While most of the starters exited the game after the first half, Ole Miss still amounted 25 second half points to finish of Furman with a final of 76-0, setting the record for most points scored under head coach Lane Kiffin. Even with such a strong performance on Saturday, Dart was not surprised by the outcome. He puts in the work, and he expects his team to succeed.
"Quite honestly, it's kind of what we expected going into it," Dart said postgame. "That's just kind of the standard that we want to play at and excel at. Big thing for us is trying to control what we can control, and regardless of the score and situation, go into each and every play with the same mindset."
Ole Miss has never had a Heisman Trophy winner, but after this performance, with the new and old expectations, everyone should be on watch for Jaxson Dart as the season progresses. He looks to continue his campaign next week as the Rebels try to advance to 2-0 when they take on Middle Tennessee at home.
