Ole Miss football’s Ulysses Bentley glad he got an opportunity vs. LSU
SUMMARY: Ole Miss football running back Ulysses Bentley IV was expected to take on a larger role following Quinshon Judkins’ transfer to Ohio State, but he only had 16 carries in four games before facing LSU. Head coach Lane Kiffin clarified that the limited opportunities were not a reflection of Bentley’s abilities, as other players were performing well. Despite not receiving a clear explanation for his reduced playing time, Bentley was prepared when called upon against No. 13 LSU, rushing for 107 yards and one touchdown, demonstrating his readiness to contribute.
