NCAA transfer window opens in 3 weeks: Rebel Roundup
Your daily briefing on what’s going on with Ole Miss Athletics
A lot will happen in the next three weeks. No. 9 Ole Miss will have played its final two regular season games, all conference championship games will have been played and we will know who will be playing for a national championship.
Also, the NCAA winter transfer window will be open. More than 50 FBS players are currently in the portal (that number is only going to go up) and will look for greener pastures before the window closes Dec. 28.
This year’s transfer portal will slightly different than in past years, but teams will still have an opportunity to do what Ole Miss did in last year’s transfer window.
The Rebels had won 11 games, but the season still felt disappointing (especially a 52-17 loss to Georgia) and the Rebels became highly motivated buyers. Ole Miss brought in 18 transfers in the winter and two more in the spring. Those transfers are a big reason why Ole Miss is ranked in the top 10 and in the thick of the hunt for a spot in the 12-team playoff.

Ole Miss to learn plenty with CFP rankings: Rebel Roundup
Your daily briefing on what’s going on with Ole Miss Athletics.
Ole Miss football will get a lot of its questions answered tonight.
The College Football Playoff Committee will release its third edition of its rankings at 6 p.m. tonight on ESPN. The Rebels figure to be included in the committee’s rankings, but where they’re ranked – and more importantly where other teams are ranked – will be telling to how clear the Rebels’ path to a playoff berth is.
The SEC has five teams with two losses and how the committee ranks those teams will determine who just needs to win out and who needs help.
For the Rebels, what will be important to know is where does the committee rank Georgia? How far does Tennessee fall after losing to the Bulldogs? Is LSU fall out of the top 25? How far does South Carolina rise after beating Missouri? Is Ole Miss ranked ahead of BYU (who lost to unranked Kansas, but still in contention for the Big 12 championship)? Where does the highest-ranked Group of 5 team rank?
How the committee answers those questions will go a long way in determining in if Ole Miss simply needs to just win its final two games or needs to rack up style points in those wins?
Of course, a loss will put the Rebels in the same boat as LSU. Out of the playoffs.

With a clear path to the playoff, Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin talks to reporters
The Rebels’ head coach spoke with reporters about a variety of issues.
OXFORD, Miss. – Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin and his players came into the 2024 season with the loftiest goals and highest expectations an Ole Miss team has had since a Manning played quarterback.
Despite a shocking home loss to Kentucky and overtime loss to LSU, the Rebels are still in position to accomplish most of those goals. An conference championship isn’t likely, but a spot in the new 12-team playoff is and the Rebels’ path is crystal clear.
Beat Florida. Beat Mississippi State in the Egg Bowl.
If Ole Miss can win those two games, it should be in the playoff.
With that in mind, Kiffin started the week off with his weekly Monday press conference with reporters and talked about the playoffs and much more.
