Ole Miss unveils uniform combination as it prepares to host Tulane on Saturday

A former SEC program faces a current SEC program as Ole Miss and Tulane meet for the 73rd time on Saturday night and for the first time since 2012.

The last time these 2 teams met, the Rebels shut out the Green Wave 39-0. But that win, along with the previous meeting in 2010, was vacated as part of NCAA sanctions. Counting those 2 games, Ole Miss has won the last 11 meetings between the teams.

Lane Kiffin’s team is known for a high-octane offense led by quarterback Matt Corral, but its defense has looked strong in the early stages of the season. That will be put to the test against a Green Wave program looking for an upset win on the road.

The Rebels released their uniform combination on Twitter, and as you can see below, they’ll be wearing their popular powder-blue helmets with red jerseys.

POWDER. ON. RED.
