Yesterday was Huge, Rebels! But LSU is surging back!

October 10, 2024

Beat LSU Week continues! On Wednesday, nearly 100 of you showed up to give and help Ole Miss beat LSU in our fundraising challenge. 

Last night, we went to bed with a comfortable lead in the competition. It felt like going up by 30 at halftime. But today, LSU came surging back. 

So many of you have given generously to the Ole Miss Fund during Beat Week, and we consider that a huge win, no matter the outcome. However, with just a little extra effort, we can beat LSU twice this week.

If you've already given, please tell your family, friends, and social networks about Beat Week. Send them the link to https://ignite.olemiss.edu/beatweek and ask them to make a gift. You can keep up with the competition at https://www.magnoliabeatweek.com/. When you see LSU making another comeback, let's work together to shut them down at the goal line and recover the ball!

Every gift of $5 or more pushes us to victory! Let's win Beat Week!

So spread the word, tell your friends, family and social media networks to visit https://ignite.olemiss.edu/beatweek and make a gift now!
