Road to History: Elijah Moore remains on pace and then some to obliterate the record book

Folks, it’s very likely we are witness to the greatest season a wide receiver has ever had at Ole Miss in Elijah Moore.

After Saturday’s thrashing of Sakerlina, Moore became the quickest player in Ole Miss history to reach 1,000 yards (only seven games!). He now stands just a few hundred yards away from the single season record for yards with three games left to play, plus he is only 11 catches short of the single season reception record.

All in less games. All in conference only play.

It’s mind boggling a player who stands just 5-foot-9 and 185-pounds continues to:

  1. Get open
  2. Catch almost everything
  3. Smash records held by current NFL wide receivers.
