The end of Ole Miss – Texas A&M was pure chaos on Sunday. Though, to be fair, things were pretty chaotic well before the final whistle.
Lane Kiffin started his day by getting booed off College GameDay and by early afternoon he was watching his offensive lineman get punched in the groin. But the pièce de résistance in the matchup between SEC rivals came during the final drive.
After Texas A&M battled back from a 28-14 deficit for a chance to win or force overtime with the clock expiring, quarterback Max Johnson tossed up a jump ball that went right into the hands of Ole Miss’ DeShawn Gaddie Jr.
What looked like a clear interception in real time was overturned upon review. Officials ruled Gaddie didn’t maintain possession before his momentum carried him out of bounds.
The Aggies were given new life. It amounted to just a few yards and a must-convert field goal attempt from 47 yards with two seconds remaining.
As Randy Bond’s kick went up for the Texas A&M, Ole Miss broke through the line and got a few fingers on the ball to deflect it safely away from the uprights.

Final score: Ole Miss 38, Texas A&M 35.
The Aggies dropped to 5-4 on the season and 3-3 in conference play. Jimbo Fisher’s job security will certainly be called into question again as he tries to navigate the final three games of the year.
But that comes later. First was another especially deep fried video from Ole Miss that will break your brain if the game didn’t already do so.

Of course they had to quote tweet Texas A&M in the video drop. It just means more.
