Final Betting Lines for Ole Miss Football vs. Oklahoma Sooners in Week 9 Battle

Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels will look to keep the program's College Football Playoff hopes alive on Saturday in Norman with a matchup against the Oklahoma Sooners up next on the docket.

After falling to the Georgia Bulldogs in Week 8, Kiffin and Co. will look to remain in the hunt for significant postseason opportunities and earn a bounce back win on Saturday.

But a challenge awaits in Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium in Week 9 with Brent Venables and Co. looking to make a statement.

"They’ve got really good players that are coached really well. That’s a really good combination in a very aggressive defensive mindset," Kiffin said. "[Venables] plays kind of like some offenses sometimes. Like, when he has them down, he doesn’t get conservative. He’s going to really try to keep going. 

"That’s why you see some of these games where it’s just the offensive numbers are so far down because he just never lets up. That’s not necessarily always how defensive coaches call it [but] maybe a little more some offensive coaches do that."
