Ole Miss Shines in Fiesta Bowl Debut

Ole Miss made history in their first-ever Fiesta Bowl appearance, marking their 21st major bowl game and capping off their first 13-win season ever — also their first College Football Playoff berth since 2014. In a ranked showdown against Miami, the Rebels pulled off a thrilling 24-21 victory, tying the all-time series 2-2. Quarterback Trinidad Chambliss shattered career records with over 9,000 yards and 90 touchdowns, while Kewan Lacy tied a program rushing record with 1,500+ yards and broke the all-purpose yardage mark. Defense dominated with five sacks — Miami’s most allowed all season — as Suntarine Perkins climbed to sixth all-time in career sacks. Kicker Lucas Carneiro lit up the scoreboard with a career-long 58-yard field goal (tied for second-longest in Fiesta Bowl history) and set new program records for scoring and 50+ yard field goals.
