Ole Miss won by 32 on Saturday, and the least useful thing you can do with that game is try to learn from it. That was the thread running through Monday's Locked On Ole Miss: a 41-9 win over Charlotte that was built to teach you nothing, the one receiver who got loose from the plan anyway, a blueprint for LSU's defense that's hiding in a two-and-a-half-year-old bowl game, and a number on Saturday's line that most of you haven't looked at yet.

This is the one that's been circled since the schedule dropped. No. 8 Ole Miss (2-0) hosts No. 7 LSU (2-0) on Saturday night at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford, with kickoff set for 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC — and College GameDay is rolling into town for it. Two undefeated top-10 teams, the Magnolia Bowl on the line, and a storyline that writes itself.

Good morning, Everydayers. We're four days out from the biggest home game in recent memory: No. 8 Ole Miss welcomes No. 7 LSU to Vaught-Hemingway on Saturday night, ABC has kickoff at 6:30 p.m. CT, and College GameDay is setting up in the Grove. It's the first top-10 meeting between these programs since 1962, and Lane Kiffin makes his return to Oxford as LSU's head coach.

Four days to LSU, and the two men at the center of the biggest story in college football spent Monday complimenting each other into the ground. That should worry you more than a grudge would.

Kiffin spent his LSU press conference deflecting the reunion and complimenting the Rebels into the ground. Here is every word of it that was about Ole Miss.

Golding spent twenty-four minutes on Monday refusing to make LSU week about Lane Kiffin — and then told his players exactly what happens to teams that do.

Two podiums, two states and no shots fired four days before LSU visits Oxford, and Locked On Ole Miss host Steven Willis says that is worse news for the Rebels than a grudge would be.

Good morning, Rebels. Here's your daily Locked On Ole Miss rundown — everything new across the shows in one place.

LSU week is finally here, and it arrives with the storyline of the season: Lane Kiffin returns to Oxford on Saturday as LSU's head coach, College GameDay in tow, with No. 8 Ole Miss hosting No. 7 in a top-10 SEC opener. Below is everything worth reading as the Rebels sharpen up — Pete Golding's message to his team, Trinidad Chambliss squaring off with his old coach, the secondary questions that won't go away — plus basketball, soccer and a little around Oxford.

A 23-over second round dropped the No. 19 Rebels from T-12 to 17th at Inverness. Cooper Claycomb is still the only Rebel in the top 20.

John Fourcade told Locked On Ole Miss the breakdowns in the Rebels' back end are blown assignments rather than an athletic shortfall, which is why the Charlotte tape mattered more on defense than on offense.

Ole Miss beat Charlotte 41-9 on Saturday, and here is the honest truth about a 32-point win six days before LSU: it was not built to teach you anything. On Monday's Locked On Ole Miss, I broke down why that game was almost perfectly boring on purpose, the one receiver who got away from the plan anyway, the 2023 blueprint for beating LSU's defense, and the number hanging over Saturday night.

Good morning, Everydayers. We are five days out from the biggest night Vaught-Hemingway has hosted in a long time. No. 7 LSU rolls into Oxford on Saturday for the SEC opener with College GameDay in tow, and the Rebels arrive off a 41-9 tune-up over Charlotte that did exactly what it needed to: get healthy, stay clean, and give the Tigers as little to study as possible.

Lane Kiffin comes back to Oxford on Saturday night, and College GameDay is coming with him. Inside: why 41-9 was built to teach you nothing, the Caleb Cunningham hitch that Pete Golding says can go 60, the secondary question Golding answered bluntly, and a betting line that has moved four points away from the Rebels.

Cooper Claycomb opened his Ole Miss career at even par and T-8 individually, but the No. 19 Rebels are 15-over as a team on a Donald Ross course that bit everyone.

Kai Milburn and Igor Kudriashov closed out Ole Miss men's tennis' first tournament of the fall with a 6-3 win in the doubles final.

Locked On Ole Miss host Steven Willis says the 41-9 win was built to teach nobody anything, and that Caleb Cunningham is the one thing that leaked out of it.

Good morning, Rebels. Here's your daily Locked On Ole Miss rundown — everything new across the shows in one place.

Good Monday morning, Rebel Nation. The tune-ups are officially over. Ole Miss dispatched Charlotte 41-9 in the home opener, climbed to No. 8 in the new AP poll, and now the whole sport turns its eyes to Oxford: No. 7 LSU — and a returning Lane Kiffin — arrive Saturday night for a top-10 showdown, with College GameDay in tow. Here's everything worth your click this morning, from the Charlotte report cards and the early Vegas number to a basketball roster quietly taking shape.

Ole Miss won 41-9 and Pete Golding spent twelve minutes at the podium mostly unhappy. The secondary, the third quarter, and the injury news that changes the LSU week.

Ole Miss ran 60 offensive snaps and played 65 on defense against Charlotte. Thirteen defensive linemen were charted, nobody up front played more than 24 snaps, and two players who logged better than half the Louisville game did not appear at all.
