Originally known as the “Mississippi Flood”, the teams were renamed the Rebels in 1936. They compete in the Southeastern Conference (SEC) of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA)’s Division I, except for the rifle team, which participates in the Great America Rifle Conference because the SEC does not sponsor that sport.
Football Game Today
The Ole Miss Rebels will kickoff at 7 p.m. without head coach Lane Kiffin against the Louisville Cardinals to begin its 2021 college football season.
Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Ga. will host the Labor Day finale of week one of college football with the Rebels as nearly double digit favorites in the game. There has to be some amount of uncertainty for the betting world around how Ole Miss will perform without its offensive mastermind head coach, but offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby isn’t too shabby himself.
Score
The Louisville Cardinals (0-1) begin their season with a loss, falling to the Rebels in the Chick-Fil-A Kickoff Game in Atlanta.

Game Today
Ole Miss brought the opening weekend of college football to a close on Monday night with a 43-24 victory over Louisville at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. In a game that was never truly in doubt, the Rebels jumped out to a 26-0 lead by halftime and never looked back. Their dominant effort came with coach Lane Kiffin away from the team following a positive COVID-19 test, which made it all the more impressive for a program looking to take a step forward after last season’s 5-5 campaign during Kiffin’s first year.
Coach
Lane Kiffin, the head football coach at the University of Mississippi, said Saturday that he had tested positive for the coronavirus and would miss Monday night’s game against the University of Louisville, the season opener for both.
Every player and coach in the Mississippi football program is fully vaccinated — a point of pride for Mr. Kiffin, 46, in recent weeks — and the coach said in a statement on Saturday that he was “experiencing only mild symptoms.” He said no players were expected to miss Monday’s game, which will be played at a neutral site in Atlanta, and that no one else in the football program had tested positive.
