Former Ole Miss Spirit contributor Sudu Upadhyay didn’t give Ole Miss much of a chance going into Georgia this time last year.  He’s changed his tune for this week’s matchup in Oxford. “Last year I didn’t want to come on the podcast because I thought (Ole Miss) people were going to hate me,” Upadhyay said. “Ole Miss could not match up with them. “This year? There’s hope. It’s still the No. 2 team...

Ole Miss baseball is nearing the end of its fall intrasquad season. One undeniable truth has emerged over weeks and weeks of practices. Absolutely nothing is settled.  It’s by design, of course.

The Rebel coaching staff — which now includes a full-time pitching coach for the first time — wants to leave...

No. 19 Ole Miss is headed to Arkansas this week — an historically difficult place to play for the Rebels. But they got back on track with a two-score win over Oklahoma and are favored over the rival Razorbacks.  So, why the lowered expectations from Lane Kiffin this week? Kiffin said years ago he came to Ole Miss to be great, not good. Well, 6-2 (2-2 SEC) is, objectively, only good, and the Rebels...
