This Saturday not only marks a marquee opportunity for first-year head coach Lane Kiffin to get another conference win for Ole Miss as they take on the South Carolina Gamecocks at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium at 6:30pm CDT.
But it’s also a chance for yours truly to see a streak snapped that is held near and dear to my heart. Yes, I’m referring to the three-game win streak that Will Muschamp’s bunch will boast when they walk into Oxford, Miss. this weekend.
As a man who has married into this rivalry that is currently gridlocked at 8-8 all-time, I haven’t tasted victory since 2004 when Ethan Flatt outgunned Syvelle Newton en route to a 31-28 victory in Williams-Brice Stadium.
