I thought they put on a good performance on offense, being versatile with their backs, putting them in space, and also creating great plays to put points on the board.
They put up a fight against the best team in the nation. Their performance was shocking. In a good way.
I was extremely impressed. The offense was amazing. Coach (Lane) Kiffin is one of the best if not the best playcaller in college football. Once again, they got the tight end involved, which is huge for me. (Kenny) Yeboah had an amazing night.
This offense is top-three in the SEC. If you score that many points against Alabama, that says a lot.
Great game. It was a hard loss. Coach (Lane) Kiffin is building something special. I loved his comment about we play to win, not cover the spread.
The game last night was probably one of the best games I’ve seen in a minute! The playcalling was very good. It put the Alabama defense on notice. Coach Lane (Kiffin) did a great job!
I've been impressed by the Ole Miss offense so far, they've really caught my attention over the past few weeks.
I watched a little bit of it, but after watching some highlights, they did great. It was a very close game. I know Ole Miss is going to come back stronger from this as a team.
I thought it was a real good game. I love their spread offense and the way (Matt) Corral throws the ball.
I enjoyed the game. Wish we had a little more defense, but I thought we played well.
I was able to watch a little bit. It was good to see the offense dominating the Alabama defense. I think there are little things that were exploited on defense.
It was really exciting to see the offense perform like it did and I'm looking forward to see our defense improve because once that is fixed we should be pretty special.
(Lane) Kiffin is as real as it gets!
