  Mississippi sacked LaNorris Sellers six times and the No. 7 Rebels held off upset-minded South Carolina 30-14 on Saturday night. Ole Miss, third in the SEC and ninth nationally in total offense, looked rather pedestrian as Trinidad Chambliss completed just 12 of 21 passes with a touchdown and an interception. He threw an 8-yard TD pass to Dae'Quan Wright and scored on a 15-yard run, but the Rebels (8-1, 5-1 SEC) were forced to settle for short field goals on other possessions when they could've taken control. Suntarine Perkins and Da'Shawn Womack sacked Sellers twice in three plays after the Gamecocks (3-6, 1-6), trailing by nine, reached the Ole Miss 33 with a little more than seven minutes left.

On the first play after the turnover on downs, Kewan Lacy scored on a 54-yard run to put the game out of reach for Ole Miss. "To go to 8-1, the only loss at Georgia, and we were ahead by two scores and should have finished," Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin said. "I didn't feel great about our passing performance, but I've got to remind myself that we're in the SEC and 16-point wins are good. They've got some really elite (SEC) players, especially on defense." The Rebels also intercepted Sellers twice in the last 5:27. Perkins had 1½ sacks and an interception with 5:21 remaining. While Chambliss was erratic, the long touchdown run was an exclamation point for Lacy, who finished with 167 yards including 101 yards in the first half. - Mississippi/AP College Football

  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

  When Georgia's defense found a way to deliver stops on back-to-back possession in the fourth quarter, the Rebels defense couldn't make a similar stand with the game on the line.

  MIDSEASON AP SEC TOP FIRST-YEAR TRANSFER: Quarterback Trinidad Chambliss, a transfer from Division II Ferris State, has been a difference-maker for No. 5 Mississippi. Chambliss has the attention of Smart as the Rebels prepare to play at Georgia on Saturday. Smart says Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin's staff "should get the greatest award there is for finding this guy. I don't know who scouted, who found him, but he is a really good football player that they went out and got and did a tremendous job." Chambliss has passed for 1,286 yards and rushed for 281. He has passed for seven touchdowns with only one interception. - AP College Football

  No. 4 Ole Miss pulled out a 24-21 victory over Washington State in a game that shouldn't have been close to begin with. The Rebels got off to a slow start, with their first three drives resulting in a turnover on downs, a missed field goal and a fumble. Ole Miss went on a 10-0 run in the second quarter before a back-and-forth contest in the second half. The Rebels secured the win, but it wasn't top-five caliber play. - AP College Football

  Trinidad Chambliss threw for two touchdowns and ran for another score to lead No. 4 Mississippi over Washington State 24-21 on Saturday. Ole Miss (6-0) trailed 14-10 late in the third period before Chambliss scored on a 17-yard touchdown scramble. Chambliss threw a 35-yard touchdown pass to Cayden Lee to build a 24-14 lead with 6:51 remaining. Washington State (3-3) led for a majority of the first three quarters. The Cougars scored late on a 19-yard touchdown pass from Zevi Eckhaus to Tony Freeman, bringing them a field goal away from tying the game. They had a final possession with just over a minute remaining, but were unable to score.

Chambliss went 20-of-29 passing for 253 yards, including a 2-yard touchdown pass to Dae'Quan Wright to take a 10-7 halftime lead. Kewan Lacy had 24 rushes for 142 yards.

  Trinidad Chambliss passed for 314 yards and a touchdown - a third straight 300-yard passing performance for the Division II transfer- and No. 13 Mississippi defeated No. 4 LSU 24-19 on Saturday. Kewan Lacy ran for a 15-yard touchdown and former LSU running back Logan Diggs added a 6-yard scoring run for Ole Miss (5-0, 3-0 SEC), which outgained the Tigers, 480 yards to 254. LSU (4-1, 1-1), which has struggled to run the ball this season, played without top running back Caden Durham and gained just 57 yards on the ground. That placed added pressure on quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, who completed 21 of 34 passes for 197 yards and a touchdown, but also was intercepted once. Still, the Tigers had a chance to pull within a field goal after Harlem Berry's 6-yard touchdown run with 5:04 left, but LSU's 2-point conversion attempt failed when Suntarine Perkins stuffed Ju'Juan Johnson's run.

Ole Miss, which finished with 166 yards rushing, bled the clock with first-down runs by Chambliss and Lacy before Chambliss' fourth-down completion to tight end Dae'Quan Wright sealed it. Wright had a chance to score, but went down, allowing the Rebels to run out the clock. Ole Miss responded by driving inside the LSU 10, settling for a short field goal. But the rhythm the Rebels established on that series carried over into the second quarter, when Mississippi outgained LSU 197-40, scored two TDs and came within 3 yards of another score. Receiver Cayden Lee was racing toward the end zone after a long catch over the middle when AJ Haulcy's heavy hit forced a fumble that safety Mansoor Delane recovered in the end zone. The play preserved a 7-3 Tigers lead. Lacy gave Mississippi a 10-7 lead, capping a drive on which the Rebels benefited from four LSU penalties for 49 yards - including one for roughing the passer and two for pass interference. Lee's 2-yard reception near the pylon made it 17-7 just before halftime on a series that included a fourth-and-1 conversion on Chambliss' quick pass to Dae'Quan Wright. Damian Ramos' fields goals of 40 and 48 yard field goal pulled LSU to 17-13 in the third quarter before Diggs' TD widen Ole Miss' lead again in the fourth. - Ole Miss/AP College Football

  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
