Matt Corral prepares for first real test of the semester

Ole Miss starting quarterback Matt Corral has completed 63% of his passes for 578 yards and a 144.9 passing efficiency rating after three games. The redshirt freshman has appeared poised most of the time, but overwhelmed other times.

He will need his best performance of the season thus far to get past a salty California Golden Bear defense ranked No. 15 in the SP+ ratings after week three. That defense featuring a ballhawking, active secondary specializing in confusing opposing offenses has dragged the team to a 3-0 record with an impressive win over Washington and a No. 23 ranking.
