Last week at Southeastern Conference Media Days, head coach Matt Luke said the Ole Miss football team needed to start fast and focus on the first game. Clearly, this is partially typical coach-speak you should expect from the annual bonanza known as SEC Media Days, but the Cup couldn’t help but agree vehemently with the second year head coach (or is it third year?).
If the Rebels are to make it to its first bowl game since 2016, the first four games of the season need to be wins, or at the very least, extremely competitive for the psyche of this young team.
