Linebacker Serderius Bryant and spur Keith Lewis, both freshmen, were running first team in practice Tuesday at Ole Miss and will have a chance to start against Kentucky this week.

Also running with the first team was freshman Cody Prewitt at safety. Coaches have raved about Prewitt, but his playing time has been less because of a hand injury sustained a few weeks ago. The protective club he was wearing has been removed, and Prewitt could replace Damien Jackson at strong safety this week.

Jackson was victimized on a couple of long passes against Auburn.

"The final decisions will not be made until Thursday, so they have to keep competing, but we are leaning that way right now," Ole Miss defensive coordinator Tyrone Nix said.
