In this story:


No. 17 Ole Miss will return to Vaught Hemingway Stadium in Week 3 for the Rebels' SEC clash against Sam Pittman and the Arkansas Razorbacks.

After opening the 2025 season with back-to-back wins over the Georgia State Panthers and Kentucky Wildcats, the competition level will rise on Saturday night against a fiery Razorbacks offense led by quarterback Taylen Green.

“Really dynamic. First of all, he’s dynamic, you know, athlete from a height, weight, speed standpoint to be able to run like he can, and I don’t think he was fully healthy in our game a year ago," Kiffin said.

"He’s a problem. He’s a lot to deal with and I think kind of similar that way to the South Carolina quarterback, LaNorris Sellers. Here’s two guys that are really hard to game plan for because they’re big and they can throw and run.”

Now, with game day less than 48 hours away, the predictions are rolling in for the Week 3 contest between the pair of SEC foes.
