Ole Miss fans couldn't wait to party Saturday night, but they started a little too early.
The 16th-seeded Rebels pulled off an upset over No. 3 Georgia, holding the Bulldogs to just 10 points.
The Rebels won the game from the start. They outscored the Bulldogs 28-3 after Georgia scored a touchdown on the first drive of the game.

It was not a question of if fans would flood the field, but when. And they jumped the gun.
The Bulldogs faced a fourth-and-20 from their own 20-yard line with 27 seconds left. After the pass was completed, Georgia's Arian Smith missed the first down.
The clock stopped with 16 seconds left and Ole Miss was about to run out the clock. The party started and fans poured onto the field.
However, the game was not over yet, and chaos erupted as referees, security, and even public address announcers tried to remove hundreds of fans from the field.
Order was quickly restored and fans left the field. But as soon as the final kneel was taken, fans sprinted back onto the field.
And it didn't take long for them to knock over one of the goalposts.
