Ladies and Gentleman, Ole Miss baseball is officially back. Yes, the grass is green, and the lines are perfectly drawn at Swayze Field.
But more than that, the soundwaves that will reverberate against the students, coolers, and BBQ grills in the outfield when each Rebel strides to the plate have finally been finalized.
The Rebels officially announced the walkup songs for this season ahead of the season opener against Charleston Southern this weekend.
Time to plug in the aux.
