The celebration wasn’t just about football—the Kiffin family stole the spotlight in more ways than one.
It was a night to remember for Lane and Landry as they kicked off 2025 in style. After the game, Lane handed the trophy to Landry in a candid moment captured beautifully on camera. He later shared the photo on his X account with a simple caption:

Landry wore a red outfit paired with a denim jacket while holding the trophy and flashing a smile. The Rebels’ dominant performance not only capped off a stellar 10-3 season but also silenced any lingering doubts about Kiffin’s leadership and his team’s capabilities.

Coach Lane Kiffin guided the Rebels to their 10th win of the season on Thursday night, defeating Duke to win the Gator Bowl. This victory marks the second time Ole Miss has secured consecutive 10-win seasons since 1959-1960.
Although Kiffin expressed disappointment over Ole Miss being overlooked for this year’s College Football Playoffs, he remained gracious in his postgame comments. He shared a heartfelt moment on social media, posting a photo with his daughter, Landry Kiffin, a current Ole Miss student, and captioned it:
“Hope you are smiling and proud Dad.”
