Ole Miss football has taken its Heisman Trophy campaign for quarterback Trinidad Chambliss and running back Kewan Lacy to New York City.
Ole Miss posted a photo on X at 12:35 a.m. on Aug. 24 that showed its two star players on a billboard in Times Square.
It's part of a rollout for Ole Miss' preseason Heisman Trophy campaign for Chambliss and Lacy. Ole Miss began it in July by passing out yard signs, bumper stickers and buttons.

— Ole Miss Football (@OleMissFB) August 24, 2026Chambliss is one of the favorites in the Heisman Trophy race for 2026. He enters with the No. 3 odds (+900) in the nation behind Texas quarterback Arch Manning and Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr, who are co-favorites (+750), per Bet MGM.
Lacy's odds are +12500.
Chambliss is returning after breaking out in 2025 as a transfer from Division II Ferris State. He became the starting quarterback in Week 3 after an injury to Austin Simmons. Chambliss led Ole Miss to its first two College Football Playoff wins and passed for 3,937 yards with 30 total touchdowns for the season.
Lacy had 104 career rushing yards before coming to Ole Miss, then broke program single-season records with 1,567 rushing yards and 24 rushing touchdowns in 2025.
The Rebels open the season against Louisville on Sept. 6 (6:30 p.m. CT, ABC) at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee.
