Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels are red-hot to start the 2025 season with the program flaunting a 4-0 record out the gate.

Despite starting quarterback Austin Simmons going down with an ankle injury in Week 2 at Kentucky, the Rebels have received significant contributions from signal-caller Trinidad Chambliss.

The Ferris State transfer was thrown in the fire against the Arkansas Razorbacks in Week 3 and never looked back.

Chambliss has thrown for 719 yards and four touchdowns across two starts - while totaling 195 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.

The most important statistic for the Ferris State transfer - zero turnovers. He hasn’t turned the ball over and is completing nearly 68 percent of his passes.

The 6-foot, 200-pounder is No. 1 in the SEC in yards per pass attempt (11.6) and No. 2 in passer rating where he's led the Rebels to back-to-back wins over Arkansas and Tulane.

Now, Chambliss is in line to earn the start on Saturday against Brian Kelly and the LSU Tigers in Week 5 with the dual-threat signal-caller eyeing his third consecutive win.

Ole Miss is now over a quarter of the way done with the 2025 season with a four-game winning streak. What could the program's record be down the stretch?
