After getting their second win of the season over Southeastern Louisiana last weekend, the 2-1 Rebs return to the Vaught to take on Pac-12 foe California. Two years ago, the Golden Bears handled Ole Miss’ offense in Berkley and won a hard-fought game 27-16 on the back of their defense.
This year, expect more of the same from Justin Wilcox’s bunch. The Bears bring in a nasty defense led by “The Takers” in the secondary and linebacker Evan Weaver. The aforementioned secondary is 14th in the country in pass success rate and will test Matt Corral early and often with mixed coverage looks and aggressive man-to-man.
