Ole Miss vs Memphis
\nSaturday, August 31 st , 12:00 PM
\nLiberty Bowl Stadium
\nOle Miss was a perfect 4-0 from conference games last year delivered a woeful record in SEC play. The Rebels will be looking to improve in their current background, having won fewer or six matches within the previous few years, and expecting to bolster last season’s defense that surrendered an average of 36.2 points per game.
\nTheir offense was the lone bright spot, averaging 33.9 points and more than 510 total yards per game but that should be taken in context, as they racked up a whopping 76 and 70 points against lightly considered Southern Illinois and UL Monroe, respectively.
\nMemphis was a winning football program under the watch of head coach Mike Norvell , notching at least eight wins over the past five seasons. The Tigers had a high-octane offense in 2018, averaging 42.9 points per game that ranked them in most of D-1 soccer.
\nFortunately for Tigers’ fans, Memphis will observe the return of quarterback Brady White, who passed with eight picks over the year 3296 yards and 26 touchdowns. Furthermore, White will notice three of four of his best intentions back in uniform, such as No. 1 receiver Damonte Coxie.
\nAt the backfield, last season’s starting tailback, Darrell Henderson, has been plucked by the Rams in the third round of April’s NFL draft, but his backup Patrick Taylor Jr. will assume the starting role after breaking the plane of the end zone on 18 occasions, two of which were getting touchdowns, in 2018.
\nAlthough the Tigers’ defense was not as impressive as its crime, they will be returning eight starters and aspire to improve upon their own 31.5 PPG ordinary.
\nFinal Score: Memphis 41 — Ole Miss 27
