In a historic showdown at the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, Ole Miss Rebels achieved their first 11-win season in school history, crushing Penn State with a 38-25 victory. Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart was dominant, throwing for an Ole Miss bowl record of 379 yards and three touchdowns, while also rushing for another. This impressive feat marked the most points (38) and total yards (540) the Nittany Lions have allowed this season.
The game saw a competitive first half, where both teams showcased resilience and skill. Early on, Penn State's Alex Felkins kicked a 26-yard field goal, countered swiftly by a 36-yard field goal from Ole Miss's Caden Davis. Jaxson Dart connected twice with standout tight end Caden Prieskorn, who pulled in a record 10 receptions for 136 yards and two touchdowns. Despite a brilliant 48-yard touchdown pass from Penn State's Beau Pribula to Nicholas Singleton, the Rebel's offense, led by Dart and supported by key plays from Quinshon Judkins and defensive efforts from Jared Ivey, proved too formidable, sealing the game with a strong second half surge.
