In addition, Ole Miss has posted four sacks after none in the opener, including the first career sacks for Allen Walker, Jonathan Cornell and Lawon Scott. 4:50 p.m. ET: Ole Miss takes the lead into halftime for the second straight game with a 14-10 advantage. The Rebels are bidding for the first win over a ranked opponent since the 31-28 victory over No. 25 South Carolina in 2004, which was also on the road. 4:42 p.m. ET: Senior DE Jermey Parnell sees his first action on the Rebel football team. Parnell was a four-year letterwinner on the Ole Miss basketball team. 4:23 p.m. ET: After narrowly avoiding a sack off a corner blitz, Snead flung the ball 28 yards into the endzone, where Shay Hodge took it away from the defender for the TD. Hodge has three touchdowns in the first two games. 4:01 p.m. ET: First-year Rebel TE Gerald Harris records his second career reception and it is his first TD on a four-yard toss from Jevan Snead. It capped a nine play, 94 yard drive that lasted 3:39. The touchdown was set up by a double reverse out of the Wild Rebel that resulted in a 33-yard sideline pass from Snead to Brandon Bolden down to the four-yardline. Harris' TD was the first by a Rebel tight end since Lawrence Lilly in the 2006 Auburn game. 3:43 p.m. ET: Mike Wallace just hauled in his first pass of the year and had a 50-yard TD catch sail just beyond his fingertips on the next play. 3:30 p.m. ET: Peria Jerry is back in uniform and serving as a team captain along with Michael Oher, Jason Cook and Jamarca Sanford. The Rebels are in their traditional road white jerseys with red shoulder stripes and gray pants. 3:10 p.m. ET: It's 20 minutes to kickoff and so much for the forecasted bad weather. It's currently 87 degrees and sunny with barely a cloud in the sky. BB&T Field seats 31,500 and is debuting its brand new Deacon Tower, which is being billed as one of the nation's finest press facilities. One interesting feature of the stadium, the south end zone is a grassy hill filled with Wake fans lounging on blankets.
