The eighth-ranked Ole Miss Rebels faced a difficult task traveling to Norman to take on No. 13 Oklahoma.
Ole Miss actually blew a 12-point lead in the third quarter, but they shut out the Sooners in the fourth quarter to take a 34-26 road victory.
After the game, ESPN attempted an on-field interview with Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin, but he still had some business to attend to.

Kiffin was heard on the hot mic trash-talking Oklahoma lineman David Stone.
“You're a little calmer now than before,” Kiffin said.
Molly McGrath was clearly taken aback and asked Kiffin if he had the final say.
“This guy yelled at me during the game, like, five times how good they are, and we can't score on them,” Kiffin said.
It seemed like Stone was trying to make amends, but Kiffin was having none of it.

They scored, the Rebels did, as they led 25-13 with 5:57 left in the third quarter. However, the Sooners responded immediately with a 65-yard touchdown run by Xavier Robinson, and after forcing a three-pointer, the Sooners found the end zone again to lead, 26-25, late in the third.
The Rebels went on an 11-play drive that ended with an 8-yard touchdown pass from Trinidad Chambliss to Trace Bruckler.
With just over seven minutes left, the Sooners were ready to get the ball back, but Isaiah Sategna III lost a fumble on his punt return, and the Rebels capitalized with a field goal to take an 8-point lead with 4:09 left.
The Sooners couldn't convert a fourth-and-5 from the Ole Miss 30 and, despite forcing another punt, couldn't pull off a miracle on their final drive.
