“They beat us soundly in all three phases,” head coach Matt Luke said to open Monday’s press conference, following Saturday’s 66-3 loss to No. 1 Alabama.
The Rebels were never really in the game from the start, and missed opportunities and failure to execute culminated into an ugly defeat for them. Coming out of the loss, the coaching staff is trying to find answers.
“The biggest thing now is to just build our confidence back so we can play fast,” Luke said. “We didn’t play very fast, and we weren’t very sure of ourselves. We need to go back, simplify, make the corrections and move on.
