In a dominating defensive performance, the Ole Miss football team secured a 27-3 victory against South Carolina on Saturday. From the opening whistle, the Rebels’ defense set the tone for the game, stifling South Carolina’s offense and giving them no room to breathe.
Led by standout performances from linebacker Sam Williams and defensive back Deantre Prince, Ole Miss forced three turnovers and held South Carolina to just 196 total yards of offense. Williams was a force to be reckoned with, recording two sacks and a forced fumble, while Prince snagged a key interception in the end zone to halt a Gamecocks scoring drive.
On the offensive side of the ball, quarterback Matt Corral continued his impressive season, throwing for 247 yards and two touchdowns. Running back Jerrion Ealy also had a standout performance, rushing for 102 yards and a touchdown, further solidifying himself as a key playmaker for the Rebels.
The victory improves Ole Miss’ record to 5-1 on the season, with their only loss coming against Alabama in Week 1. Head coach Lane Kiffin praised his team’s effort and execution in the win, highlighting the importance of the defense’s performance in shutting down South Carolina’s offense.
With this win, Ole Miss solidifies their standing as a contender in the SEC and will look to carry this momentum into their upcoming matchups. The Rebels will face off against Tennessee next week in another conference showdown, where they will look to continue their winning ways and further establish themselves as a force to be reckoned with in college football.
