SUMMARY: The Ole Miss football team dropped from sixth to twelfth in the Associated Press top 25 after a surprising upset by Kentucky, losing 20-17. Despite a strong start, Ole Miss struggled offensively against Kentucky’s defense and fell behind at halftime. The Rebels regained a brief lead in the second half but faltered in crucial moments. A late opportunity to tie the game was thwarted when the kicker’s attempt failed due to a high snap. The loss diminishes Ole Miss’s chances for a College Football Playoff spot, but Coach Lane Kiffin expressed optimism about bouncing back against South Carolina next week.

SUMMARY: Mississippi casinos experienced a revenue decline in the third quarter of 2024, contrasting with the overall growth of the U.S. gaming industry, which reported an 8.1% increase. Mississippi’s gaming revenue fell by 3.5% to $605.8 million, following a 2.3% decrease in the second quarter. This marks two consecutive quarters of downturns after a strong start to the year.

Lawmakers aim to revisit this issue in the 2025 session.
