Lane Kiffin announces Wake Forest to buy out trip to Oxford
After Ole Miss rolled to a 40-6 win over Wake Forest in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, on Saturday. The trip east for the Rebels was part of a planned home-and-home. Except the return game apparently won’t be happening.
That is what Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin said after the win, at least. He told reporters that the Demon Deacons chose to “buy out” the remainder of the contract and, therefore, the return trip to Oxford, according to Brad Logan.
That game was scheduled for Sept. 13, 2025.
Along with leaving North Carolina without a game on the schedule in 2025, the Rebels also saw a number of players get banged up.

Defensive end Jared Ivey was carted to the locker room after suffering an injury in the second half against Wake Forest on Saturday. Ivey suffered the injury in the third quarter and had to be helped off the field by the Rebels training staff.
He was taken to the injury tent, where he remained for quite some time trying to get ready to go back into the game. Unfortunately, that would not be the case as CW sideline reporter Treavor Scales offered an update with eight minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.
“We were watching the progress, or lack thereof, from Jared Ivey,” he said. “Unfortunately, we did see a cart come and pick him up from the injury tent. We will continue to await more on his return.”
Additionally, receiver Tre Harris has been taken to the locker room after suffering an injury Saturday against Wake Forest. Harris came up limping after making a catch with around six minute to go in the third quarter.
The receiver ran off to the sidelines under his own power but was later seen walking to the locker room with trainers. It caused a scare for Rebels fans as the senior is one of the top pass catchers on the roster.
Fortunately, Harris wasn’t in the locker room too long before he returned to the bench. He re-entered the game not long after that, so it appears that the injury was not one of serious nature.
