Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin praised his team’s gritty 26-14 win over the Oklahoma Sooners, stating that a win is a win in the tough SEC. The Rebels trailed at halftime but rallied in the second half, led by QB Jaxson Dart and a strong defensive performance. Kiffin commended his team for settling down and dominating after adjusting to Oklahoma’s new play caller. He emphasized the importance of enjoying a win in the SEC while acknowledging the need for improvement.
Heading into a game against the Arkansas Razorbacks, Kiffin wants his team to maintain their joy while focusing on areas for growth. Ole Miss, currently 6-2 overall and 2-2 in the SEC, is looking to stay in the College Football Playoff conversation. Winning in Fayetteville, where they have historically struggled, is crucial for the Rebels as they prepare to face the Georgia Bulldogs next week.
The upcoming game against Arkansas will be televised on ESPN at 11 a.m. CT on Saturday. Ole Miss will aim to build on their recent success and continue their push for a strong finish to the season. Kiffin and his team are determined to make the most of their recent win and carry that momentum forward as they navigate the challenging SEC schedule.
