Ole Miss fans flip signature LSU ‘Neck’ chant for NSFW celebration
The Ole Miss Rebels took down Lane Kiffin and the LSU Tigers 32-24 in Week 3, sending fans in a frenzy after the game on Saturday.
Following a hard-fought victory over LSU, Ole Miss fans celebrated their win by embracing a distinctive 'Neck' chant. This chant, which had previously been linked to explicit crowd behavior at LSU games, became a symbol of Ole Miss' triumph in their first meeting with Coach Lane Kiffin since his departure from the Rebels. The 'Neck' chant, initially popularized by LSU's band, was notably dropped by the Tigers due to its inappropriate connotations.
Despite this, Ole Miss fans seized the opportunity to turn the chant into their own form of celebration, targeting LSU throughout the game and culminating in an emphatic victory. Ole Miss' strong performance in the first half, maintaining a 24-7 lead, proved decisive as they secured a crucial Week 3 win. Quarterback Trinidad Chambliss delivered an impressive performance against his former coach, completing 33 of 48 passes for 363 yards and two touchdowns, including a rushing touchdown.
Running back Kewan Lacy added 43 yards and a touchdown on nine carries, while wide receiver Traylon Ray contributed 115 receiving yards and a touchdown. The Rebels' success sets the stage for their upcoming game against Florida on September 26, as they gear up for their next challenge.
