No. 8 Ole Miss defeated No. 7 LSU 32-24 in a highly anticipated SEC matchup in Oxford. The game marked the return of former Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin, who is currently leading LSU. Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss delivered a standout performance, passing for 363 yards and two touchdowns while adding a decisive 14-yard rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter to secure the win.

LSU mounted a comeback in the second half to tie the game at 24-24, but Ole Miss regained control following a two-point conversion. The victory moves Ole Miss into the top 4 of the national rankings, while LSU drops to No. 10. Ole Miss head coach Pete Golding was named the Bear Bryant Awards National Coach of the Week for the performance.

Beyond the field, the game saw record-breaking activity in Oxford. Vaught-Hemingway Stadium hosted a record crowd of 70,033 fans, and Ole Miss reported nearly $1 million in alcohol sales, the highest in program history. City officials noted the weekend was a public safety success despite an influx of over 300,000 visitors to the area.
