Ole Miss TV Networks

I know everyone bitches about the time slots. I am guilty of this also, but of our 8 SEC games, we have been on ABC 5 times and ESPN Regular 3 times. Also with 3 ABC games in a row to close out the season. We have not played one league game on SEC Network.

That is pretty good considering we are not the largest audience draw for the league.

Ole Miss vs Tennessee resume

Both beat OU
Both teams have a bad loss - AR and UK. You could argue that the UK loss was worse since it was at home and UK is worse than AR.
OM beat AR and UT beat UK
Both will beat UF of OM wins next week
Both big wins came at home - AL and UGA
Other loss was on the road for both - LSU and GA
Both will beat MSU. Both at home.
Ole Miss has 2 SEC ranked wins vs only one for UT. One of OM on the road. UT was as home.
Wake Forest beat NC State. Those were the best non conference wins for each team. I dont think this will matter to the committee but since it was on their resume I included it.

Once I broke down their schedules, I give the edge to Ole Miss. But who knows what the committee will do.

  • Poll
Guaranteed first road road game or roll the dice and get a bye winning the SEC Championship?

Guarantee playoff or SEC Championship shot?

  • First Round Playoff on the Road

  • Give me the title shot

Poll time. Football gods offer a deal: Ole Miss makes the playoff but must play on the road or Ole Miss makes the SEC Championship. If they win, automatic bye but lose and Ole Miss misses the playoffs.

What say you Rebel Grove?

Here's where Ole Miss football

Ole Miss beat Oklahoma 26-14 on Saturday at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. Ole Miss got off to a slow start but buckled down and excelled in the second half in a wild game that featured a medical emergency, a celebrity and a squirrel that got loose.

Projecting Tuesday’s ranking

I put this in another thread but think it deserves a separate discussion.

This would be my projection for the ranking and then the field this week:

1. Oregon
2. Ohio State
3. Texas
4. Penn State
5. Indiana
6. Notre Dame
7. Alabama
8. Ole Miss
9. Georgia
10. Miami
11. Tennessee
12. SMU
13. Boise State
14. Texas A&M
15. Colorado

Then the playoff goes this way:

1 Oregon vs 8 Notre Dame/9 Alabama

4 Boise State vs 5 Ohio State/12 Colorado

3 Miami vs 6 Penn State/11 Georgia

2 Texas vs 7 Indiana/10 Ole Miss

First two out - Tennessee, SMU

I wouldn’t discount Big 10 and SEC championship losers potentially falling behind us in seeding depending on the scenario, so there are still plenty of chances to shift up some seed lines.
