Live scores, highlights and updates from the Ole Miss vs. Liberty football game

The Ole Miss Rebels will be playing at home against the Liberty Flames at noon ET on Saturday. With a combined 1,068 yards of offense in their previous games, we can expect a fast-paced contest.

The Rebels came up short against the Auburn Tigers last week, falling 31-20. The losing side was boosted by QB Matt Corral, who accumulated 289 passing yards in addition to rushing for one TD and 45 yards.

Meanwhile, when you finish with 320 more yards than your opponent like Liberty did last week, a favorable outcome is almost sure to follow. They put a hurting on the Massachusetts Minutemen at home to the tune of 62-17. The matchup was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 41-3. Liberty's QB Malik Willis did his thing and passed for four TDs and 307 yards on 27 attempts in addition to picking up 37 yards on the ground. Willis' 60-yard touchdown toss to WR DJ Stubbs in the first quarter made for one of the most memorable moments of the day.

The Rebels are the favorite in this one, with an expected 9.5-point margin of victory. There could be an interesting gambling play in this one, as they have done quite well against the spread at home this season while Liberty have struggled against the spread on the road.

Ole Miss is now 6-2 while Liberty sits at 7-2. A couple defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Ole Miss is 224th worst in the nation in rushing touchdowns allowed, with 14 on the season. The Flames have had an even harder time: they are stumbling into the game with the 153rd most rushing touchdowns allowed in the nation, having given up eight on the season. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
