No. 6 Ole Miss (11-1, 7-1 SEC) will take the field at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium on Dec. 20 in the program's College Football Playoff debut against the Tulane Green Wave.

In what will be one of the biggest sporting events in Mississippi history, Pete Golding and Co. will host the Green Wave in Oxford to open the postseason.

Golding will make his debut as the head coach of the Rebels after Lane Kiffin made his move to depart the program for the LSU Tigers gig on Nov. 30.

"Leaving that Florida game, I think they know the expectation," Golding said of the Ole Miss fanbase. "They’ve created an environment here over the last couple years. You can look at the records across the SEC as far as home win/loss. They know how to do it right.

"So, I don’t think they need a message from me. If they can’t get up for a playoff game on Saturday in the Vaught, something’s wrong with them. I know they’ll be there. I know they’ll be loud and they’ll be proud. Hopefully we’ll put a good product on the field to make them happy when they leave."
