Bitter ending to a sweet season: Rebels fall 21-7 to Baylor in Allstate Sugar Bowl

[NEW ORLEANS] In his final game at the helm of the Ole Miss offense, Matt Corral suffered a game-ending injury in the first quarter. Corral’s lower-leg injury proved to be too detrimental for the Rebels to bounce back from, falling to the Baylor Bears 21-7.

After an offensive turnover on the first drive of the game, the Landshark defense came up with a huge fourth down stop to bring the momentum back.
