So much of predicting how Ole Miss will fare on offense in 2017 entails looking at what pieces they’re bringing back, and despite not having much returning production on the surface, there may be enough talent at the skill positions to make up for that.
That doesn’t take into consideration the state of the offensive line, and given how much Matt Luke’s group has determined the fate of the entire team in the past, they deserve a closer look.
On its own, having an offensive line with lots of starts the previous year doesn’t necessarily correlate heavily with future success, and it’s tricky in general to project a line’s impact with limited numbers.
