After giving up a touchdown on the opening drive of the game -- one that was likely scripted -- it shut out the Tigers despite the fact that LSU came in with a ton of confidence after an offensive explosion last week. The middle 10 -- the last 5 minutes of the first half and the first 5 minutes of the second half -- can be the most critical part of a football game. The Rebels held the Tigers to two three-and-outs and a one-play drive to end the half during that segment of the game.
Ole Miss then followed it up with a pair of fumble recoveries surrounding a three-and-out. That's the kind of situational defense that Ole Miss needs to be elite. Now, it's time to keep it going. It's clear at this point that the offense is a weapon that most teams can't slow down. The best chance opponents have at beating Ole Miss is to get into a shootout. That's nearly impossible if the Rebels defense plays like the Bears when it matters most. That chaos could continue too.
The school announced its impending separation from Orgeron one day after the thrilling win over Florida. That suggested that the season could go in one of two ways. The Tigers could have played inspired football now that there's a sense of finality -- let's be honest, the players knew this was coming when they topped the Gators -- or the season of tumult could spiral out of control.
A loss like this given the situation that the program finds itself in screams "disaster". That's OK, though. The talented players on LSU's roster still have plenty for which to play -- specifically either for NFL scouts or for the new coaching staff to see on tape once a new leader is named. That likely means that, in certain situations, the mindset and goals of individual players might be more important than the overall outcome of the team.
It's on Orgeron to prevent that from happening as much as possible. But that's not an easy task. Corral can do it all. He had 30 carries against Tennessee last week and was averaging yards per game through the air coming into the game.
He also takes great care of the football and is as tough as nails despite not being the biggest dude in the world. UK was able to capitalize on their forced turnover with a four-yard pass from quarterback Will Levis to running back Chris Rodriguez on fourth and goal. The Wildcats traveled 44 yards in nine plays for the score. Genius move. Levis to wide-open Chris Rodriguez for TD.
The Wildcats are off to a hot start, causing a turnover on LSU's first drive of the game. Before the start of every game, an artist s always sings the National Anthem in front of a standing and proud crowd. On Saturday, that artist was every fan of Big Blue Nation. Kentucky hired a director to lead the sold out crowd into belting out the anthem themselves. The entire stadium sang in unison and gave the director a standing ovation for his leadership.
Interesting choice for National Anthem singer as Kentucky has a director lead the entire crowd into singing the song instead of a performer. The crowd sounded beautiful and was very into it. A solid 9 out of 10 performance in my book. UK coach Mark Stoops revealed on his Monday radio show that Ali was battling a leg injury he sustained in the Wildcats' win over Florida but declined to comment on Ali's status when asked by the Courier Journal Wednesday despite reports that Ali would miss multiple games due to the injury.
A UK spokesman confirmed Ali, who was wearing street clothes as his teammates warmed up before the LSU game, would not play. All analysts picked Kentucky except for Howard. But celebrity guest picker and billionaire Mark Cuban had something interesting to say about UK. We break down key recruits for the top 25 classes. Sam Howell wants the Heisman. Cincinnati wants a spot in the playoff. Are they on track for the goal? All that and more in a crowded Week 10 for college football.
LSU quarterback Myles Brennan, who opened the season as the team's starter before being hit with several injuries, is set to enter the transfer portal. In honor of Halloween, we tell some tales from the dark side of confounded teams and players throughout the years.
