Ole Miss offense identifies problem areas

In the loss to Florida, the offensive line for the Ole Miss Rebels struggled all night against a very talented Gators defensive front that head coach Hugh Freeze said he was worried about facing.

The run game wasn’t great, but much of that can be attributed to the Rebels playing from behind and having to attempt to score quickly through the air. On those passing plays, however, quarterback Chad Kelly was constantly under pressure having to hurry his throws, finishing the game 26 out of 40 passing for one touchdown and one interception.

“They were a very quick, attacking defense up front, and we got behind and had to throw it,” co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Matt Luke said.
