No. 11 Ole Miss Faces Tough Test Against 3-0 Tulane
OXFORD, Miss. – No. 11 Ole Miss football, fresh off three wins, will host Tulane on September 20 at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. The Rebels are looking to maintain their momentum after victories over Georgia State, Kentucky, and Arkansas.
Tulane, also undefeated at 3-0, enters the game following a significant 34-27 win against Duke. The Green Wave’s strong start includes an earlier victory over Northwestern, where they secured a dominant 23-3 win. Tulane appears prepared to challenge the Rebels next Saturday.
“This game could be our toughest non-conference test of the season,” Ole Miss coach said. “Tulane has shown they can compete against top programs, and we need to be ready.”
The game is set to kick off at 2:30 p.m. CT and can be viewed on ESPN. Tickets are available for fans wanting to support the Rebels at home.
Key players to watch include Ole Miss’s running back Kewan Lacy, who has amassed impressive stats with 290 rushing yards this season, and Tulane quarterback Jake Retzlaff, who is ranked third nationally among quarterback rushers. Both teams have strong defenses, and how they perform could be critical in determining the outcome.
