No. 4 LSU (4-0, 1-0 SEC) will travel to the Magnolia State in Week 5 for an SEC showdown against Lane Kiffin and the No. 13 ranked Ole Miss Rebels.

After capturing four consecutive wins to open the season, including victories over Clemson and Florida, the Bayou Bengals will look to keep their 2025 record unblemished.

Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels will once again present a unique challenge for Kelly and Co. with their up-tempo offense clicking on all cylinders out the gate this season.

"Lane does a great job adapting to what's going on in the game itself," Kelly said of Kiffin as a playcaller.

"I think, more than anything else, you can plan for things to happen, but then you have to be able to prepare for what's the next step, and he's obviously very experienced at what he does. During the game, he can adjust as he sees that he needs to."
