Ole Miss fans frustrated after Egg Bowl blowout loss, call for Matt Luke to get fired

Ole Miss looked lifeless for most of Thursday night’s Egg Bowl beat-down.
The Bulldogs thumped the Rebels 35-3, and Ole Miss fans are frustrated. The defense gave up 420 total yards and 35 points to MSU, while the offense struggled to string together drives.
Matt Luke was hired as the permanent Ole Miss head coach following last season as the interim head coach. It’s likely Ole Miss makes a change with at least one of its coordinators, but Matt Luke’s job is most likely safe.

The Rebels finish the season 1-7 in the SEC and 5-7 overall.
Following the blowout loss, Rebels fans took to social media to voice their displeasure with Luke:
