3 SEC games that could give Lane Kiffin's Ole Miss a hard time in the 2024 season

The Ole Miss Rebels are expected to be in the College Football Playoff in 2024. Ole Miss was active in the transfer portal landing several star players, and quarterback Jaxson Dart is returning to the team.

However, Ole Miss plays in the SEC, which is a tough conference, and they have some hard conference games in 2024. Here are three SEC matchups that could give coach Lane Kiffin and the Rebels a hard time.

3 Ole Miss matchups that will give Lane Kiffin a hard time in the SEC

#1, Georgia, Nov. 9

The Georgia Bulldogs are the favorites to win the national championship in 2024, so there is no harder matchup in college football than playing them.

The only good news for Ole Miss is the game is at home, which gives them a slight advantage in the matchup. However, the Rebels are seven-point underdogs against the Bulldogs even though they are at home.

#2, LSU, Oct. 12

The Ole Miss Rebels will have to go on the road to play the LSU Tigers on Oct. 12. Playing in LSU is always difficult, and if this is a night game, it will be that much harder.

The Rebels are 2.5-point underdogs on the road against LSU, showing that the oddsmakers also believe this will be a tough matchup. But, if Ole Miss can go into LSU and win, it would be a statement win and help their chances of making it to the playoffs.

#3, Florida, Nov. 23

Ole Miss' next hardest game is one of their final games against Florida or Mississippi State, but the reason Florida is No. 3 is because this game is on the road.

The swamp is always a tough place to play, regardless of whether or not the Gators are a good team. The fans get into it, while the heat could also cause some problems.

However, Ole Miss is a 6.5-point favorite to defeat Florida.
