LOOK: QB Walker Howard Executes Beautiful Passing Touchdown to Ulysses Bentley

The Rebels transfer signal caller pulled off a beautiful lob to his running back in Saturday's Grove Bowl.

OXFORD, Miss. -- The future is bright for the Ole Miss Rebels offense.

While the Rebels host their annual Grove Bowl spring game on Saturday, one of the key storylines fans are watching is the quarterback competition in Oxford.

While all three quarterbacks have at least one touchdown pass on the day to this point, one from LSU Tigers transfer Walker Howard drew notice in the first quarter. On a 4th and 3 deep in the red team's territory, Howard rolled to his right and found running back Ulysses Bentley IV all alone in the end zone for six.

Here is a video of the play on Saturday afternoon.

The red and navy squads have traded scores for much of the first half, and Walker Howard has also played quarterback for both teams. Incumbent starter Jaxson Dart drew the start for the red team, and Oklahoma State Cowboys transfer Spencer Sanders drew the nod for navy.
