In one week, the fortunes of both Ole Miss and Texas A&M changed dramatically, as the Rebels’ quarterback Chad Kelly went down with a season-ending knee injury, and the Aggies quarterback Trevor Knight suffered a season-ending shoulder injury. Instead of a matchup between two of the SEC’s most dynamic quarterbacks, we’ll see which team can field the best replacement quarterback in a battle of the backups on the historic Kyle Field.
While it’s still not known who will go under center for Ole Miss, Texas A&M will play junior Jake Hubenak, who completed 11 of his 17 passes for two touchdowns and one interception in the second half of the Aggies’ loss to Mississippi State.
