I dont really think about that game too much because of how bad it was. But were definitely looking forward to getting back to Fayetteville and having a better result.Last years game was much more competitive, but ultimately a heartbreaker for the Rebels. Arkansas beat Ole Miss 53-52 in overtime in a game that featured several crazy plays, including Arkansas converting on a 4th-and-25 situation when Hunter Henry lateralled to Alex Collins for a first down that kept the game alive.The loss was the main reason that Alabama -- and not the Rebels -- was the Wests representative in the SEC championship game.They fight 60 minutes, Engram said. Arkansas, since Ive been here, is probably the most relentless, sound, fighting football team Ive played.Ole Miss gets its chance against Arkansas this season after having a week off to rest. The Rebels havent played since Oct. 8, when they beat Memphis 48-28.Ole Miss has shown it has one of the best offenses in the SEC, especially in the passing game. But the Rebels have also had a porous defense that ranks at or near the bottom of the league in several categories.That could be an issue against Arkansas. The Razorbacks have been one of the better offensive teams in the league this season, especially when throwing the ball.Junior Austin Allen has thrown for 1,232 yards, 12 touchdowns and just two interceptions this season. He leads the SEC in passing efficiency.Even with the recent history between the two programs, Freeze says he doesnt expect to hear much from players or coaches about getting revenge. He says most of that talk is counter-productive.I dont really buy into that, Freeze said. I buy into, heres the plan that gives us the best chance to succeed and now weve got to make sure we understand and can efficiently do it. That will be our focus.---Follow David Brandt on Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbrandtAP .---AP College Football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org .Cheap China Jerseys . -- Los Angeles Lakers guard Jordan Farmar will be out for roughly four weeks after tearing his left hamstring.

During the athletes parade, the 23-strong Ukrainian team was represented by a lone flagbearer in an apparent protest at the presence of Russian troops in Ukraines Crimean peninsula.SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Paul Goydos shot an 8-under 62 on Friday in windy conditions to take a three-stroke lead in the PGA Tour Champions season-ending Charles Schwab Cup Championship.The 52-year-old Goydos holed out from 167 yards for eagle on the par-4 12th and closed with birdies on the par-3 17th and par-5 18th on Desert Mountain Clubs Cochise Course.It started off hard, it calmed down a little bit as the day progressed, Goydos said. In tough conditions we need to do good things. I made a bomb on the first hole for birdie, which kind of maybe relaxes you a little bit. I thought if I shot under par today, youd have a good day.You knew the first five or six holes were going to be difficult, and to get a birdie early kind of calms you down. Actually, there were two. I made about a 12-footer for par after a mediocre iron shot. If I dont make that, I might shoot 70 today, but I made that putt and kept the momentum going.Colin Montgomerie, third in Charles Schwab Cup season standings, was second. The Scot birdied the final two holes.I must say Paul Goydos score this morning, because it was windy this morning, I think that 8 under this morning was one of the best scores weve seen all year, Montgomerie said. Tremendous score. Even to get within three for me was a delight.Points leader Bernhard Langer topped the group at 67.I actually played very nicely, Langer said. I maybe hit two bad 5 irons, came out of it a little bit and that was it. One resulted in a bogey and the other one I three-putted for bogey. But the rest of the day I hit the ball very solid, gave myself opportunities and just didnt make a whole lot of putts. ... Not too far behind, right there to still challenge for the championship.The top five in the standings -- Richmond winner Scott McCarron is second, followed by Montgomerie, Joe Durant and Miguel Angel Jimenez -- can take the season title with a victory Sunday. McCarron holed out from the fairway for eagle on the par-5 15th in a 69. Durant shot 70, and Jimenez had a 74.Im a scoreboard watcher and I know exactly whats going on, especially with my German friend behind and Scott McCarron and Joe and also Miguel, Montgomerie said.dddddddddddd Its just great to get in after just one round ahead of these guys at least to give myself a chance.Tom Pernice Jr., the winner of the playoff opener two weeks ago in California, also was at 67 along with Paul Broadhurst and Duffy Waldorf.The season standings were reset after the event last week in Virginia, with Langers lead over McCarron reduced from 935,657 to 200. The tournament winner will receive $440,000 and 2,000 points.Langer is recovering from a left knee injury that forced him to withdraw from the playoff opener at Sherwood, The 59-year-old German has a tour-high four victories and has wrapped up the season money title with $2,836,459. He won season titles in 2010, 2014 and 2015.Goydos entered the week 24th in the standings. He birdied four of the last five holes in a front-nine 30, and bogeyed the par-4 10th.I messed up 10 a little bit, made a bad swing and thats going to happen, Goydos said. Its hard to be perfect in tougher conditions.He rebounded with the eagle on 12.On the fly, didnt damage the cup, couldnt have been more center cup, Goydos said. It didnt even touch the cup. I had 167 yards, a 6-iron into the wind. It wasnt blowing too hard.The two-time PGA Tour winner won the Dicks Sporting Goods Open in July for his third senior title. He shot a 59 in the PGA Tours 2010 John Deere Classic.I remember when I did the 59 group and I talked to Annika (Sorenstam) about it, talked about being in the zone, Goydos said. When you play good, youre always in the present. Youre not worried about what youre shooting, youre worried about the shot at hand. Youre not worried about the green or the bunkers or whatevers up there, youre worried about your target and making a good swing.Today, I was very much in the present almost the entire day and that tends to be at least one of the prerequisites to playing good and then good things happen.
