LOOK: Ole Miss Starts Fast, Jaxson Dart and Tre Harris Connect For Passing Score
NEW ORLEANS -- It didn't take long for the No. 20 Ole Miss Rebels to strike first in their matchup against the No. 24 Tulane Green Wave on Saturday afternoon.
Ole Miss ran three plays on its first offensive possession, all of which were passes from Jaxson Dart. It was the third play, however, where Dart found wide receiver Tre Harris for their fifth passing touchdown connection on the season, and that was also Harris' second reception of the drive.
You can see the play below.
Although Tulane is without starting quarterback Michael Pratt on Saturday, the Green Wave responded with a nine-play scoring drive of their own on the ensuing possession. Backup quarterback Kai Horton took control of the offense on the team's first drive, and a wildcat formation rushing touchdown gave Tulane its first points of the day.
Pratt injured his left knee against South Alabama during the fourth quarter in the Green Wave's season opener. During the final scoring drive, Pratt sprinted out of the pocket on a third-and-10 play and got hit awkwardly by South Alabama safety Jaden Voisin.
He was originally listed as a game-time decision on Saturday, but he was eventually ruled out prior to the game.
