LSU Tigers Wide Receiver References Ole Miss Football's Stadium is 'Personal' To Him

Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels will open SEC Media Days on Monday as one of the first programs to take the podium in Atlanta (Ga.).

After navigating the NCAA Transfer Portal, Spring Camp and summer workouts, the next piece of the offseason consists of SEC Media Days this week.

Kiffin will be accompanied by quarterback Austin Simmons, wide receiver Cayden Lee and linebacker TJ Dottery with the Rebels preparing to field questions from the media on Monday.

The other programs fielding questions on Monday are the LSU Tigers, South Carolina Gamecocks and Vanderbilt Commodores.

Prior to LSU taking the main stage, Tigers wide receiver Chris Hilton Jr. addressed the media where he singled out one stadium that's meaningful to him.

Hilton, a fifth-year senior for the Bayou Bengals, stated Vaught Hemingway Stadium in Oxford (Miss.) is one that stands out.

During the 2023 season, the LSU Tigers traveled to the Magnolia State for a Southeastern Conference clash against Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels.

Late in the fourth quarter, Hilton had an opportunity to reel in a touchdown pass delivered by Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Jayden Daniels.

Chris Hilton references Ole Miss as a venue that’s personal to him. Says he had a chance to win the game in 2023 and it didn’t happen. @LSUfootball #LSU

Now, the memory has been etched in his mind as he continues navigating his college career.
