Well, hot damn. Ole Miss beat Auburn. It wasn't the prettiest of games, but they did, indeed, get dat W. I must confess that I proclaimed Auburn would win midway through the second quarter. I was wrong, Here's why:
Ole Miss started throwing the ball to Laquon Treadwell. At the half, Treadwell had one target. He finished with seven receptions for 114 yards and a gorgeous touchdown. Once Treadwell became heavily involved in the offense, things started clicking. The running game ended up averaging four yards per carry. Chad Kelly passed for over 380 yards.
This was also a big game for Damore'ea Stringfellow, who finished with eight receptions.
