You think? If Kiffin happens to get assaulted by one of those equines Saturday night, best check for a New Orleans license plate.

All officers that are not Oxford PD or Lafayette County Sheriff were deputized over zoom. They will have authority.

Yea that’s like a 3 hour drive to Nola and I wouldn’t call that regional

I believe Oxford is looking for mounted patrol horse and officers.
NOPD has one of the best mounted patrol horse units int he county and they’re extremely comfortable with crowd control. I’m sure that was the thinking from Oxford PD.

Surprisingly enough she has done a good job at NOPD. I think the person she hit with the car was a drunk that walked out in front of her.
Maybe the Chief shouldn’t drive at night, but her leadership hasn’t been bad.

Well who says the NOPD wasn’t authorized to assist?

Exactly. That's why I am staying back in BR for this one.

Who is going to pay for it? The very few taxpayers in New Orleans. She's doing her job.
Yes and no.
On security exchanges, I'd assume Oxford pays for lodging and meals/per diem.
The visting security force likely has their home jurisdiction pay for fuel and wages, as they treat the event as a training opportunity for crowd control. That said, I doubt a major sports/entertainment venue city, tourist attraction, and host city to the largest Mardi Gras in the US need a lot of "training" opportunities. So, yes, it makes sense for NOPD not to support to keep LEOs local andbsave tax dollars. Mobile makes more sense to justify the support should the city want to do so, even though they have similar events at a much smaller scale than NOPD.
They likely have no arrest/detention authorities and will be paired with Oxford or University PD officers who will handle any actual arrests/detentions.

This board cracks me up!
A. Oxford and Ole Miss get officers from other police forces for every game. It’s a town of 15K people that swells to 80K or more.
B. It’s an emotional game at night. If they don’t get extra help, then IF there is a problem, they would get blamed for not beefing up the force.
C. There could quite possibly be people showing up in Oxford, that aren’t really fans of either school, looking for trouble. Just a few bad actors could make things ugly.
D. When Tennessee fans started tossing stuff on the field, it was not aimed at Kiffin. It was because of calls by the refs that they thought were bad calls. Yes, they were in a lather because Kiffin was there, but the littering of the field was not directed toward Kiffin.

This is probably a good thing for ole miss. Them nopd boys would rather pop trunks than deal with paperwork.
Posted on 9/16/26 at 10:28 am to FreedomBarefoot
Why on Earth would the NOPD need to be there? Send some Louisiana State troopers if you're really concerned and be done with it. Oxford will have a big police presence from OPD, LCSO, and MS State Troopers.
