National champions.

Ole Miss sits alone atop college baseball following a two-game sweep of Oklahoma in the championship round of the College World Series.

Can you believe it?

Ben Garrett (Ole Miss, On3) and David Johnson (Inside the Rebels, 247) can’t either. But they try in a special crossover podcast they’ve been waiting to do forever.
