‘Ole Miss’ is affectionate and traditional slang for ‘Old Mississippi’ and is used to refer to the University of Mississippi. The university is represented by the Ole Miss Rebels in the I-A Division of the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision. The team is currently under the Southeastern Conference.
The team was born in 1893 with the encouragement of Dr. A. L. Bondurant who was himself selected by the student team as their first coach. The very first game played by the team in its inaugural season was against Southwest Baptist University, presently Union University, of Jackson City. The game, played on November of 1893 was a route 54-0 in favor of Mississippi. Ole Miss won three more games of the total of five that they played then.
In 1897, owing to an epidemic of yellow fever, football was suspended. Again, before the outbreak of the Second World War, the game was banned making it a total of 2 years in all that the team was unable to play.
The annual selection of the national football champion is not one of the duties of the NCAA. However, various polling organizations and publications proclaim their own versions of who is the year’s top-rated team through polls. In 1955, 1959, 1960 and 1962, the Rebels came out in some minor polls as the National Champion. However, major polls like Associated Press and United Press had other ideas. They placed Ole Miss only in either second or third place. The team finally won that coveted honor in 2003 by vote.
The team is remembered for having two ‘firsts.’ They were the first team to travel by plane to the site of the competition. This happened in 1937 when the team flew from Memphis, Tennessee to Philadelphia. Ole Miss Rebels was also the first team whose game was aired on radio. This was for their 1948 match with Memphis.
The team hired its 36th coach in 2007. The person was Houston Nutt. Several weeks before he was hired he had coached the Arkansas Razorbacks when they defeated the Rebels. In his first season, Nutt secured a 9-4 win for the Rebels. This happened during the 2009 Cotton Bowl classic. The Rebels routed the Florida Gators, the LSU Tigers and the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Later, the Gators were proclaimed the BSC National Champions.
The team engages in annual rivalry matches with old rivals. The Egg Bowl is a rivalry match between the Rebels and Mississippi State University. In these series, The Rebels lead with 60 wins as against State U’s 40 wins. The Magnolia Bowl is another such game, this time between the Rebels and Louisiana State University. LSU leads in this one with 55-39-4.
The Vanderbilt University Commodores also competes annually with the Rebels. This rivalry series dates back to when both co-founded the Southeastern Conference. The Rebels are ahead in this series with 42-13-2
Among all football programs the Ole Miss Rebels is ranked third. It bagged 21 wins in 33 Bowl events. The College Football Hall of Fame includes ten of their members. The Pro Football Hall of Fame claims 2 players, the Helms Athletic Foundation has included 3 and the National Quarterback Club has one.
