Gunner Stockton, No. 3 Georgia return to playoff in rematch with No. 6 Ole Miss

Ole Miss did just fine in its first rematch of a regular-season game in the College Football Playoff.

But the No. 6 Rebels find themselves in a much different situation in their CFP quarterfinal matchup with No. 3 Georgia in the Sugar Bowl on Thursday night in New Orleans.

Ole Miss (12-1), which defeated Tulane 45-10 on Sept. 20, rolled past the No. 11 Green Wave 41-10 in a first-round game Dec. 20 in Oxford, Miss. But this time the Rebels are hoping the outcome changes as they have a second meeting with the Bulldogs (12-1).
