Ghost, probably still in a drunken stupor from the weekend, asked me to do the Rebel Roundup today because he's flying home or something. I don't really know. I wasn't paying attention.
Chris Lowe's SEC Bowl Predictions | ESPN
Sure, Chris Lowe has probably done, you know, research and stuff. Maybe he even talked to some bowl reps about it. I'm still holding out for the Cotton Bowl. I know that back to back appearances are usually not desirable to fan bases, but the Cotton Bowl is six hours away and features a brand new stadium. Seriously, I think they have heated seats or something.
Henry Provides Rebels 'Perfect' Boost | EotC David Brandt
Yeah. Terrance Henry came up pretty strong against TAMCC. Let's see if that translates to any significant increase in playing time down the stretch. His stats look good, but will this be another case of one good game not earning much from Kennedy? Last season against New Orleans Kevin Cantinol played for 23 minutes, going 4-4 from the field, pulling down four boards, and registering one block. Then he did nothing for the rest of the season, even though the Rebels were down three scholarship players. Terrance Henry is certainly more talented than Cantinol and will see significantly more time than KC, but I don't think we should make too much of the fact that he's shooting 100% from the field on the season.
Lady Roundball Rebels are Tournament Champions | OleMissSports.com
If the Lady Rebs stand a chance of making noise this season, Bianca Thomas will have to continue to produce. Thomas scored 30 points in the championship game against FAU and is the SEC points leader so far this season. This win pushes the Rebels to 5-1 on the year. Keep it up Lady Rebs.

Maybe I'm grasping at straws but this seems to sum up Ole Miss football, this season in particular
The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong in the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.
- Ernest Hemingway
Broken but not dead....
Maybe we will heal up and kick some butt in our bowl game!

Geez, guys...
… I really needed y’all to beat Miss St. I wanted to go to the Cotton Bowl.

Let me get this straight
You DON’T want to go to sunny Orlando, Florida with a side of “The Happiest Place On Earth?”
Unless, you know, “JerryWorld” comes complete with Magic Castle and Space Mountain.

WDW
I’ll be in DisneyWorld from the 12-19th anway. I can’t justify going back so soon. I live in Dallas and I will have already blown my time off. The Cotton Bowl just sort of works for me this year. Personal thing.

Tampa?
Oh pleeeeeeeeease let it be so…
Busch Gardens and a chance to visit a USF friend? I’ll take it over a bazillion inch HDTV any day.
From Clay Travis, who got a Tweet from Ivan Maisel who heard it straight from Houston…we’re going back to Dallas.

Rumor has it...
that Greg Hardy was cleared to play the Egg Bowl by the docs, but the Coaches wouldn’t let him play. Maybe we’ll see him reappear in the bowl game.
BREAKING NEWS
Bradley Sowell has updated his Facebook status today:
Bradley Sowell: COTTON BOWL! new dallas stadium, legit
One of his friends asked if this was 100% confirmed. He replied “yup”.
DAMN IT TO HELL!!! I WAS going to say something nice about LSU... but my clock ran out.

on Twitter: Houston Nutt says Ole Miss returning to Cotton Bowl. first back-to-back Jan. bowls in 40 years.

Not surprised
I don’t know why everyone thought we wouldn’t go to the same bowl twice in a row…we went to Independence twice in a row (‘98-’99) and Sugar (‘60-’61, ‘63-’64). Apparently Ole Miss brings good crowds to Dallas, and in the end the picks are based on both the records and the potential for tourist dollars.

Looks like
Ole Miss vs Nebraska in the Cotton. Cotton takes the #2 Big 12 team, which is Nebraska. Of course anything could happen I guess.

Of course
if Nebraska beats Texas this weekend (anyone wanna take that bet?), then it will be Ole Miss vs. Texas in the Cotton – which would setup a nice revenge game for either team when they meet in Oxford in 3 years.

The #2 means the Cotton gets second pick of Big 12 teams,
first pick after the BCS bowls do their thing; it has nothing to do with rankings or conference standings. They can pick any Big 12 team they want that hasn’t been selected to a BCS bowl
Plus under this scenario (Neb over UT), no BCS bowl would allow UT to escape their grasp.

In fact.
I am cheering for Nebraska because what would happen is Boise State would most likely be screwed out of the BCS. Not only would the BCS not want Texas to “escape their grasp” but also they are not allowed to do so.
However
OK State might be the team the Cotton Bowl takes as the #2 team. Technically they would have a better record than Nebraska, and while we are talking about story lines, it would be a rematch of 2003.
hopefully we will be picked to lose....
since that is the only way we will win. that’s ole miss football, only good when we are underated. if we are picked to win we will blow it.
that being said, i did the whole cotton bowl thing last year, and as fun as it was, i won’t be returning again. i would just rather us go somewhere different.
Damn it....
I wasn’t finished.
Add: That being said, I will be on my honeymoon elsewhere and I didn’t make it last year either so who am I to call you out.
We were picked to beat
Memphis, SELA, Vanderbilt, UAB, Arkansas, Northern Arizona, Tennessee, and LSU

I live in Dallas
Y’all just come stay with me. I’m sure my wife and 2-year-old won’t mind.
Don't try and lay no boogie woogie on the king of rock 'n roll.
It's a Legit Bowl
Telling people “We’re in the Cotton Bowl” at least, you know, sounds like an actual, New Years Day Bowl Game, as opposed to “We’re in the Corporate Sponsor Bowl!”
On the other hand, I will be in Yankeeland visiting family and friends over the holiday, and was hoping for the chance to mercilessly harass Big TenLeven fans during the Outback Bowl.
Rematch: Ole Miss vs. Oklahoma State
in the Cotton Bowl.
How ironic is it that the 2 teams picked preseason to be in the top 5 and in the National Championship hunt, will play each other.. in the Cotton Bowl.. again.

Just to add insult to injury
per the Tupelo Daily Journal, Anthony Dixon won the Conerly tonight. But that’s okay ’cause THE SAINTS WON! (sorry Ben Jarvis Green-Ellis)

Well...
I didn’t make it to the Cotton Bowl last year and since I hate the Cowboys (as in Dallas – it will be hard for me to stir up much hate for OSU hate week as they’re my second favorite team) it may be my only opportunity to visit JerryWorld. Besides, Dallas is only 2 1/2 hours away from me so I’m close. Don’t get me wrong, I’d rather the guys get to play somewhere different but it works for me.
