Ole Miss looks to continue where they left off against South Carolina, facing another tough SEC road game against LSU. At the start of the week, head coach Lane Kiffin confirmed that the team could be without wide receiver Tre Harris, saying, "They are preparing to play without him."

Tre Harris has been the player talked about the most, leading the nation in receiving yards, and such a vital player for the Rebels, he is going to be. However, Kiffin has several other players listed as questionable who are in danger of missing the game.

Tre Harris and three other Ole Miss players questionable for LSU game

The Rebels released their Wednesday injury report yesterday evening, as required by SEC regulations. Alongside Tre Harris, Ole Miss had safety Louis Moore, defensive end Princely Umanmielen, and defensive tackle JJ Pegues listed as questionable for Saturday's game in Baton Rouge.

Umanmielen and Moore missed the win over South Carolina last weekend, but this week, Pegues and Harris are new to the questionable list. There has been no talk about any concerns around Pegues, so it could be likely that he will be moved to probable over the next few days.

OM Spirit reported that Umanmielen is trending not to play against LSU, but this hasn't come from the mouth of Lane Kiffin or the player. We will see injury reports over the next two days. Could Kiffin be playing some mind games?

We are still two days away from the game, and we saw last week's injury reports can change up to the last minute when running back Henry Parrish Jr. was a game-time decision but did play against the Gamecocks. RB2 will be a different player for the Rebs, with Matt Jones ruled out.
