re: Is there a legitimate reason that Ole Miss uses turf on their field than grass?

When players are used to it and know how to play on it, its usually not a problem, so you wouldnt see a lot of injuries from the home team. Its generally the away team that has issues since they dont play on it all the time. I am aware that teams have indoor practice facilities that are turf but they generally only use them in bad weather conditions or when they are trying to recreate closed in spaces with lots of noise.

every SEC team has turf somewhere in there practice facility. Players are used to it. The old astroturf was horrible for knee injuries and such. The new stuff is better and getting better, but it will probably never equal grass.
