After testing positive for COVID-19, Lane Kiffin was forced to stay in Oxford while his team opened the season against Louisville in Atlanta. But that didn’t hold the Rebels back at all.
Ole Miss had no problem putting up big numbers without their head coach, as they totaled 569 yards on offense.
Matt Corral had a terrific performance, throwing for 381 yards and one touchdown. Along with those numbers, he rushed for 55 yards and earned himself one rushing touchdown.
Corral didn’t run much last season, so having the ability to use his legs makes him a more versatile quarterback.
