Winning back-to-back games for the first time in his tenure in Oxford, Lane Kiffin’s Ole Miss Rebels topped Will Muschamp’s South Carolina Gamecocks, 59-42, on Saturday at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.
Moving ahead for good, 45-42, with a 91-yard touchdown pass from redshirt sophomore Matt Corral to junior wide receiver Elijah Moore with 12:02 to play, the popular head coach provided one of the best celebrations of the 2020 season.
