Does the Texas Bowl performance raise questions for Head Coach Lane Kiffin? NealMcCready recaps the 42-25 Ole Miss loss to Texas Tech:
That’s a Cardinal rule of sorts, certainly in today’s college football.Ole Miss lost to Texas Tech, 42-25, Wednesday night in the TaxAct Texas Bowl at NRG Stadium in Houston. It was a bizarre night for the Rebels, with Lane Kiffin going for it on multiple fourth downs, faking a punt deep in Ole Miss territory and more. The Rebels were dominated on both sides of the football, on the sideline, in the stands, everywhere.
The Rebels were blown out in the second half in Baton Rouge, beat Texas A&M and likely should’ve beaten Alabama. They were mauled in the first half in Fayetteville and were sluggish in a two-point Egg Bowl loss. What was obvious, however, was Ole Miss wasn’t sharp at Arkansas or in Oxford against Mississippi State. A month-plus later, the Rebels were downright weird in Houston. Frankly, Texas Tech looked like a team excited to be playing in the postseason versus a team going through the motions.
Ole Miss signed just 12 high school players on National Signing Day, the overwhelming majority of which were highly-ranked, heavily-pursued prospects. Based on that number, however, it appears Ole Miss has every intention of diving heavily into the portal over the next few weeks — and likely again in the late spring.
