For the second time ever, ESPN College GameDay arrived on campus in Oxford for an SEC West knockout game against the Ole Miss Rebels and Texas A&M Aggies. Excitement built throughout the week across campus, culminating in a full day of festivities and a huge Rebel victory.
Donned in hard hats courtesy of The Home Depot, Ole Miss students lined the orange barricades behind the set, but it didn’t come easy. Despite Oxford temperatures dipping below freezing overnight, eager students still came out in bulk, camping overnight in the Grove just to get one of the best spots in the house.
