Summary
88 seconds from a tie game, Trinidad Chambliss drove Ole Miss from its 25-yard line into field-goal range, setting up Lucas Carneiro’s 48-yarder for a 41-38 win over Louisville.
Chambliss finished with 386 total yards and four touchdowns, overcoming a first-half fumble and interception after Ole Miss lost star running back Kewan Lacy for most of the second half.
Deuce Alexander fueled the comeback with two 62-yard third-quarter touchdown catches, while Louisville’s Lincoln Kienholz nearly pulled the upset in his first college start despite clock-management issues.
The shootout exposed defensive problems for both teams, but gave Ole Miss a quality Week 1 test before hosting Charlotte and then facing LSU in a major SEC matchup in two weeks.
