Mississippi Head Coach Matt Luke entered the 2017 football season with a goal of simplifying the team’s offense to suit his personnel. As we have seen the last two weeks, Ole Miss can now add the defense to the list of confusion among its players.
The coaching staff will spend this week trying to alleviate any more confusion as to the play calls from the sideline by scaling back the game plan.
Obviously, neither the offense nor the defense was effective inside Bryant-Denny Stadium in Alabama’s 66-3 rout. Luke intimated Monday at his weekly press availability he would do even more scaling down of the offensive approach as the team travels to face 15th ranked Auburn on Saturday.
