Ole Miss QB Trinidad Chambliss Leads 24-19 Upset Over No. 4 LSU

Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss, a Division II transfer from Ferris State, has emerged as a standout player, leading the Rebels to a key 24-19 upset over No. 4 LSU and earning SEC Offensive Player of the Week honors. Chambliss has posted three consecutive 300-yard passing games, a first for an Ole Miss QB since 2017, while also showcasing dual-threat capabilities with significant rushing yards, complicating defenses and providing new offensive options for coach Lane Kiffin. His performance has sparked discussions about him potentially becoming the full-time starter over Austin Simmons, with Kiffin describing it as a "champagne problem." Chambliss's journey from a lightly recruited Division II player to SEC success highlights his development and resilience, earning praise including Heisman Trophy hype from past winners. Meanwhile, Ole Miss quarterback commit Rees Wise has expressed admiration for Chambliss's play, reflecting the excitement around the Rebels' quarterback position. The team, currently undefeated, will continue its season following a bye week, with Chambliss solidifying his role as a central figure in Ole Miss football's 2025 campaign.
