Does anyone else sense the deja vu this week?
Ole Miss is once again gearing up to face Alabama in a game that feels like it will be a measuring stick for the whole season. I think I had the same feeling in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2021, and 2022, and probably a few other years that I’d be embarrassed to admit feeling optimistic about.
A few of those years, Ole Miss rolled up against the Crimson Tide with no losses yet on the season; in a couple of others, the matchup was the Rebs’ last gasp at winning the SEC West, or securing a “special” season.
