Standard-cover running back Kewan Lacy represents Ole Miss. He appears on the College Football 27 standard edition cover with Oregon quarterback Dante Moore and Miami wide receiver Malachi Toney.
Lacy’s cover selection highlights Ole Miss as one of the programs represented by the game’s main promotional trio. As a running back, he gives the artwork a different positional identity from Moore and Toney, creating a quarterback-running back-wide receiver lineup that mirrors the structure of a college offense.
The most likely confusion comes from the game’s Deluxe cover, which expands the group beyond the three standard-cover athletes. Indiana coach Curt Cignetti, Texas linebacker Colin Simmons, Notre Dame cornerback Leonard Moore and USC quarterback Jayden Maiava are among the additional figures associated with that edition. Those schools are not Lacy’s team.
The answer is specifically Ole Miss, the University of Mississippi’s athletic program. “Mississippi” and “Ole Miss” are sometimes used interchangeably in casual discussion, but Ole Miss is the canonical team name accepted for this quiz question.
