Lane Kiffin and the No. 7 Ole Miss Rebels are 10-1 this season and are primed for a spot in the College Football Playoff. Meanwhile, Kiffin has been at the center of coaching rumors over the last several weeks.

The Ole Miss Rebels could fire head coach Lane Kiffin amid his unwillingness to commit before the College Football Playoff.

No. 5 Ole Miss (10-1, 6-1 SEC) further cemented the program's College Football Playoff chances in Week 12 after taking down the Florida Gators 34-24 at Vaught-H

One major college football program is reportedly making a strong push to land Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin.

LSU, ranked ninth in the preseason AP Poll, is a disappointing 6-4 (3-4 SEC) and fired Brian Kelly last month. Florida, ranked 15th in the preseason AP Poll, has cratered to 3-7 (2-5 SEC) and fired Billy Napier last month, one week before LSU fired Kelly.

Ole Miss has given Lane Kiffin an ultimatum to decide his future before the Nov. 28 Egg Bowl against Mississippi State, a person briefed on the discussions told The Athletic. Kiffin, whose 10-1 team is off this week, is considered a candidate for open jobs at both Florida and LSU.

Ole Miss football avoided a painful upset loss to Florida, as did Texas A&M and Georgia but another SEC team did not to the Rebels' benefit.
