Trinidad Chambliss ran for two touchdowns and passed for another, and No. 6 Mississippi looked unfazed by the defection of coach Lane Kiffin, beating No. 17 Tulane 41-10 on Saturday in the first round of the College Football Playoff. Scoring runs of 20 yards by Kewan Lacy and 4 yards by Chambliss gave Ole Miss (12-1) a 14-0 lead before eight minutes had elapsed in the coaching debut of Pete Golding, who was promoted from defensive coordinator after Kiffin left for LSU on Nov. 30. Next up for Golding and Ole Miss: a CFP quarterfinal against No. 2 Georgia in the Sugar Bowl on Jan. 1 Tulane (11-3) and quarterback Jake Retzlaff moved the ball effectively at times, but the Rebels - who beat the Green Wave 45-10 on Sept. 20 - remained comfortably ahead throughout. Cornerback Jaylon Braxton had an early interception, and the Rebels’ defense had multiple fumble recoveries and fourth-down stops. While Kiffin had asked to keep coaching Ole Miss through the playoff even while working for its Southeastern Conference rival, athletic director Keith Carter would not allow it. So the Rebels entered arguably the most significant game ever played at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium with a new coach - not to mention an unprecedented level of looming staff and roster uncertainty for a team contending for a national title.

Chambliss, who briefly left the game late in the first half after a big hit during an 11-yard scramble, finished with 282 yards passing. Lacy rushed for 87 yards before heading to the locker room in the fourth quarter with an apparent left shoulder injury. De’Zhaun Stribling caught five passes for 79 yards, including a 13-yard TD. LSU transfer Logan Diggs added a 3-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. Retzlaff finished with 306 yards passing and a TD for Tulane, whose loss dropped non-power conference teams to 0-3 in CFP games (with James Madison playing at Oregon later Saturday night). Jamauri McClure gained 84 yards on 15 carries. - Mississippi/AP College Football

Trinidad Chambliss threw for 359 yards and four touchdowns, and No. 6 Mississippi rolled through Mississippi State 38-19 Saturday in the Battle for the Golden Egg. Chambliss led a Rebel charge that racked up 546 yards of offense. The senior transfer from Division II Ferris State was 23 of 34 for 359 yards and four touchdowns. De'Zhaun Stribling had two of those touchdowns and had four catches for 66 yards. Deuce Alexander had two catches for 94 yards, including an 88-yard score in the fourth quarter that would put the game away for good. The Rebels (11-1, 7-1 Southeastern Conference, No. 7 CFP) also had a big day on the ground as the unit rushed for 187 yards on 39 carries with Kewan Lacy putting in 143 of those yards on 27 carries.

The Bulldogs had more than 400 yards of offense themselves. Jeff Lebby made the surprise change at quarterback and played talented freshman Kamario Taylor all game. The Macon native finished his first start 15 of 31 for 178 yards and had 20 carries for 173 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. Mississippi State (5-7, 1-7 SEC) finished with 440 total yards on 74 plays with 262 of those on the ground. Fluff Bothwell rushed 17 times for 80 yards and Brenen Thompson had six catches for 80 yards. The Bulldogs defense was the real culprit in the game as Coleman Hutzler's unit gave up more than 500 yards for the sixth time in two seasons. - Mississippi/AP College Football

Joshua Dye scored three touchdowns, including a game-tying score to force overtime in a comeback, for Southern Utah in its 36-34 double-overtime win over North Alabama on Saturday. Dye scored his second touchdown with 9:42 remaining to cut the Thunderbirds' (7-5, 6-2 United Athletic Conference) deficit to 28-21. The Lions (2-10, 1-7) chewed more than seven minutes on a 14-play, 50-yard drive, forcing three Thunderbirds' timeouts. Ian Vachon missed a field goal from 35 yards, and the Thunderbirds mounted a seven-play, 80-yard drive capped by a 3-yard touchdown run from Dye to send the game to overtime. Dye was stopped short on fourth-and-2 to open the extra period, but the Lions turned the ball over on a Roderick Taylor Jr. fumble.

Taylor scored on a 1-yard run in the second overtime, but the two-point conversion failed. The Thunderbirds answered with a 15-yard touchdown from Bronson Barren to Gabe Nunez, and a 2-yard rush from Shane Carr for the game-winning conversion. The Thunderbirds, who have won six straight games, never led until the game-winning score. Dye, who had already broken Southern Utah's single-season records for rushing touchdowns (23) and carries (271), added the net rushing yards record to his tally, finishing with 1,831 yards after a 108-yard day. John Austin Wood was 15-of-22 passing for 236 yards and a touchdown for North Alabama. Lando Brown entered the game No. 2 in FCS football in sacks, and added two, finishing with 14.0 on the year. It was the final game played at Braly Stadium for North Alabama, where its played since 1949. North Alabama moves to Bank Independent Stadium next season. - AP College Football
