Description: Welcome to the Locked on Ole Miss podcast, your daily source for all things Ole Miss Rebels football! Join host Steven Willis and Ole Miss legend Bill Flowers as we break down the latest news and insights on the Rebels.In today's episode:šŸˆ Maturity on Display - The Rebels dominated South Carolina by 30 points, proving they've learned to handle expectations after big wins. Keon Lacey's emergence as a reliable running back gives this team the dimension last year's squad desperately lacked. Bill Flowers makes it clear: "We were one running back away from making the playoffs" in 2024.šŸ›”ļø Pete Golding's Defensive Masterclass - South Carolina's Lenore Sellers got exposed with six sacks. We analyze Golding's strategy of rushing just two players with "Johnny Manziel two spies" that neutralized the athletic quarterback.āš”ļø Citadel Game Strategy - Should Austin Simmons get more playing time? We debate Trinidad Chambliss's inconsistency versus his game management skills, and whether playing The Citadel is better than a bye week before Florida.šŸ’° The $13.5 Million Question - Should Ole Miss pay Lane Kiffin $13.5 million if he misses the playoffs again? Bill Flowers drops stunning statistics: Kiffin hadn't beaten a ranked SEC team on the road in six years before Oklahoma. Does he deserve the raise without a playoff appearance?šŸ”„ Florida and Egg Bowl Warnings - Nothing's guaranteed down the stretch. As Bill Flowers warns, "nothing more dangerous than a five win team in the egg bowl." Can Lane Kiffin prove his worth when it matters most?Subscribe for daily updates and exclusive insights on Ole Miss sports!0:00 Intro2:06 Big win shows coaching maturity3:29 Running back was missing piece7:29 Defense finally making explosive plays10:30 Citadel game better than a bye14:19 Trinidad Chamblas as game manager19:09 Austin Simmons needs significant playing time21:00 Should Ole Miss pay Kiffin $13.5M25:50 Making playoffs must be the requirement27:29 Florida and Mississippi State won't be easyOle Miss football, Lane Kiffin, SEC playoffs, college football rankings, Jaxson Dart, Keon Lacey, Pete Golding defense, South Carolina Gamecocks, Florida Gators, Egg Bowl, Mississippi State, coaching contracts, FCS games, Citadel football, Austin Simmons quarterback, SEC championship, college football recruiting, offensive strategy, defensive schemes, running game, playoff positioning, coaching rumors, SEC road wins, quarterback management, game planningFor your next listen, check out theĀ Locked On College Football podcast!
