When quarterback Chad Kelly takes the field for the Ole Miss Rebels (3), all eyes will be on his top wideout and the Florida Gators (25) cornerback lining up across from him.
Though Kelly may be a fascinating success story in his own right, the players on the field, the coaches on the sidelines, and the fans at home will be watching Laquon Treadwell matchup with Vernon Hargreaves III.
"That should be a fun matchup," ESPN quoted Florida head football coach Jim McElwain telling reporters in his weekly press conference.

Treadwell and Hargreaves last played against one another in the Under Armour All-America game about three years ago, which they remembered as an even matchup. Following that game, both players were among the most highly recruited prospects in the nation.
"He has great footwork - he's a great technician," Treadwell said of Hargreaves at a recent press conference. "He knows what he wants to do and he's skilled and comfortable. He's got an edge to him and he's got a swagger."
Both Florida and Ole Miss are looking to establish themselves in the SEC East and West, their respective divisions, and matchups between Georgia and Alabama, and Texas A&M and Mississippi State could shakeup the conference further.
"Everyone knows about their back end," Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze told reporters, according to ESPN. "They are definitely one of the best defenses in the country and they are going to test us for sure."
