Ole Miss down 2 starters today with Alabama game looming: reports
Two vital starters on offense are unlikely to play on Saturday as Ole Miss could be without both wide receiver Tre Harris and star sophomore tailback Quinshon Judkins in the game against Georgia Tech, according to multiple reports.
Ole Miss (2-0) plays at Alabama next week.
Harris suffered an apparent knee injury in the Rebels' win against Tulane last week and Judkins is nursing an upper body injury.
Harris left last week's game in the second quarter with the injury and was unable to return, instead wearing a knee brace while on the sideline.
Head coach Lane Kiffin doesn't divulge a lot of injury details, but did say that the injury does not pose any long-term threat for the player or the team.
Ole Miss' top weapon through the air so far, Harris caught eight passes for 188 yards and five touchdowns through two games.
Judkins is one of the nation's premier running backs, and arguably the top back in the SEC, but is off to a slow start this season, posting just 108 yards and three touchdowns a year after amassing more than 1,600 yards and rushing for 16 touchdowns.
Kiffin has expressed concern about his team's ability to run the ball.
"Yeah, I'm highly concerned," Kiffin told reporters this week. "That's very unusual for us. I don't remember the inability to run the ball at all."
