The Rebels have dealt with their fair share of injuries this season, but the offensive line had managed to mostly avoid the injury bug until last game. Two starters, left tackle Rod Taylor and guard Jordan Sims, both went down with ankle injuries against LSU and missed the remainder of the game.
“I think you always have injuries that you have to deal with in a season. It just kind of came up on us in one game, but I’m real excited about the way the guys practiced,” Matt Luke, co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach, said. “I think sometimes that’s the best way to overcome tough times is to get back on the field and go back to work is the best therapy that you can have, and I thought we had a really good energetic practice.
