Ole Miss Secures Gritty 34-26 Victory Over Oklahoma Amid Kiffin-Stone Exchange

The Ole Miss Rebels secured a pivotal 34-26 victory over the Oklahoma Sooners, improving their record to 7-1 and enhancing their College Football Playoff prospects. Head coach Lane Kiffin's leadership has been instrumental in the Rebels' success, reflected in his 28-6 record over three seasons and growing confidence in winning a national championship at Ole Miss. Post-game, Kiffin engaged in a notable exchange with Oklahoma defensive lineman David Stone, who had taunted him during the game, showcasing Kiffin's fiery personality and competitive spirit. The Rebels overcame a third-quarter comeback by Oklahoma, finishing strong with a shutout fourth quarter and key offensive performances, including quarterback Trinidad Chambliss's 315 passing yards. Ole Miss's continued success under Kiffin reduces the likelihood of him leaving for the Florida Gators, despite ongoing rumors and Florida's interest. The Rebels remain contenders for the SEC Championship and College Football Playoff, with upcoming games against unranked SEC opponents enhancing their pathway forward.
