1. Everything is looking up for Ole Miss
The 2014 Rebels got roasted by TCU in the Peach Bowl 42-3. That was the only blip in a terrific run, going 8-1 in the last nine bowl games and 12-1 in the last 13 going back to 1990.
This isn’t going to be the last bowl win for Ole Miss under Lane Kiffin.
With this win, the Rebels finish at a respectable 5-5, there was a win over rival Mississippi State, there’s a good nucleus of young players coming back, this is a fun and exciting team that’s going to keep wining it all over the place, and the program has the stability of Kiffin being tied into a new contract extension.

It’s supposed to start next year against Louisville, Austin Peay and Tulane with a date against Liberty and Hugh Freeze later on.
Those should be four wins for a program that’s about to get a whole lot stronger, and it’s helped further with no Florida or Georgia on the slate.
That’s what a bowl win can do. It was the first since 2015, and now it’s about to be a fun offseason.
