After facing the fast-paced Auburn offense in the season opener, Kentucky will face another challenge this week, as the Cats face Ole Miss and its high-powered attack in the home opener on Saturday.
Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin and his offenses have always been able to put up big numbers and that doesn't look to change as he takes over in Oxford. In Saturday's season opener, the Rebels hung 35 points on Florida in a 51-35 loss. Still, it was an impressive performance by the Ole Miss offense.
How impressive? The Rebels had 613 yards of total offense in the game. Ole Miss had 443 yards passing, including 395 and three touchdowns from quarterback Matt Corral. The Rebels had 170 yards rushing, 86 from Jerrion Early and 81 from Corral.
Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops knows that the Ole Miss offense, under Kiffin's direction, will be another challenge for the UK defense.
"Ole Miss, they play extremely fast on offense," Stoops said. "Their quarterback is playing at a very, very high level. He can throw the ball all over the place. They have a very good scheme that spreads you out and puts a lot of pressure on you."
