“Absolutely not, I don’t have any regrets,” Corral said. “I put my heart and soul into this team.”

Given his passion for the Ole Miss program, Corral said he didn’t have any qualms about playing in the bowl game. He wanted to play one last game with his teammates before heading to the NFL, and didn’t want to be “selfish” and opt out.

“That is really the reason why I couldn’t just (say), ‘No, I’m not going to play in this game.’ You know, it’s selfish,” Corral said. “I just felt like it was a selfish thing to do because I wasn’t in this position by myself. I couldn’t have done it without them.”
