Ole Miss Is In A Dream Spot After Last Night's Playoff Rankings Were Revealed

Ole Miss fans are HYPED after the 1st College Football Playoff Rankings came out last night! And how could they not be? The 8-1 Rebels are currently the #6 seed and projected to host ACC Champ Virginia in the 1st round in Oxford! 

A LOT of ball still left in the season so I am trying to not get too fired up. But a playoff home game in Oxford AND a potential Sugar Bowl Quarterfinal in New Orleans on New Year's Night?

Be still my beating heart......

Fellow Barstool Sports co-worker and UVA fan Jake Malasek was feeling it too!

Ole Miss has an extremely manageable schedule left with Citadel at home Saturday followed by a home game vs. Florida and that damn  Egg Bowl in Starkville. Florida ruined Ole Miss 2024 Playoff shot and NOTHING is ever guaranteed in the Egg Bowl especially when it is in Starkville. One step at a time but it will NEVER line up better for the Rebs than right now!

There were no surprises up top with Ohio State, Indiana, Texas A&M, Alabama & Georgia in the Top 5. The top two Big 12 schools BYU & Texas Tech battle in Lubbock this weekend in a game with huge playoff implications.

Notre Dame fans gotta be loving that #10 seed projection after starting 0-2. If the Irish win out, they are in and their only dicey game left is at Pitt on November 15th.

Virginia and Memphis got the final two spots but who the hell knows who will win the ACC or American?!?!? Both leagues are still wide open with about a thousand different scenarios.

What is assured is that both leagues will only get one bid for the conference champ.

Unnecessary Roughness went live for the revealing of the Playoff Rankings last night. Watch it here!
