A 1-2 start was never going to feel great for Ole Miss, but it was also the most logical outcome given the elite teams the Rebels have had to face early on. Blowing a pair of three-touchdown leads makes it sting even more, but I believe the reasons for Ole Miss unraveling twice in three weeks are a mixture of their own self-destruction and shortcomings, as well as a natural byproduct of facing decidedly good teams and deeper rosters. It may be worth looking into what exactly went wrong against Alabama and determining what the coaching staff has actual control over to avoid some similar implosion and leverage the team’s strengths over the rest of the season.
Ole Miss may have confirmed its offensive identity in the loss to Alabama
