Ole Miss defeats LSU 32-24 in Week 3 upset

Ole Miss overcame a 24-7 deficit to defeat No. 7 LSU 32-24 on Saturday, snapping a late drive with an interception on fourth-and-goal. Quarterback Trinidad Chamblis threw for 363 yards and three touchdowns, including a fourth-quarter run that restored the Rebels' lead. The win gives Ole Miss two quality victories this season and could influence its chances for an at-large playoff spot or an SEC championship berth.

Louisiana State University, coached by former Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin, fell short despite a 75-yard third-quarter drive that narrowed the gap. The loss leaves LSU competitive but still a possession game away from a win on the road.

Other Week 3 highlights include Louisville's 41-31 victory over No. 16 SMU, Kentucky's 31-21 upset of No. 8 Texas A&M, and Mississippi State quarterback Kamario Taylor's four-touchdown performance in a 41-34 win at South Carolina. West Virginia defeated No. 25 Virginia 38-27, while Clemson rebounded from a loss to North Carolina with a 28-20 win.

Vanderbilt earned a 35-31 win over NC State after freshman Jared Curtis threw for 277 yards and three touchdowns. Conversely, NC State lost to Vanderbilt on a last-second defensive play, and Texas A&M's defeat by Kentucky raised concerns about its playoff prospects. Arkansas, Colorado, and Kansas also suffered losses, adding pressure on their respective coaches.
