Spring Football Notes And Observations: Offense

Ole Miss wrapped up its Spring football season Saturday with an offense-heavy Grove Bowl scrimmage that created more questions than it answered about the Rebel squad that will take the field this Fall. It seems as if college football coaches are increasingly apathetic about Spring intrasquad games, and Lane Kiffin seems especially intent to make them as frivolous as possible. With maybe the most intriguing quarterback battle in all of college football going on in Oxford, the Grove Bowl was disappointing in how casual and sloppy it was; the players and fans both deserved a more intense real-game experience to wrap up Spring training, but a comically grim injury situation, plus Kiffin’s aforementioned apathy made it obvious that there were relatively few real conclusions to be drawn from the Grove Bowl.
