No. 6 Ole Miss (11-1, 7-1 SEC) captured a historic College Football Playoff victory on Saturday after taking down the Tulane Green Wave 41-10 at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.
The Ole Miss Rebels completely annihilated Tulane 41-10 in their first round College Football Playoff game on Saturday. There were significant questions about what this Ole Miss team would look like following the departure of the villainous Lane Kiffin, but the Rebels looked better than ever.
Tulane earned its first College Football Playoff berth by pulling off an upset in the American Championship Game to cap off a season in which it went 2-1 against Power 4 opponents.
Knox Kiffin, the son of LSU head coach Lane Kiffin, has received a scholarship offer from a Power 4 school. Kiffin posted on social media that he has received an offer from the Washington Huskies.
The second, and possibly final, iteration of the 12-team College Football Playoff kicks off Friday and continues Saturday with a triple header. The dust has settled since a controversial Selection Sunday, which saw Miami jump Notre Dame and Sun Belt champion James Madison get the nod over ACC winner Duke.
Ole Miss Rebels quarterbacks coach Joe Judge has signed an extension with the program and will be back in Oxford for the 2026 season. Judge, a premier assistant coach across the college landscape, has played an integral role in the growth of Trinidad Chambliss this season where he emerged into one of the top signal-callers in America.
Pete Golding and the Ole Miss Rebels are preparing for the program's College Football Playoff debut on Saturday afternoon at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium against Jon Sumrall's Tulane Green Wave.
The Ole Miss Rebels wasted no time in naming a new permanent head coach to replace Lane Kiffin. Ole Miss announced that defensive coordinator Pete Golding will be the team’s new head coach going forward.
