Ole Miss vs Charlotte: Defense or Die | Ole Miss Rebels Football News

Ole Miss is back at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium aiming for their second win of the season against the Charlotte 49ers, who are desperate to bounce back after a wild overtime loss. The Rebels edged out Louisville 41-38 in a historic win — the first team to beat a ranked foe this year — but their defense was shaky, especially late. With key injuries including star running back Kewan Lacy’s bone bruise and offensive line woes, Ole Miss hopes to be healthier and more consistent. Charlotte’s defense showed flashes with two sacks and pressure on the QB, but their center struggled with snaps while wideout Jaylen Hampton exploded for 117 yards and two TDs. Ole Miss’ secondary must tighten up after costly mistakes against Louisville — they’ll need to contain Hampton if they want to keep their undefeated start alive.
