The indulgence of the holiday season begins its yearly hard launch with Thanksgiving, a time for aggressive caloric intake through an assortment of meats and dishes that span the culinary spectrum. And who could indulge more at a meal than the men who are head football coaches in the Southeastern Conference. These men sit atop […]
You know how I know this Egg Bowl is going to be excruciating? Its from the number of Miss. St. fans I have talked to in the last week saying what a blowout this game will be. The Bulldogs (5-6, 1-6 SEC) are one win away from a bowl game berth, and the Rebels (10-1, […]
The last time Ole Miss played an Egg Bowl with the possibility of its head coach leaving for another school was in 1998 when a current United States senator from Alabama (who lives in Florida) led the Rebels to doom on his way to Auburn. The Tommy Tuberville era at Ole Miss ended with a […]
Most Rebel fans likely had never heard the name Bennett Stirtz before Tuesday night when the Rebels and Hawkeyes tipped off in the Acrisure Classic tournament. All of that quickly changed as the senior Iowa (6-0) guard went off for 29 points including six of eight from beyond the arc to lead the Hawkeyes to […]
Ole Miss had a bye week and watched half the football programs win and half the teams lose, but it dropped a spot in the latest College Football Playoff rankings. The Rebels (10-1, 6-1 SEC) fell from No. 6 to No. 7 with Oregon jumping over Ole Miss after a win against top 25 USC. […]
Your 5-0 Ole Miss men’s basketball team is headed to Palm Springs, California to take on the 5-0 Iowa Hawkeyes in the 2025 Acrisure Series. Iowa is led by first year head coach Ben McCollum, the guy on Ole Miss’ radar during our last hiring cycle. McCollum spent a season at Drake, winning a first […]
Another week in the NFL has come and gone and it was the second week without Jaxson Dart for the New York Giants due to a concussion. I must say, Jameis Winston is fun as hell and Daboll should’ve been fired for ever playing Russell Wilson over him. Even though Dart was sidelined, there were […]
Oddsmakers are fairly confident No. 6 Ole Miss can get through the Egg Bowl with a victory and cap off an 11-1 record to essentially clinch a College Football Playoff berth. Fanduel Sportsbook opened with the Rebels (10-1, 5-1 SEC) as a -7.5 favorite over Miss. St. (5-6, 1-6 SEC). On Sunday afternoon, 69 (nice) […]
The Lane Kiffin drama seems to at least now have a light at the end of the tunnel. Ole Miss athletic director Keith Carter released a statement on Friday giving the news an announcement would be made the day after the Egg Bowl on Kiffin’s future. “Despite the outside noise, Coach Kiffin is focused on […]
One look at this game from anyone outside the Magnolia State, and its ho-hum this looks like a lopsided match-up between a 10-win team and a five win team but maybe home field advantage makes it a close one. But anyone with the 1,000 mile stare of an Ole Miss fan who has seen too […]
Your Ole Miss Rebels are enjoying the fruits of their labor with a bye this Saturday as they rest up and prepare for the Egg Bowl on Black Friday. One would think that a 10-1 record and a bye week would lead to a stress free fandom, but thanks to the current coaching drama, we […]
To paraphrase a moment involving a band here to have a bad time, if you’re looking for the latest news in the Lane Kiffin Figures Out His Life saga, this is the wrong website today. We’re here to offer zero speculation and note the wealth of no new information. On Wednesday during the SEC weekly […]

Ole Miss will look to improve to 5-0 for the season when Austin Peay visits the SJB Pavilion on Tuesday night with a 7 p.m. tipoff. The Rebels (4-0) are coming off the nostalgic win in the final game at the Tad Pad on Friday over Cal State Bakersfield. The old arena is set for […]
Man, were the cardiac Rebs back on Saturday night. Nine of the largest crowds in school history have come in the last two seasons and Saturday against the Gators was the largest. It was amped all the way up and so was my heart rate. A win is a win is a win. Last year, […]
The conversations about Ole Miss and Lane Kiffin seem to be taking on a different tone with some fans, and with a possible historic run and College Football Playoff implications looming, the pressure could be mounting on the sixth year head coach. It’s the worst kept secret in college football the Florida Gators want Kiffin […]
Ole Miss used a dominant second half to put away an upset-minded Florida squad, 34-24, to improve to 10-1 for the season. Rebels running back Kewan Lacy scored three touchdowns to break the single season rushing touchdown record. The sophomore from Dallas, Tex. has 19 touchdowns for the year, and he posted 224 yards rushing […]
This game has all the makings of a prize fight, but with only one real heavyweight contender entering the ring. The No. 6 Ole Miss Rebels (9-1, 5-1 SEC) host Florida (3-6, 2-4 SEC) at 6 p.m. CT on ESPN in Oxford. The line for the game has swung from the Rebels -15.5 to now […]
The C.M. Tad Smith Coliseum will host its final game on Friday night when Ole Miss and Cal State Bakersfield tips off at 6:30 p.m. CT. The Tad Pad has been the home to 702 games for basketball, and now it is time to say goodbye to the venerable old spaceship looking arena. The “Throwback […]
This week’s post is an abbreviated version of the exercise in breaking down our various levels of knowledge or lack thereof. The word count reduction, which takes value from your subscription, is thanks to yours truly traveling and [gestures at everything happening]. Saturday night is significant for a little ol’ something called the college football […]
So apparently you can force results on your CFB26 schedule, so I started a new season, forced the Rebs to a 9-1 record which led to Ole Miss being ranked #3 in the CFP poll heading into this matchup. Even the EA Sports CFP poll is flawed as it had Ole Miss ranked one spot […]
Thanks to a Virginia loss, Ole Miss now has a new projected opponent in the College Football Playoff after rankings were released Tuesday. The Rebels (9-1, 5-1 SEC) dropped one spot in the CFP rankings to No. 7 overall and projected to play No. 10 Texas in Oxford in the first round of the playoffs. […]
Yep. You read that right. It seems like a real ugly situation brewing in New York as the GM got rid of Brian Daboll, the man who went all in on former Rebel Jaxson Dart. The thing is, Daboll was right. So far, Dart has surpassed expectations, putting up better numbers than Jayden Daniels in […]
The guys and gal here at Red Cup haven’t written about basketball too much, but all that is about to change as the men’s basketball season hits a different gear on Tuesday against local rival Memphis Tigers. Ole Miss (2-0) head coach Chris Beard has gone in and completely revamped his roster from last season’s […]
You just knew when you saw Ole Miss favored by 50+ points that there was such a slim chance they would cover that. First two weeks of the season when you are trying to figure things out? Hell yeah. But 10th game of the season, relatively healthy with the College Football Playoff firmly in sight? […]
