Whatever the gamut of emotions that ran through Oxford Saturday against Alabama, Ole Miss fans should know that a 48-43 loss to RollTide isn’t cause for immediate and irreversible self-immolation. This is still a potent football team. Red Cup’s staff even projected the Rebs to go 1-2 through this stretch of the season, where the team is currently averaging 38.3 points per game.
Jason Kirk’s way-too-early bowl projections still have Ole Miss in the Sugar Bowl against Baylor. 10-2 or 9-3 is still not out of the question in 2016, but some serious game-plan concerns have been exposed in the early going.
