Overview

• Ole Miss topped No. 4 LSU 24-19 in Oxford, moving to 5-0 as the Magnolia Bowl narrative centered on the Kiffin–Weeks connection.
• Postgame, Kiffin quipped on ABC that he was "looking for Whit" to see if they "covered the over," a nod to his earlier "Take the over" post on X.
• LSU linebacker Whit Weeks had a viral in-game moment appearing to vomit, then exited in the fourth quarter with an apparent lower‑leg injury and did not return.
• Landry Kiffin attended in a custom outfit referencing Weeks’ No. 40 and posed for a pregame on-field photo with her father.
• Kiffin praised Weeks earlier in the week as "an awesome kid" from "a great family"; a broadcast also reported he sought a "family check" via Kirby Smart, a claim not independently confirmed.
