OXFORD, Miss. – No. 10 Ole Miss falls to No. 2 Georgia, 42-7, on Saturday night inside Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. 

Running back Shekai Mills-Knight found the end zone in the fourth quarter. The rushing score marks the first time in his career that he has recorded a rushing touchdown in back-to-back games. 

Wide receiver Horatio Fields led the Rebels in receptions with eight catches for 96 yards against the Bulldogs, setting new career highs in both receptions and receiving yards. 

Will Echoles continued to make his presence felt on the defensive line, recording his eighth career sack at Ole Miss. 
 
Hear what Pete Golding and Trinidad Chambliss had to say. 
"It was a very disappointing performance in all three phases." Golding said. "It started on the first play of the game and never stopped. I'm not taking anything away from Kirby and Georgia. That's a really good football team. We just didn't help ourselves, so we have to go back and look at everything. You always do when you get your butt whooped, but I didn't see that coming, I'm not going to lie to you. I felt we had a good week of practice and our preparation was good. We didn't do a good enough job coaching, and we didn't have them ready to play. That's not the product we want to put on tape, and that's not who we are. We're going to have to go back to work and fix a lot of things. Hats off to Kirby and Georgia." 
 
CHAMBLISS BATTLES ADVERSITY 
Quarterback Trinidad Chambliss finished the night completing 18 of his 34 pass attempts for 170 yards. With 170 passing yards, Trinidad Chambliss now ranks seventh all-time in Ole Miss history in career passing yards with 6,296, passing Kent Austin. 

"Man, just couldn't get things going." Chambliss said. "I couldn't get drops going. They brought a lot of pressure. They got home, you know, on four sacks. So, I just couldn't get going. I mean, they just want a lot from us, so it's tough to kind of get into the flow of that when you're, you know, extending plays or trying to at least." 
 
Chambliss recorded 18 completions on the night, bringing his career total to 501 and surpassing Romaro Miller for seventh all-time in Ole Miss history.

"We're just having a short memory about this." Chambliss said. "We still have to soak in what we did wrong. I know this feeling sounds repetitive whenever we lose. You have to look back, see what went wrong, and figure out how to get better in those areas. Then we go from there and try to have a positive mindset this week and for the rest of the season. You don't want the team to feel sorry for themselves or feel like the season's over, because honestly, I don't think our season is over. We just have to have a positive mindset going into the week."
