The Rebel hype machine is ready to rumble for 2013 after a 38-17 Ole Mis win over Pittsburgh in Birmingham.
The Rebels ran for over 200 yards against the Panthers, putting an exclamation point on a surprisingly good season.
Pittsburgh is better than you think, and Ole Miss is going to be a 2013 preseason darling. But who's better (and more motivated) in Birmingham on what should be a chilly, cloudy afternoon?
The Pittsburgh Panthers take on the Mississippi Rebels in a battle between the Big East and the SEC.
For the third-straight year, Pittsburgh will play in the BBVA Compass Bowl. Meeting them in Birmingham will be 6-6 Ole Miss.
