Ole Miss defeated Florida 34-24 on Saturday night in Oxford.
That result put an end to an emotionally-charged week for the Ole Miss faithful. With Florida’s head coaching position vacant, rumors about Lane Kiffin‘s potential interest in a move to Gainesville have been swirling for weeks.
At the end of the game, Ole Miss fans were vocal in their appreciation of Kiffin as the game drew to a close. Here’s a clip from the broadcast, which features loud ‘We want Lane’ chants from the crowd in Oxford:
This is a huge result for Ole Miss, and not just because it could have implications for Kiffin’s future. The Rebels are now 10-1 this season and appear to be a near-lock for their first-ever trip to the College Football Playoff. Their final game of the season is against Mississippi State.
Ole Miss has lost just once this season — against Georgia in Athens way back on Oct. 18. The Rebels have picked up a few other impressive wins along the way, including a victory over a top-10 Oklahoma team in October.
As for Kiffin’s future, much is still undecided. However, over on Kalshi, Kiffin’s chances to be the next Florida head coach have been on a downward trend since early Saturday morning. Here’s a look at the current Kalshi market:
