Who has the most pressure?

Pressure. The media loves to amp it up. They want to create pressure. Afterall, The higher the pressure, the more clicks, views and general attention is garnered.
This game is unquestionably one of the most high pressure games ever for college football. Lots of drama.
Kiffin’s was asked about who has the most pressure. He said Ole Miss. not sure I agree but I understand his point.
Talking heads like Jim Rome and Finebaum say it’s on LSU and Kiffin.
I think pressure is in the eye of the beholder. It’s often a perception thing and that’s what Kiffin is trying to point out.
Really though, pressure is illusory. Is it even real?
Imo, insofar as it exists is relative to the perception of preasure. The pressure is relative to the way a person handles it. Some feel the pressure and cave and some feel the pressure and excel.
Championship players and coaches welcome the pressure. They crave it because it brings out their best. Losers shy away from pressure. They don’t have the confidence in themselves to meet the expectation.
So for me, this is a game to expose who is and isn’t up to the pressure level. Which coach can manage the players ability to handle this pressure? Which QB can rise to that level and execute?

Ole miss. And it isn’t just about this game. They’re trying to sustain what they did last season.

I agree with Lane. Golding has to be feeling the pressure more.
He has to win this game. His fanbase wants to beat Lane more than they've ever wanted to win a game. They are in their home stadium. They have the best QB, RB, WR tandem that Golding will ever have at Ole Miss. If he can't beat Lane this weekend, then he'll never beat him, and if he never beats him then he'll be shown the door in a few years.

OM can not afford to lose to LSU at home to their old coach. Down the road that spins "tDecline is real' narritive and it could affect them in recruiting. OM has got to win this game to keep the media momentum going.
If LSU loses they are more able to spin the "Under Construction" narritive and keep on rolling.

It is LSU. CLK coming back to OM with all the hype and expectations. OM is in their comfort zone with home field and the fans. Definitely LSU. The Tigers will respond well with the odds against them.

A case can certainly be made that Ole Miss has to live up to expectations from last season and Golding has to show that he can win on this stage, in front of a home crowd.
Another case can be made that Kiffin is the one who left the ole miss because he could do better at LSU…. So that brings a certain degree of “pressure”. If he doesn’t win vs ole miss, it could show that he couldn’t do better at LSU.

Ole Miss without a doubt.
They are coming in with a playoff team (that Lane built) with 2 Heisman candidates playing at home vs. Lane and a rebuilt roster with 60 new players on the road in game 3 and now (best case scenario) a banged-up QB.
Media wants something that just isn't there.
LSU is building for a successful future. It's now or never for Ole Miss.

Pressure is absolutely on Ole Miss. they won 13 games last year, we won 7. This is their “last dance” moment before wading into the darkness of Golding recruiting/portaling for a QB. He might still be good after Trinidad leaves, but no ole Miss fan can say they have full confidence he can keep it rolling.
Lane knows this will probably be his worst team during his tenure due to having to mesh all new pieces together from scratch. If Ole Miss is going to get him, better do it now because I don’t see it happening again.

Well if Leavitt doesn't play then all the pressure is on Ole Miss (he's definitely playing)

The true knowledgeable SEC football fan knows how hard it is to win on the road against a good team. Ole Miss is a good team. If we lose a close game yes I will be disappointed but I also understand this is about the long game and we come back home and take care of TAM then this game will go by the wayside as we move on to a playoff knowing we will have OM at home next year.. But if they lose they will be freaking out because they will know this was their one shot to beat Kiffen with the best QB in the country and he and Lacy will be gone after this year and they will become LSU's bitch again. So yeah the long term pressure is definitely on Ole Miss. And no the LSU fans will not turn on Kiffen if we lose a competitive game. They will be pissed but that will pass if they take care of TAM at home..
