No. 4 Ole Miss Hosts Washington State on Saturday as Chambliss Likely to Start

Lane Kiffin says injured starter Austin Simmons remains day to day, leaving Trinidad Chambliss in line to start.

Overview

  • Kickoff is set for 12:45 p.m. ET at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium on the SEC Network, with streaming available on Fubo.
  • Oddsmakers have Ole Miss favored by roughly 32.5 points, a lopsided line viewed as a potential look-ahead spot before trips to Georgia and Oklahoma.
  • Chambliss, a Division II transfer, is 3-0 with 300-plus passing yards in each start while Simmons has not played since Sept. 13.
  • Washington State’s rushing attack has lagged at under 78 yards per game on 2.6 yards per carry, a weakness Ole Miss will try to exploit.
  • Ole Miss has generated pressure but only five sacks through five games after a program-record 52 last season, heightening focus on finishing pass-rush opportunities.
