Lane Kiffin had the opportunity to leave Ole Miss for Auburn during the offseason but chose to stay in Oxford instead of moving to The Plains. The Tigers’ top choice turned down the job so they pivoted to Hugh Freeze, who once coached the Rebels before he resigned after “pattern of personal misconduct.”
This unique duo of SEC West coaches sets up a very interesting rivalry with a lot of underlying storylines. When the two teams get together on the gridiron, there is going to be bad blood.
That was evident right away.

Cincinnati Bengals receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins form one of the NFL’s best pass-catching duos. Arguably, they are the premier pair in the entire league.
Higgins recorded 900 yards in his first season in Cincinnati, but since Chase joined the team via the 2021 NFL Draft, the pair have each crested 1,000 yards in the past two seasons.
In fact, the two have combined for 4,621 receiving yards and 35 touchdowns over the past two seasons. That’s despite Higgins missing four games and Chase missing five.

While their prominent place in a football team’s 2022–23 run to a title may seem ripped out of time, the tactic has clearly payed off for Philadelphia.
