SUMMARY: Mississippi’s Republican legislative leaders, including House Speaker Jason White and Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann, are advocating for Medicaid expansion to support low-income workers despite opposition from Governor Tate Reeves, who views Medicaid as “welfare.” Business groups endorse this initiative, arguing it would improve public health and strengthen communities. Medicaid expansion could benefit approximately 75,000 working individuals. Additionally, the leaders plan to focus on tax reduction measures in the upcoming legislative session, such as phasing out the state income tax and lowering the grocery tax, as they pursue various reform priorities for 2025.

Southern Miss managed only three points in the second half, unable to capitalize on early opportunities, and suffered from multiple turnovers and sacks.

SUMMARY: No. 9 Ole Miss’s national championship hopes were dashed after a 24-17 loss to Florida, a must-win game for the Rebels. Despite outgaining the Gators, Ole Miss failed to score in the red zone, resulting in two turnovers on downs and a missed field goal. Jaxson Dart had a strong start with two touchdown passes but threw two late interceptions. Ole Miss struggled on the ground without its leading rusher, while Florida capitalized with a balanced attack. The Rebels, now 8-3, must regroup for the Egg Bowl against Mississippi State. This loss likely drops them from playoff contention.
