Ole Miss vs. Kentucky: How to watch, live stream, start time, TV channel
Saturday welcomes the meat of the schedule for No. 6 Ole Miss, hosting Kentucky to open up Southeastern Conference play.
A little rain rolled in on Friday as part of the outer bands from Hurricane Helene but come game time things should be dry and a touch cloudy. Perfect football weather in the final weekend of September, if you ask me.
As for the game itself it presents the first opportunity for the Rebels to show their early-season sample size was not a fluke by taking advantage of inferior opponents and running up the score like playing a video game.
Kentucky will be a challenge and Rebels head coach Lane Kiffin is very aware of the fact the Wildcats were a play away from knocking off then No. 1-ranked Georgia two weeks ago. A win for the Rebels gets the ‘real’ season off on the right foot to break the seal on SEC play.
