Chad Kelly breaks Eli Manning school record against Georgia

Ole Miss quarterback Chad Kelly broke a school record held by Eli Manning against Georgia on Saturday.

Last week, Kelly tied the record in a 48-43 loss to top-ranked Alabama.

Kelly, a senior, began his streak in last year’s season opener against UT-Martin, his first career game at Ole Miss. Previously, he had played at Clemson before transferring to junior college.
