Game updates, live scores in college football

OXFORD – The Ole Miss football season is picking up steam.

The no. 6 Rebels (4-0) host Kentucky (2-2, 0-2 SEC) today in the Ole Miss conference opener. It is also a homecoming. Coach Lane Kiffin said an SEC opponent will test the undefeated Rebels in a way their non-conference opponents couldn't. The Wildcats are winless in conference play but lost narrowly to No. 1 Georgia two weeks ago.

The Rebels bring significant star power to the game. Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart is the nation's leader passing. Ole Miss defensive lineman Jared Ivey, who missed last week's game with an ankle injury, is likely to play in Week 5, according to the injury report.

Ole Miss 30, Kentucky 10: The Rebels may be facing their first test of the season, but everything they've shown in 2024 suggests they won't give up. If the Rebels' rushing game gets swallowed up, Dart can come out on top. The Rebels should be able to pull off a one-dimensional victory, leaning on Dart when necessary.
