Ole Miss Football Set to Kick-Off 2024 Season Against Furman
The Ole Miss football team is gearing up for their first game of the 2024 season as they prepare to host Furman on Saturday, August 31 at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. This will be just the second meeting between the two teams, with the first taking place a century ago.
Fans looking to catch the game can tune in at 6 p.m. CT on SEC Network+ and ESPN+ for the live stream, or on Ole Miss Radio Network for live audio coverage. Tickets for the game are limited, so fans are encouraged to act fast. The Rebels will be sporting white uniforms for the matchup.
Furman had a successful season in 2023, finishing with a 10-3 record and making it to the quarterfinals of the FCS playoffs. The Paladins had a strong defense, ranking 11th in scoring defense and 19th in total defense in the nation. However, they will need to fill key positions left vacant by their top tacklers and offensive players from last season.
As the game approaches, there are a few key players to keep an eye on for both teams. For Ole Miss, top transfer Walter Nolen is set to make his debut, while receiver Juice Wells and running back Ulysses Bentley IV will also be players to watch. On the Furman side, linebacker Evan DiMaggio, receiver Joshua Harris, and pass rusher Luke Clark will be leading the charge.
The matchup between Ole Miss and Furman promises to be an exciting start to the season, as both teams look to make an impact on the field.
