The No. 9 Ole Miss Rebels took care of business Saturday at home against the unranked Auburn Tigers at home, 48-34. The best hit of the game, however, didn’t happen during live play. It featured a security team demolishing a streaker.
Ole Miss led by the game’s final score, 48-34, in the final minutes when a lightning strike delayed the contest. Shortly thereafter officials announced the 30-minute delay, a streaker made his way onto the field at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. The streaker jaunted for a somewhat impressive 50-yard run before being gang-tackled by Mississippi State Highway Patrolmen in the end zone.

The Ole Miss/Auburn game is always weird, and we now can add a streaker and lightning delay to the long list of things.
