The Rebels take on Florida at 2:25 this afternoon after earning a double-bye in the tournament. If you’re like most Ole Miss fans, right around now is when you’ve decided to tune in. You feel a little guilty for suddenly jumping on the bandwagon, having not supported the team. Don’t worry. Don’t worry. I’ve got you covered.
Big picture here: two years ago, the team went 0-16 in conference play. Fast forward two seasons, and they’re 22-7 (10-6) and bound for the NCAA tournament no matter what happens this weekend. It’s a remarkable turnaround, and one that is completely unprecedented.
