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:

This coaching staff quit on these boys tonight. Matt Luke needs to be fired NOW! You’re down 25 and running the ball? Why?

Fire everybody, retain Matt Luke as O line coach, and hire Mike Leach or Kiffin

Praying to god that tonight is Matt Luke's last game

I sure hope this Matt Luke experiment is over after tonight. Ta’amu runs up stats on crap teams riding the coattails of the NWO, Longo’s only idea is to throw it up and let the big receivers fight for it. McGriff is a joke the biggest joke on this dumpster fire.
