The Ole Miss Rebels will welcome the Georgia Southern Eagles to Oxford on Sept. 21.
Ole Miss is coming off an 11-2 season that saw it capture a Peach Bowl victory over the Penn State Nittany Lions in December. The Rebels return a plethora of talent from last year's team , but they also made a huge haul in the transfer portal to shore up some holes on its roster.
That's not to say that Georgia Southern has been unsuccessful since moving up to the FBS in 2014, as it has logged six bowl game appearances in that span as part of the Sun Belt Conference. Since Clay Helton took over the program in 2022, the Eagles have posted a 12-14 overall record, but they'll look to improve on that mark in 2024, even if a trip to Oxford is a daunting task.
That storyline will make this game in late September an interesting one, but Georgia Southern's roster will also have its fair share of talking points. The Eagles return leading rusher Jalen White this season as well as second-leading receiver Derwin Burgess Jr. .
