Ole Miss has a big revenge game against Liberty on Saturday, and they will be dressed well for the occasion. 

The team shared their uniform combination on Twitter on Friday. 

The Rebels will go with navy helmets and jerseys with gray pants. The pants have a red accent stripe on the side, and they will wear white shoes and gloves.

Ole Miss-Liberty pits two top-20 offenses against each other, making it one of the more interesting games of Week 10.

But the game has more importance than just notching a non-conference win. Liberty head coach Hugh Freeze returns to Oxford for the first time as a head coach since his departure from the same job at Ole Miss in 2016. Freeze resigned from the position as a result of numerous recruiting violations which led to the discovery of issues of morality. As a result of the situation, the NCAA vacated 27 wins Freeze had in Oxford; the only unaffected season was 2015.

He was also the tight ends coach at Ole Miss from 2006-2007, his last assistant coaching job before becoming the head coach at Lambuth.

Freeze took the job at Liberty in 2019 and has a 25-8 record there.

Auburn transfer and Liberty quarterback Malik Willis returns to the SEC West in this battle. The Flames signal caller is completing 66.7% of his passes and has 21 touchdowns and six interceptions this year. Along with Ole Miss quarterback Matt Corrall, he could be a first-round NFL Draft pick this spring.

Ole Miss is a 9.5-point favorite at home despite being banged up with numerous injuries, especially on the offensive side of the ball. Corrall aggravated his ankle injury last weekend against Auburn, and Ole Miss is without their top-three receivers.

The potential shootout game with an over/under of 67 kicks off at 11:00 a.m. CT on the SEC Network.
