Hoping to rebound after a loss to Georgia, No. 8 Ole Miss traveled to Norman, Okla. to take on the No. 13 Sooners. The 34-26 win puts Ole Miss in a prime position for a College Football Playoff berth.
First Half
The Rebel offense opened the game quickly and gained 47 yards in five plays. They made it down to the Oklahoma 28-yard line before two straight Trinidad Chambliss incompletions stalled the drive. Lucas Carneiro kicked a 45-yard field goal to put the Rebels out ahead 3-0.
Coming off of a hand injury, Oklahoma’s starting quarterback John Mateer settled into the game quickly and led the Sooners to tie the game with a field goal, set up with a beautiful 39-yard completion to Isaiah Sategna III.
