Key Player Matchups
QB Michael Campbell (Millsaps) vs. Hendrix Secondary
Campbell’s ability to extend plays and throw deep will test the Warriors’ defensive backs.
RB Jordan Reyes (Millsaps) vs. Hendrix Front Seven
If active, Reyes’ downhill running could help Millsaps control tempo.
QB Tyler Lewis (Hendrix) vs. Millsaps Pass Rush
Lewis has been efficient but must avoid turnovers against an opportunistic Majors defense.
RB Chris Thomas (Hendrix) vs. Millsaps Linebackers
Thomas’ ability to grind out yards between the tackles will be key to sustaining drives.
