Ole Miss Sports Information released the 2020 football schedule Wednesday afternoon and boy, oh boy, it is a doozy in the early-goings. Matt Luke’s squad will open things up in Houston once again, this time taking on the Baylor Bears. Then, after a week two non-conference game, the most brutal of three-week stretches hits us right in the fucking face.
At first glance, it appears that from mid-October on, the schedule is fairly manageable, but it’s hard to truly get a feel and/or a positive start out the gate with a best-case 2-3 staring you right in the face.

Other notable games that jump out to me are Florida at home (WHAT UP REX), Georgia Southern squeezed in between Arkansas and Mississippi State, and Middle Tennessee in Oxford (THE KERMIT DAVIS BOWL).
After the schedule was released, we took to Twitter to ask y’all what you thought and our loyal followers on our newly-reactivated account did not disappoint.

Sure September is going to get weird. I mean, what is up with playing LSU that early, right? Nevertheless, the good news is once August 31st is here, we will be another year from another great and fun and awesome and enjoyable season with our Ole Miss football Rebels!
It’s guaranteed now, they scheduled the games. So we’re good.
