Selection Sunday is a good day for any fan of the Ole Miss Rebels as the first ever 11-win regular season squad is now playing in the College Football Playoff as a No. 6 seed.
The Rebels (11-1, 7-1 SEC)
have made its first CFP in the 12-year history of the playoff, and Oxford will be an unbelievable atmosphere for a playoff home game. Head coach Pete Golding and his staff will now have less than two weeks to game plan for what is clearly the biggest game in program history.
In the first round, the Rebels will play No. 11 Tulane, the American Conference champions, in a rematch from a game earlier this year. If Ole Miss wins, it would move on to play Georgia for a second time this year. A clear case of first world problems as it would have been fun to see Ole Miss play teams it has not played already, but THE REBS ARE IN LFG.
