Ole Miss 34, OU 26. Let’s get to the grades. 5 TAKEAWAYS: OU football haunted by missed opportunities in loss to Lane Kiffin, Ole Miss Early run game: D The OU run game returned to its woeful ways.

Despite Ole Miss going into halftime with a 22-10 lead, Oklahoma was able to storm back and actually go up 26-25 with 1:04 remaining in the third quarter after a Xavier Robinson 9-yard touchdown run. However, led by Ferris State transfer Trinidad Chambliss at quarterback, Ole Miss went on to score nine unanswered points to put the game on ice.

Missouri State improved to 4-3 on Tuesday night thanks to a 7-yard touchdown pass from Jacob Clark to Ronnel Johnson in overtime, lifting the Bears over New Mexico State in a battle of .500 squads. The TD capped a productive day for Clark, who totaled 283 passing yards and a trio of passing touchdowns.

Oklahoma (6-2) managed 342 yards of total offense and 13 downs, well below its season averages after most of the Sooners' production came on a 76-yard catch-and-run from Isaiah Setagna in the first half and Xavier Robinson's 65-yard scamper in the third quarter.

No. 8 Ole Miss (6-1 3-1 SEC) will return to action on Saturday for a Week 9 clash against the Oklahoma Sooners with the backend of the 2025 schedule arriving. After falling to the Georgia Bulldogs in Week 8, Lane Kiffin and Co. enter "must-win" territory down the stretch with the program looking to keep its College Football Playoff hopes alive.
