Ole Miss chance of playing for an SEC championship and keeping their playoff hopes alive was officially ended after losing to Alabama, 30-24.
Ole Miss still fields a good team, and until they hit a wall in Baton Rouge against LSU, their season had National Championship hopes attached to it. Ole Miss run during the early stage of the Collge Football season showed how good this team could be.
Arkansas will have its hands full on Saturday.
Lane Kiffin grabbing Jaxson Dart out of the transfer portal may have been what the doctor ordered for hotty toddy. Dart, in his sophomore season, reignited his career after joining Kiffin. Entering USC as one of the highly touted freshmen in the 2020 class, but after three underwhelming starts, he decided to head south to the SEC.
Kiffin being the offensive genius he is, having a young quarterback like Dart is dangerous for opposing teams, and it’s shown. While Dart’s numbers are not eye-popping, watching him play, you understand why he was the Gatorade High School Player of the Year.
Quinshon Judkins is an All-American form, rushing for 15 touchdowns in 10 games, along with 1,121 yards on the ground. The freshman had an impressive rushing performance against Alabama, rushing for 135 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries, his fifth straight game with 25-plus carries.
Ole Miss offense doesn’t have a strong pass block which was exposed against Alabama. Forcing Ole Miss into a primary pass situation offense, is where you can find advantages on defense. Still, they are very good at adjusting and making plays in the offense, thanks to Dart’s ability and talented receivers, scoring 40-plus five times this season.
