No. 6 Ole Miss Beats Mississippi State In Egg Bowl; Kiffin Decision Up Next

Per ESPN: STARKVILLE, Miss. -- — Trinidad Chambliss threw for 359 yards and four touchdowns, and Mississippi beat Mississippi State 38-19 Friday in the Battle for the Golden Egg.

The win was the 11th in the regular season for the Rebels, marking the most regular-season wins in school history. The Rebels accomplished the feat in the midst of head coach Lane Kiffin’s name being heavily linked to the open LSU job.

“It’s an unbelievable job by these players. We only returned two starters from last year, so, for these guys to overcome adversity throughout the year, play really well — they played a great second half today,” Kiffin said. “I’m just happy for our fans, for our players. All the stuff they dealt with all week from outside people saying they were distracted, there was noise. This is what these guys do. They’ve been doing it for a long time. I think it actually brings them together and they play (well) because of all the stuff outside.”
