The Ole Miss Rebels (11-1, 7-1 SEC) wrapped up the 2025 regular season with a 38-19 win over the Mississippi State Bulldogs at Davis Wade Stadium on Friday afternoon.

Despite a chaotic week in Oxford for Lane Kiffin and the Rebels, the program hit the road to Starkville where the program handled business in an Egg Bowl showdown.

“But, hey, today is about this game. And like you said, 11 wins potentially for the first time in school history. That’s the first time for 11 wins in the entire state, by any program, in the regular season. So, a lot on the line, and our guys are focused and ready to play,” Kiffin said on Friday.

“This noise thing you’re referring to? This has been going on for weeks. This isn’t new for us."

Now, after earning the win, the Rebels remain in the Top-10 of the AP Top-25 Poll with "Conference Championship Week" near.
