Matt Corral Show: Ole Miss QB dazzles in 1st half at Tennessee
By SDS Staff
Published:
Matt Corral was the No. 4 pro-style quarterback of the 2018 recruiting class, but Saturday night he is showing that he is very much a “dual-threat” QB.
Corral has put on a show Saturday night on Rocky Top. Corral started off 7-of-16 passing but finished the half 12-of-23 for 164 yards and a touchdown.
While Corral had those early incompletion issues, he was impressive as a runner throughout the first 2 quarters. Corral is just shy of triple digits at the half, rushing 16 times for 97 yards.
On Twitter, fans are raving about Corral’s throws and runs while wondering where he might land in the NFL.
I want Matt Corral in an Eagles uniform next year more than you could ever know.

If i were Tennessee, I would simply stop Matt Corral from running for 20 yards every third and long.

Matt Corral has made some gorgeous throws tonight. If the Falcons want to draft him to be Matt Ryan's successor I will not object.
