Summary

Ole Miss was 10-3 last season, including its 10th all-time appearance in the Sugar Bowl.

The Rebels were undefeated at home, only lost twice in the SEC and added off-season reinforcements in the form of one of the very best NCAA transfer portal classes in the country.

But ESPN has Ole Miss going 8-4 in 2022.

To be fair, the record is probably dead-on as far preseason predictions go, but ESPN projects a 7-0 start for the Rebels. That means a limp to the finish, so how will categorize success, then? What else did ESPN get right (and wrong)?

Ben Garrett (Ole Miss Spirit, On3) and David Johnson (Inside the Rebels, 247) discuss in another crossover podcast, powered by Thomas Chandler of Capital Financial Group.
