The biggest story in college football over the last few days and weeks has been what’s going on with Lane Kiffin at Ole Miss. Kiffin is the hottest name on the coaching carousel, and LSU and Florida have giant offers for him to bring him in. There is still a chance he comes back to Ole Miss, but questions remain about whether this has become a distraction for the Rebels.
The Rebels still have a game to play in Starkville, against a solid Mississippi State team, in one of the most bitter rivalry games in the country, and the Bulldogs would love nothing more than to beat the Rebels. However, ESPN analyst Peter Burns said he does not think there are actual distractions and that the Rebels should cruise to a win.
“It should mean nothing. This game should not be close,” Burns said.

— ESPN College Football (@ESPNCFB) November 25, 2025He reasoned that the Rebels run the ball extremely effectively thanks to Kewan Lacy at lead running back, and they will pound the run against the Bulldogs because that is the biggest weakness that has plagued Mississippi State all season.
Burns also said that if Mississippi State does end up winning the game, it would be one of the biggest choke jobs we have seen in recent memory, because the Rebels can beat MSU in multiple ways.
Everything revolving around Ole Miss is speculation at this point, but on Friday, they will prove whether the distractions were distractions in the first place.
