Mississippi and its high-flying offense stalled in the season’s first matchup of ranked SEC West teams. The 20th-ranked Rebels get a quick second chance in that scenario, while quarterback Jayden Daniels and No. 12 LSU's own dynamic offense hope to avoid a similar fate on the road. Ole Miss (3-1, 0-1 Southeastern Conference) is trying to rebound from that 24-10 loss at No. 12 Alabama and remain a division contender.
Jalen Milroe was planted on his back just after he delivered his biggest pass of the season. When the Alabama quarterback finally got to his feet, it only took a moment to realize the result: a 33-yard touchdown strike to freshman Jalen Hale that helped the 13th-ranked Crimson Tide beat No. 15 Mississippi 24-10 on Saturday.

Caden Davis kicked a career-long 56-yard field goal to give Ole Miss (2-0) a 10-point lead with […]
