No. 8 Ole Miss (6-1, 3-1 SEC) will square off against the Oklahoma Sooners in Week 9 with the Rebels looking to get back in the win column after a loss to the Georgia Bulldogs this past Saturday.

Lane Kiffin and the Rebels will continue blocking out the noise with an opportunity to bounce back against a Top-15 foe on the road.

After heading into the fourth quarter against Georgia with a 35-26 lead, the Bulldogs responded with 17 unanswered points to pull off the comeback win.

“Really disappointed that we put ourselves in a position to go 7-0 in a really big game at Georgia and have a nine-point lead with a minute and a half left in the third quarter,” Kiffin said Sunday evening.

“Had them actually in a fourth-and-1 on their own minus-44 and they go for it. Obviously they should in that situation. We have them stopped short of the first down and the guy keeps moving his feet and we let him get the first down.

“If you said before the season, ‘Hey, you’re going to be 6-0 and up two scores and they’re going to go for it and you’re going to have them stopped,’ it would have been interesting to see at that point having the ball on that side of the 50 up nine what would have happened.”

Now, with five games remaining for the Ole Miss program, the ESPN Football Power Index has weighed in on the win percentage for each matchup.
