BATON ROUGE, La. – Ole Miss traveled to Death Valley on Saturday to take on the No. 5 LSU Tigers in a battle for the Magnolia Bowl trophy. What ensued was a frustrating night for the Rebels in all aspects of the game, culminating in a 45-16 defeat.
After being put into a difficult spot early, following a Jordan Ta’amu interception on the first drive, the Ole Miss defense started off strong, forcing LSU to attempt a 53-yard field goal.
