During the week of preparation before suffering a lopsided, 40-6 defeat at the hands of the Ole Miss Rebels on Saturday, Wake Forest decided to cancel the second game in its home-and-home series against the Rebels in 2025, putting the university on the hook for a $1 million cancellation fee, as first reported by Brett McMurphy of Action Network.
Speaking to reporters after the Rebels' win on Saturday, Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin initially spun the Demon Deacons' decision to cancel the 2025 contest as a positive for his program.
