Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels will take the field at Vaught Hemingway Stadium on Saturday night against the Georgia State Panthers to open the regular season.

The program is set to debut a redesigned roster in Oxford with redshirt-sophomore quarterback Austin Simmons lining up under center as the starter.

New York Giants signal-caller, and ex-Rebel Jaxson Dart, believes Simmons can carry the torch as the next quarterback in the Magnolia State.

"I'm really excited for the guys next year. Austin's going to kill it," Dart said of the 2025 Rebels. "He was my guy and just the conversations we've had, even since I've left. Him calling me and asking for advice.

"Me checking up on him, seeing how he's doing. I'm excited for this squad. I've seen a lot of the pieces come from the portal and they're going to be super explosive and pick up where we left off."
