10/25/25 - QB Trinidad Chambliss, rSr/2026, Mississippi, (DS#8 QB)

Trinidad Chambliss threw for 315 yards and a touchdown and Kewan Lacy ran for two scores to help No. 8 Mississippi defeat No. 13 Oklahoma 34-26 on Saturday. Ole Miss finished much differently than last week, when the Rebels led by nine in the third quarter before falling apart late in a 43-35 loss. "Same Georgia feeling crowd started coming alive," coach Lane Kiffin said. "And then obviously much different response by us. And I didn't feel like they ever, you know, kind of freaked out. And they had each other's back." Chambliss also rushed for 53 yards and often scrambled to create extra time to make throws. "He's a winner," Oklahoma coach Brent Venables said. "It's what he's done against everybody. But we needed to play better (to) have a chance to win. We needed to do a better job against him. So I didn't have them ready to do that." Lacy had a hard-earned 78 yards on 27 carries and Winston Watkins had four catches for 111 yards for the Rebels (7-1, 4-1 Southeastern Conference).

Against Oklahoma, Ole Miss put up 431 yards on a team that led the nation in total defense and ranked second in scoring defense heading into the weekend. John Mateer was 17 of 31 for 223 yards and a touchdown and an interception for Oklahoma (6-2, 2-2). Isaiah Sategna had six catches for a career-high 131 yards, but he had a costly fumble in the fourth quarter that stunted the Sooners' momentum. Xavier Robinson ran for 109 yards and two scores. "A lot to learn from in a really painful way," Venables said. Chambliss looked like a magician in the first half while gouging Oklahoma's typically stout defense with 160 yards passing and 40 rushing. Lacy ran for a touchdown in the first quarter and another in the second to help the Rebels take a 22-10 lead at halftime. Ole Miss offered Oklahoma a lifeline early in the third quarter by going for it on fourth-and-1 from its 25. A mishandled snap gave the Sooners the ball at the Ole Miss 15, and the Sooners kicked a field goal to trim the deficit to 22-13. The Sooners then got their dormant ground game going. Robinson's touchdown runs of 65 and 9 yards in the third quarter put Oklahoma up 26-25 heading into the fourth. Chambliss' 8-yard touchdown pass to Trace Bruckler early in the fourth put Ole Miss up 31-26. - Ole Miss/AP College Football
