Ole Miss has unveiled some icy uniforms for their Week 2 matchup with the Tulane Green Wave.

It’s going to be a hard-fought showdown for the Rebels, and they’re bringing all the drip for what could be a pivotal game. They even enlisted the help of Lil Uzi Vert to help show off their style.

Check out the hype video below, featuring Ole Miss’ all-white uniforms, set to Uzi’s Suicide Doors from his album Pink Tape to get the people going.

While Ole Miss may be one of the best dressed teams this weekend, they’re going to have their hands full against Tulane. The Green Wave are up to No. 24 in the country following a big victory over South Alabama last weekend, only four spots behind the Rebels in the rankings.

Simply put, Ole Miss can’t afford to lose to Tulane, not with the wealth of SEC teams on their schedule in 2023. Nevertheless, how the Rebels are dressed, or who they have to play this season isn’t any concern to Tulane, and the Green Wave are going to give Lane Kiffin and company all they can handle this weekend.

Lane Kiffin shares feelings on facing Tulane QB Michael Pratt

Meanwhile, Tulane QB Michael Pratt opened his senior season with another performance that showed why he’s one of the nation’s better players at his position. Now, in New Orleans this weekend, he will be a problem to stop for Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss.

Kiffin complimented Pratt during his press conference on Monday ahead of the Rebel’s Top-25 matchup with the Green Wave this weekend. He credited him for continuing to play like the veteran he is based on what he saw from Tulane’s opening win over South Alabama.

“The quarterback, basically, played as well as you can on air last week with one incompletion,” said Kiffin. “He’s very savvy, a veteran, sharp, accurate. A really good player.”

In Tulane’s 37-17 victory over the Jaguars, he finished 14/15 for almost 300 passing yards and four touchdowns. For those doing the math at home, over a quarter of his completions went for touchdowns while he also finished with a 93.3% completion rate. He ran for an additional 39 yards of offense too.

Kiffin has a quarterback of his own in Jaxson Dart who should make Ole Miss’ trip to Yulman Stadium into one of the better quarterback matchups of the weekend. Still, it’s going to fall more so on his defense to slow Pratt down if they want to start 2-0 on the year.
