Ole Miss

SEC · 2026 season

The story so far

Ole Miss fans spent the season fixated on whether Pete Golding could handle both head coach and defensive play-calling, with a gleeful LSU win giving way to a Florida blowout that soured everything. At 6-2, they keep winning but remain uneasy, eyeing Georgia with dread.

what fans talked about, week by week
Season-long

  • Early doubts about Golding calling the defense turned to praise after LSU, flipped back after Florida, and settled into steady mockery of his timeouts, a Texas field goal decision and third-and-long failures.

    “Lane Kiffin has zero wins in matchups with two top-10 wins. Pete Golding has 2 in 6 games as head coach.”
