Ole Miss Football Makes Final Decision on Lane Kiffin For College Football Playoff

Our Summary
Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin remains undecided about his future with the program as the team prepares for a potential first-ever College Football Playoff berth. The Rebels, ranked No. 7 with a 10-1 record, face uncertainty as Kiffin considers offers from LSU and Florida, with LSU reportedly gaining momentum. Kiffin plans to announce his decision on November 29, following the Egg Bowl against Mississippi State.
Amidst speculation, Ole Miss Athletics Director Keith Carter and Kiffin agreed that he will coach the Egg Bowl.
