Following a 1-0 loss to the No. 7 ranked Florida Gators, the No. 20 Rebel soccer team bounced back to defeat a stout Georgia Bulldog squad. The victory marks Ole Miss’ first SEC win of the season.

“I think giving them two days off and giving them time to recoup and relax was huge,” head coach Matt Mott said. “In soccer, you need 60 hours to recover from a 90 minute game.”

Two days of rest allowed the players plenty of time to recover before returning to practice on Monday.
