Ole Miss fans went wild for a squirrel interrupting play with a run for the end zone

During Saturday’s Oklahoma-Ole Miss game, a special furry guest stole the show.

A squirrel ran onto the field in Oxford during the game’s first quarter and briefly stopped play. As the crowd started to catch on to what was going on, cheers erupted for the squirrel as it darted toward the end zone.

We’re not sure where this squirrel went, probably to a tree near The Grove, but the stat keepers better record a touchdown for this squirrel in the box score. This was as clean a touchdown as you’ll see in football this fall.

The 2025 NFL Draft class might have some competition.
