A week after Ole Miss’ worst offensive performance of the season, the Rebels rebounded with 52 points and 665 total yards in a 52-3 win over New Mexico State.
After lackluster performances over the past two weeks, junior quarterback Chad Kelly had a better performance with 384 passing yards and three touchdowns to just one interception. Kelly also added 32 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown.
Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze described Kelly’s day as solid but saw room for improvement.
“(We had) too many decisions that could have resulted in negative plays,” Freeze said of Kelly’s performance.
