Ole Miss DE Jared Ivey wins another weekly award: Rebel Roundup
Your daily briefing on what’s going on with Ole Miss Athletics.
No. 11 Ole Miss defensive end Jared Ivey has racked up a pair of prestigious weekly awards following the Rebels’ dominant win against No. 12 Georgia.
Ivey was named the Football Writers Association of America Bronko Nagurski National Defensive Player of the Week for games during the weekend of Nov. 9, as announced by the FWAA on Tuesday.
Ivey and teammate Princely Umanmielen were named the SEC Defensive Linemen of the Week after holding a Kirby Smart-led Georgia to its fewest points scored (10), fewest total yards and fewest rushing yards (59).
Ivey had seven tackles against Georgia, as well as two sacks, a forced fumble and two pass breakups. He now has 16 sacks in his Ole Miss career, moving him into ninth all-time. Ivey has recorded 31 total tackles (19 solo) this season along with 9.5 tackles for loss, 7.0 sacks, four QB hurries, two forced fumbles, two pass breakups and one fumble recovery. Per PFF, Ivey ranks as the No. 14 defender overall in the FBS at an 88.7 grade – as well as the No. 10 pass rusher overall at an 89.2 grade. Among just edge defenders, Ivey ranks fifth in pass rushing and sixth overall.

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.
