LISTEN: Ole-Maha. Sounds good, right? Ole Miss (the program and its fans) has earned this.

by: Ben Garrett06/13/22SpiritBen

In this crossover podcast, in association with the Ole Miss Spirit (On3) and Inside the Rebels (247), Ben Garrett eats a plate-full of crow and David Johnson celebrates, as Ole Miss has punched its ticket to Omaha and the College World Series.

The Rebels used dazzling starting pitching and a resurgent Ole Miss lineup to do it. We’re handing out helmet stickers, picking heroes of the Hattiesburg Super Regional and handicapping the Rebels’ title chances.

Tim Elko said it best: “Don’t let the Rebs get hot.”
