Two Rebels Make SEC All-Freshman Team

by Jake Adams

Ole Miss freshmen Denzel Nkemdiche and Issac Gross were both named to the SEC's All-Freshman team as announced by the conference office. Here's the official press release. Nkemdiche led the Rebels in tackles (78) and Gross led the team in tackles for loss (9). Notably, both players were considered undersized for their positions, Nkemdiche at linebacker and Gross at tackle, but both seemed to always be the ones finding their way to the ball. Congratulations to two Rebels with very bright futures!
