Yeah, you'll never feel at home in a house without wheels again. :p

Great pics! Like I said there are many similarities.

The southern plantation look. Here are some links to pics...I won't post them because I know they can take a while to come up if you have a slow connection like me...so you can look at them if you want.

That may be true. However...

"The [UK] libraries' book endowment ranks first among public institutions of higher education and was second only to that of Harvard's among all college and university libraries." :cool:

http://www.uky.edu/Libraries/Special...io/WethBio.htm

There isn't a school out there that's cool enough to be a part of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" like Ole Miss ;)

Up in the North we have powerful rivalries and alma mater love, too...

Auburn's library may follow right after Yale's (I don't know), but Harvard's is number one. It is the largest university library system in the world and the second largest library system of any kind, second only to the Library of Congress. It currently holds over 14 million bound volumes.

YES! LIBRARIES ROCK!!!

This is that I call a LIBRARY:

Wait, I thought that picture was from Athens!

Sorry, I don't have any love for UGA!

http://www.ecampustours.com/VirtualT...01009&ItemID=3

I stand corrected. Auburn's is second only to Harvard.

No she was right looks like Auburn to me. ;) :p

Hee hee. I don't think Harvard is going to compete with any SEC schools in the areas discussed on this thread (Greek system, tailgating, Old South architecture, loud fans, March Madness dynasties), but I love it with a loyalty that'd make Ole Miss proud, and I will never miss an opportunity to leap to its defense, especially where Yale is concerned. :D

"Fair Harvard, we join in thy jubilee throng..."

Ahem. Back to your regularly scheduled thread.

I picked Harvard and Yale for the final game of the NCAA this year with Harvard taking it all.

Go Ole Miss Rebels! GO SEC!

Reasons why Ole Miss rocks:

-The University's endowment reached $346.4 million in 2002, up 8% from the last year, ranking UM 119 among 3200 colleges and universities nationwide. UM Ranks 27th in the nation among public universities for endowment per student, and in the top 20 for increase in endowment from 2001-2002.

-Phi Beta Kappa--the nation's oldest and most prestigious honor society--awarded Ole Mis sa chapter, the first public university in Mississippi.

-Ole Miss produced its 24th Rhodes Scholar in 1998. Since then, UM has produced 4 Truman Scholars (the newest this month, Ole Miss Truman Scholar ), five Goldwater Scholars, and a Marshall Scholar. Its 400 Honors College Students have an average ACT score of 30 and SAT of 1350.

-The National Center for Physical Acoustics is developing an acoustical system for detecting land mines. The system was used to ensure the safety of emergency workers during the World Trade Center cleanup after 9/11.

-The Center for Geospatial Workforce Development, funded by NASA at 15 million over five years, is developing a comprehensive curriculum in remote sensing technology that will be offered through other universities worldwide via the Internet.

-The Center for Justice and the Rule of Law at UM is providing training on investigating and prosecuting cybercrime to personnel in the offices of the attorneys general nationwide. (They just met recently to learn some new stuff!!! I met the rep from Hawaii!!) The center works with governmental and other agencies to develop strategies to combat crime.

-Ole Miss physicists are helping to creat a five-story particle detector for the world's most powerful atom smashed being built in Switzerland.

-The Pharmacy School ranks 20th in the nation amont schools of pharmacy for funding from the prestigious National Institutes of Health and provides continuing professional education to more than one-third of the nation's pharmacists.

-The FDA chose the National Center for Natural Products Research to help develop standards to ensure the safety and effectiveness of dietary supplements.

-More than 80,000 Mississippi youngsters are cared for and treated annually at the Medical Center's Blair E. Batson Hospital for Children.

-The National Libray of the Accountancy Profession at UM is used daily to answer questions from scholars around the globe. Among the 2 million collection is a book printed in 1494 on a Gutenberg press and authored by Lucca Pacioli, regarded as the father of modern accounting.

-The UM Medical Center is the site of the Jackson Heart Study, the world's largest study ever undertaken of heart disease risk factors in the African Americans.

-The National Remote Sensing and Space Law at UM undergrids the statewide initiative to create high-tech businesses and jobs based on satellite technology.

-UM is the first campus to take advantage of utility deregulation and new technologies to build its own electrical generation plant, which will save some 1.5 million annually.

-About 35% of undergraduate women and 25% of undergraduate men are active in the Greek system as members of social fraternities and sororities.

And when it comes to Greeks at Ole Miss we have some older GLO chapters here!

DKE--not sure the chapter name but they were founded very early here
Tri Delta--Chi Chapter celebrating 100 years this month
Chi Omega--Tau Chapter founded in 1899
Chi Psi--Alpha Gamma Chapter founded in 1858
Beta Theta Pi--Beta Beta Chapter--founded in 1879
Delta Psi(St. Anthony Hall)--Phi Chapter--been around for a while

So all this talk about libraries - how many of your libraries have a skywalk?

Yep, I'm waiting.

OMG, I am getting a boner from all of the College Better than thou testorones!:D

From the Anti-Orange Page:

Get off that couch and experience life in Athens
By Shelly Arcand, The Red & Black, Spring 1994

Athens is unique. It's the only place I know where sofas belong in front yards, golf visors are worn at night, Waffle House has a waiting list, class notes can be bought downtown, and you can get a condom and a coke out of the same machine in your dorm.

UGA is about more than classes, it's an experience that you'll treasure your entire life. You know, I'm only beginning my third quarter at UGA and already it feels like home.

What is it about Athens that gets in your blood and intoxicates you with its sweet Southern comfort?

Maybe it's the beauty of North campus and the way it feels to sit on its grass and halfway study before class. Or it could be that we're all experiencing our first taste of freedom along with 25,000 other people our age...piling in a jeep with six of your friends and riding around town on a sunny afternoon... catching your favorite local band downtown and knowing day soon they'll be famous... hanging out on the porches of Son's and Steverino's until sundown on Friday... spending more time trying to figure out the library than you do actually researching... making a futile attempt at catching a bus at the Tate Center at noon on a rainy day... trying at all costs to avoid the dreaded 7:50... occasionally getting the professor that tries to know you instead of just a number... scanning The Red & Black to see who got a DUI, and laughing at the guy who was arrested for singing Dixie in his underwear drunk on a roof... stopping and realizing when you're out with your best friends that these are the people that will one day be in your wedding.

I never realized the truth in the t-shirt about Athens that says it'll "get in your blood and stay forever." Maybe it's the football games - finding a date, dressing up, trying to stomach a Beam and Coke at 11am after a Friday night that began at Uptown happy hour, and recognizing that same excitement in the eyes of the alumni who keep coming back year after year, joining their old friends and reliving their time here at UGA.

Our time here is short; make the most of it. Don't spend your spare time playing Sega on a couch. When your kids ask you what you got out of your college career, have a better answer than, "Well, I can play a mean game of electronic PGA Golf."

Get to know Athens, the people in it, the best restaurants, the great places to go camping, hiking, and laying out. We're only here four or five years (some people six or seven, if they know how to work their parents). Soon we'll be making roadtrips TO Athens instead of from it, joining OUR old college buddies: still dressing up for the games and still scanning the crowd for familiar faces. But you know what, by then we'll be dressing differently and the familiar faces will be scarce. We'll look over into that students section and remember when... when it was our time here and how quickly it came and went.

We'll wonder about all those people we used to know; where are they now? Are they successful? What about that person I had a crush on, is he married or bald? Yes, we'll lose touch with most people and names will be forgotten, but you'll always have your close friends from UGA. You'll write, talk on the phone, play bridge or poker on Tuesday nights and most of your conversations will begin with these two special workds which will have the power to make you laugh or cry or simply smile - "remember when."

And here's one about the glorious fall saturdays in Athens...granted, its from an alum/non-student perspective, but you get the idea;)

Seven Notes on a Trumpet
by ibdawg
It is Saturday. All week long you've waited. What started out on Monday as a tight feeling in the pit of your stomach, is now a 10,000-pound gorilla tap dancing on your spleen.

You've done your best to concentrate and do your job this week. You made an honest effort to put "all this" on the back burner and focus on "the important things", but to no avail. The images just kept coming: bright fall sunshine and crisp autumn air painting the classic city in Hellenic splendor. The aroma of a thousand tailgate feasts wafting through the air, and everywhere, everything - - Red and Black.

You've gone from sports page to magazine, to news show, to internet site, and in every conversation in every office, diner, hallway and cubicle you entered this week, you have tried to reassure yourself of the outcome of this week's contest. But in your heart of hearts you know there's only one way to settle it: 'Dawgs gotta tee it up and play.

And now it's Saturday. As you contemplate the day ahead an image of The Hedges flashes in your mind; green grass, crisp white lines, sunshine ricocheting off the instruments of the Redcoats, and 80,000 - plus fans volleying "GEORGIA - BULLDAWGS" back and forth across the stadium, rattling you all the way to the soles of you feet. You swing out of bed, heart pounding. Grab a cuppa Joe and a quick shower as you prepare for the pilgrimage to A-town. You slam in a tape of the Redcoat Band and crank up the stereo. "Hail" bounces off the walls while you don your lucky shirt (socks, hat, pants, whatever) as you perform the pre-game ritual.

The phone rings - - Yes, you're up. Yes, you have the tickets. "No, my cooler's full, we'll have to take yours, too. I'll stop and get some ice on the way." Gather up the tailgate supplies and load the car. Why does it take so damn long for everyone else to get ready? You check and recheck the supplies - - table, chairs, food. No need to check the drinks, no way those'll get left behind! Cigars? Check. Binoculars? Check. Camera? Blanket? Check. 'Dawg flags secured to the car and ready to fly - - all packed up and ready.

Finally! Time to go. You reassure yourself for the millionth time that the tickets are in your pocket and you "saddle up." Headed to The Classic City. Dawg-patch, USA. Larry and Scott and Loran on the pre-game show, telling you how good these guys are gonna be (yeah, like you need something else to worry about!). Loran threads in a history lesson, and hey - - an interview with one of the Dawgs from way back when. Always wondered what happened to him. Corporate exec in N'awlins. Who'd of ever guessed? You smile as you remember a moment of glory for him in a past game. On the radio, James Brown is hammering out, "Dooley's Junkyard Dawgs" and as your friends get in the car, you all sing along.

En route, cars pass by you by: they're singing too, and barking as they pass. It's a rolling party and the gangs all there! You sense the excitement as it grows, mile by mile. Traffic slows to a crawl somewhere near the Clarke County line. It is a long, happy, red and black serpent winding its way toward Sanford Stadium. Dawg flags and bumper stickers. "Boiled P-nuts just ahead". White shoe polish on windshields proclaiming the magnificence of the Dawg nation, and snatches of Larry pleading from the speakers of passing cars and trucks: "He's at the 40, the 35, the 30, run Lindsey, run!" And your heart races, your gut tightens - - you just can't wait to be there.

Now on final approach - - you turn down Lumpkin (Milledge, Baxter . . . ) homing in on THE tailgate spot. Other friends are already there and as you get out of the car, it hits you! Carnival atmosphere. Red. Black. "How 'bout them Dawgs!" "They Hell ain't they?" The fragrance of charcoal heating up and barbecue on the grill. Opposing fans drifting by, good natured ribbing , and "hey, y'all eat some of this, we got plenty". Introductions all around, and then serious discussion and comparison of the teams. Who's hurt? How fast is that wide receiver? That O-line looked awesome last week. Y'all gonna keep that coach around next year?"

Drinks with old friends and new ones. Stories about games gone by. "Man, they've added a lot to the campus since the last time I was here!" and "I don't think they grew 'em like that when I was in school!" Have another drink. Have some more barbecue. And another drink. Or two. And finally, pack it all up, it's time to go! Man, you really didn't need that extra barbecue, that 10,000 pound gorilla is kicking to get out right now!

You merge into the red and black sea that is moving inexorably toward Sanford, the Temple of the Dawg. The sun is as bright as you imagined it would be. Not too hot, not too cold. 'A crisp, fall day' as Larry might describe it. Red and Black everywhere. Sequined coats and polyester pants. Hats. Shorts. Boots. Faces painted with renderings of Uga and "Dawgs". "Buy a program?" "You bet." And, "Oh man, I gotta have that tee-shirt." Barking Dawgs everywhere as you're more or less towed towards the stadium by the throng of the Dawg nation.

But underneath the bridge, near the student center, the crowd stops. And there stands the band in all its splendor, Redcoats blazing like fire. Sequins from the Flag Corps' costumes glittering like diamonds. Notes and rifts fill the air as they mill around, warming up, waiting impatiently for the spectacle to begin. They pose for photos with family and friends. Kisses and hugs all around. "There's Uga!" and everyone tries to get a look and a photo. "Hey Mr. Seiler." "Hey Coach!" Kids run around at your knees; stadium urchins already beginning their collection of souvenirs from a day in Dawgpatch.

The moment freezes in your mind as you notice that somewhere close to the middle of the band, beneath the crowd assembled on the bridge, one lone trumpet swings skyward. . .

The atmosphere is instantly charged with about a gazillion volts, and the crowd waits expectantly.

You KNOW what's coming and still, you can't control your reaction. Goosebumps rise on your arms. The hair on your neck stands straight up and a lump forms in your throat. Your eyes well up. All those memories of all those years and all those Dawgs suddenly converge in your mind and your chest feels like it's gonna explode. And then come the seven notes. . .

Seven plaintive notes, rendered slowly, proudly, reverently into the heavens. "Mine eyes have seen the glory. . ."

And Dawgs all around you, and above you begin to answer back. Just one or two at first, but it continues to grow like a pack of hungry wolves, becoming louder and wilder, until the bridge itself threatens to collapse from the clamor! And then the rest of the band joins in, and suddenly the whole damn world is ablaze with the fire that burns in the breast of the Dawg Nation.

GLORY. Not "The Battle Hymn of the Republic". Not the fight song of some backwoods pretender in Alabama. GLORY, the battle hymn of the Dawg Nation!. Glory, Glory to Ol' Georgia.

The uproar grows and the crowd melds and begins to move in unison, the fans, the band, all one. . . Suddenly it's not a crowd anymore. It has become something else entirely. You can't describe it, but you know its composition. It is Theron Sapp and Mike Castronis; Buck Belue and Lewis Grizzard; Craig Hertwig and Cowboy Parish and Preston Riddlehuber. Larry, and "Loran, whatta ya got?" Ray the quarterback and Ray the coach. Squab the equipment manager and Jake Scott. Hell, it's Hershel Walker the Endzone Stalker, and Vince Dooley and Joel Eaves, with a little bit of Wally Butts and Erk Russell thrown in. It's "He's got a man open - - he's gonna throw a long bomb! and "Look at the sugar falling from the sky!" It's Robert Edwards tight-ropin' down in the corner, and he got in there! And Verron Haynes stepping down in Knoxville with the winning catch. It's every friend you ever sat with through a game on a Saturday in Athens, Georgia.

And suddenly, what moments ago was merely a crowd has transformed into an indomitable entity ; a juggernaut of energy and pride that streams into the stadium like smoke from a battery of double-barreled canon.

It's game time, and so we press - - into the Temple of the Dawg, we enter; a huge machine in Red and Black.

OH MY GAWD!! That was beautiful and I didn't even go there. I'm sending this to my niece who will be a Dawg in the Fall. :D

Uh I've been in north Mississippi, and it was super shabby. All the roads were rough as gravel, and everything was run down all to hell. Ole Miss probably does have a nice campus, but if it does, it's a diamond in the rough from what I've seen. I've only been to Huntsville in AL, it seemed fine. That's part of the reason I was kinda leaning toward Alabama. That and there's probably more to do in Tuscaloosa than in Oxford (I may be wrong, but I have a feeling I'm right).

Just out of Curiosity, do you guys even consider Florida part of the SEC? All this SEC talk, and no one is representing from the Swamp. What gives?

Also is there any stadiums down there owned by the school, or are they all state funded?

SMSUBear

Glory, Glory to Old Georgia! Love to see the Dawgs represented!!!

UGA Alum

OK, I may be a little ignorant about the whole northern thing, but I don't think all schools do this, so I'll explain part of the reason we dress up...

Every fraternity sets up a tailgate tent, with PJ, Kegs, and sometimes good ole Jack and Coke. You dress up to impress the boys.

ALSO, it's just a southern tradition. At Wofford, even when I was in high school, I dressed up to go to the games. And they are not SEC. It was probably even more of a big deal there because it's so small.

Now, with that said, many people do not dress up. Here, it's kind of just an understood thing that as long as you aren't going to the tents, you don't have to dress up. BUT, if you're going to show up at, say, Sigma Chi... you'd better have a cute little dress and sunglasses with croakies. Also, it's not quite as important with the northern fraternities. DU girls dress in jeans and little midriff bearing shirts sometimes. But you won't see that at Sigma Chi, Sigma Nu, Kappa Sigma, ATO, KA, or SAE. A big understood.

Sorry if this sounds really snobby, but it's just the way it works. If you wanna see southern tent-culture at it's finest, go to Carolina Cup on Saturday... trust me, you'll see it out in it's full glory there... hats and all!

Yes, Florida is a part of the SEC. :rolleyes:

The Southeastern Conference:

The University of Alabama Crimson Tide
The University of Arkansas Razorbacks
The Auburn University Tigers
The University of Florida Gators
The University of Georgia Bulldogs
The University of Kentucky Wildcats
The Louisiana State University Tigers
The University of Mississippi Rebels
The Mississippi State University Bulldogs
The University of South Carolina Gamecocks
The Vanderbilt University Commodores
The University of Tennessee Volunteers

http://www.secsports.com/index.php?w..._channel_id=18

My guess is that all the stadiums on campus are owned by the schools. Since eleven of the twelve member institutions are state schools, then they may have received funding from or funded by the state. Or Commonwealth (Kentucky) as the case may be. :cool:

Ditto.

Except the guys didn't wear the "cute little dress and sunglasses with croakies". Just did not look right nor was it very comfortable. ;)

We usually wore khakis with a white button down oxford shirt with a blue blazer. (UK's colors are blue and white) Sometimes a blue tie if you were with a date. If it was hot, you might roll up your sleeves. If it got cool, you had your blazer to put over the shoulders of those girls in their cute little dresses. :cool:

Don't talk shit about Ole Miss til you've been to The Grove on a Saturday of a football game.

Mississippi to outsiders may not seem like anything special...but there's just a certain feeling about it that makes people who spend time there think it's the greatest place on Earth. Alos, some of those gravel roads lead to some of the most interesting places. John Grisham still lives in Oxford :) And I've sen Morgan Freeman on the square a few times(he lives nearby)

Also, don't think that there's more to do just because Tuscaloosa is a bigger town. I'm sure Tuscaloosa has more bars and restaurants and all but I PROMISE you'd fine no problem finding something to do in OXford...Oxford is one hell of a music scene (as is Athens) Remember we are only an hour from Beale Street.


UGA people:
I've always thought that I would like Athens...I have a cousin there but I have never been there. I hear Oxford and Athens have some of the best college music scenes around. I'm going to have to visit Athens sometime soon. Do you have any links of pics of the TOWN...I graduated so I just want to see pics of the town.

UGAnchora, I'm at a loss. I've never gotten teary eyed over a football game, but maybe the style is different for the Chiefs

In professional KC world, people show up the night before, camp out and then start putting the ribs on the grill, and drink some cheap in-state Budweisers. There's 80,000 at Arrowhead, and the crowd seems a lot more "out for blood" than your dawgs. During a Chiefs-Raiders game, you'll usually see a few people dressed up in a Gannon jersey riddled with red and yellow arrows, and stuff like that. And it gets so loud, you can hardly stand it when the Chiefs make a field goal, letalone when Dante Hall returns one. It just flat out hurts your ears...period.

I love Your stadium in Athens, I'd like to see how many could fill in if they finished the top tier and wrapped it alll the way around.

Alabama is the Alma Mater of my favorite football player of all time: Derrick Thomas (R.I.P.). But I'm still open to anyone who can convince me how Ole Miss is better than Alabama.

And I'm not talking shit about Miss either. I have no place to talk shit, I'm just stating an observation. Every house I saw had boarded up windows, and all of the vehicles were at least 30 years old, I kid you not. There's nothing wrong with that. That's how a lot homes around where I live are (poorest county in Missouri), but if I'm gonna move away from my house in order to go to another school, I would like for it to be in a place where there's plenty to do. Truth be known, fewer bars are better cause it makes everyone go to the same place. So I don't know. Like I said, if you can convince me otherwise, please do. And be happy, I don't burn any school except for KU...Stupid Kansas:mad:

Son, you ain't never been nowhere until you have attended an SEC football game in an SEC stadium. :cool:

Heck. At UK - where the Cats are, how do I say this delicately, not *as* competitive as our SEC brethren - the Cats sell out Commonwealth Stadium and get quite loud and rowdy. :D

Arrowhead always gets props for the loudest stadium in the NFL, all the time. It even gets louder than any of the domes. One LSU fan said the only place which can get as loud as Tiger stadium is Arrowhead, so my pride and opinion isn't totally off.

I find myself having to defend what I say, when I'm not arguing.:confused: :) I love you SEC guys and girls, I envy you, but don't think just because the Chiefs are not college football that they don't know how to get loud. They can rock the house, especially with the second largest professional stadium in america, and one of the few without Club seats. They have premium seats, but they're all outside, and only about 5,000 of the 80,000 people, and it's just for the rich people to cheer their butts off, which they still do. I got preseason tickets to club seats and basically it's the same except you get your own bar, and you can get something to eat other than a hotdog. There's only one other stadium I can think of that doesn't have luxury club seating, and that's Candlestick or whatever it's called nowadays (3com?).

ok most people are going to think I am crazy when I say this. Oxford has grrreat shopping too!

The WWD top ten America's Most Fashionable Colleges include:

1. New York University
2. Howard University
3. Southern Methodist University
4. University of Pennsylvania
5. Wesleyan University
6. University of Arkansas
7. Purchase College - The State University of New York
8. University of Mississippi
9. Yale University
10. University of California at Berkeley

OK Fashionable as in what they wear? I'm confused. It can't be. And what is WWD?

-Rudey

I would personally think that UCLA or USC would be among the most fashionable, but maybe that's just me.... NYU makes sense, though.

And to the smart-butt who responded that boys don't wear dresses, thanks. You're so cute. I'm laughing, hard. :rolleyes:

AMEN! :D

WWD? Women's Wear Daily--- fashion / retail newspaper.

Yay Mizzou!!! :D :D

what do you know about Kansas?
 

Hey, if you're from Missouri, what do you know about Kansas? I'm in Missouri now, but Kansas was my home for 20 years. Jayhawks ruled when I lived there. Of course, I know a lot of people who go to Lawrence to roll all the college kids when they go out celebrating all the wins. I can laugh at that now, I live in Missouri. But don't knock the state until you live there!!!!!

Are you anywhere near Dora, MO???? Your descriptions sound like you might be. We're a long way from everything there too.

That's because there are only 2 UF alumnae and 1 current student that I can think of who are currently (semi)active on GC.

BTW, Florida is one SEC team whose fans do not dress up for games. Sometimes, it reaches 90 (and above) on those Saturday afternoon games!

Gates
 

I'm a Nole and I hate the Gators, but if there's ANY school that considers themselves to be the ultimate SEC experience it is Florida. Florida's whole athletics world is build around SEC compeition. I don't know how anyone could possibly ask that question.

SMSUBear,

If you went to Mississippi and didn't see the beautiful antebellum houses there, then I am at a complete and total loss. I am from Tennessee (and we know our antebellum houses), but the houses in Mississippi are AMAZING.
There are shabby houses everywhere in this country -- it's not just native to Mississippi...
And, it is a bit simple-minded to choose a college based upon how the surrounding community looks. I am sure you will find some run-down houses anywhere you go.

hey Missouri girl Where ya from? Are you from Dora, cause I know some people from there. I'd ask if you knew some people, but I'm sure they'd like it if we went and told people their name and where they live.

Anyway, I doubt if I really go down there, but it would be really cool just to kick it SEC style for a football season down there. It's really just a thought, but it miiiiiight materialize into something more concrete. But most of my ideas don't. And Ole Miss is only 6 hours away!

I'm looking at South Carolina and might I just say...wow. That is one sharp campus! If I was gonna go on looks alone, I think I found my winner (that or Georgia). It would be fun to shout out phrases with tons of sexual innuendo laced within *barely restraining myself from example*.

And tippie, I only grazed the top of it on my way back from Huntsville, Alabama. We must have been going through a sour part of the state, too. I shouldn't have generalized, but wherever I was was sour.

SMSUBear


p.s. KU is a great school if all you wanna do is not get an education. Step on across the border to a school that doesn't make it onto everyone's party list. Sure they have basketball, but if a sport isn't full contact, than it's not a 100% sport:D

Stupid Question
 

I know that I should know this, but I really have always gotten confused (kind of like the Michigan v. Michigan State thing)

Ole Miss is the University of Mississippi and Mississippi State is the other one? I thought Ole Miss was in the SEC?

Help clear up my ignorant confusion!
