Kiffin said challenge of having so many new faces in 2022 was something he ‘could’ve handled better’
SUMMARY: Under Lane Kiffin’s leadership, Ole Miss football has had a successful record of 18-8 in the past two years. However, the end of last season was tough for them as they lost five out of their last six games after starting 7-0. Kiffin attributed their downfall to the challenge of having many new players who lacked experience playing together. He compared it to dream teams in the NBA, stating that when things don’t go well for them, it becomes challenging for them to perform well. The team has been working hard to prevent a repeat of last season’s performance. The Rebels’ season starts on September 2nd when they host Mercer.
