09/20/25 - QB Trinidad Chambliss, Sr/2026, Mississippi, (DS#18 QB)

Trinidad Chambliss threw for two touchdowns, Kewan Lacy added a pair of 1-yard touchdown runs and No. 13 Mississippi handed Tulane its first loss with a 45-10 victory Saturday. Ole Miss (4-0) dominated the Green Wave, building a 23-3 halftime lead, after earning consecutive close wins over SEC foes Kentucky and Arkansas. "I'm really proud because we were coming off two hard games and we could have been looking ahead next week to LSU," Mississippi coach Lane Kiffin said. "Our players and coaches came out and took care of business. It was a dominating day against a really well-coached team that plays hard." Chambliss, confirmed as the starting quarterback on Thursday, provided a second consecutive strong performance with 17-of-27 passing for 307 yards while adding 112 yards on 14 rushes. "It's cool to see him do that because we expect him to play well," Kiffin said. "For a second straight week, he did not have a turnover and 4-0, that sounds really good." Deuce Alexander had four receptions for 94 yards, including a 33-yard TD reception.

Dae'Quan Wright caught a 5-yard scoring pass as Chambliss connected with seven receivers. "I'm just glad Trinidad trusted me enough to throw me the ball," Alexander said. "We've got a lot of guys with skills that can play and we respect each other. As long as we get the ‘W,' that's all that matters." Former starter Austin Simmons, recovering from a severe ankle injury, dressed but did not play after finishing a scoring series in a brief appearance in last week's win over Arkansas. Lacy finished with 68 yards on 18 rushes, while Logan Diggs added a 2-yard touchdown run midway through the fourth period. Lucas Carneiro added field goals of 22, 54 and 34 yards. The Rebels finished with 548 yards of total offense and scored on all six trips to the red zone. Tulane (3-1) managed only 282 yards of total offense and turned the ball over on downs three times in the second half. Jake Retzlaff, after an 0-for-9 start, finished 5 of 17 for 56 yards. - Mississippi/AP College Football
