Ole Miss loses a pair of defenders for the season

Ole Miss HC Nutt, announced that defensive end Wayne Dorsey and cornerback Marcus Temple are lost for the year due to injuries. Both players are starters. Dorsey (pictured) sustained a broken right arm and Temple a fractured right ankle in the loss.

“Those were some key players that we just lost, so somebody has to step up and fill their positions,” Ole Miss linebacker Mike Marry said after the game. “They were big playmakers and also big leaders on and off the field.”

Indeed, losing Dorsey and Temple qualifies as major loses. Dorsey had three sacks, five tackles for loss and an interception; Temple had a pair of interceptions of his own.
