Ole Miss Secondary Struggles | Ole Miss Rebels Football News

Ole Miss is off to a solid 2-0 start, but the defense—especially the secondary—is struggling with costly mistakes that keep popping up even in wins. Defensive coordinator Pete Golding is blunt: they’re rotating nine DBs to find the right five who can execute consistently, stressing it’s a team-wide issue of communication and role clarity—not just one person’s fault. Injuries have sidelined key starters, but Golding isn’t making excuses—he built depth for exactly these moments. Good news? Starting safety Sharif Denson is expected back this week after an injection, and cornerback Antonio Kite is hopeful too, though his status remains uncertain. Despite the secondary woes, the team keeps winning—but now they’re laser-focused on fixing mental errors to stop those explosive plays before they swing games.
