Interesting Facts about Ole Miss Football

How well do you know your Ole Miss Rebels? Read up on 20 fascinating facts from 122 years of Ole Miss football. — www.saturdaydownsouth.com

Ole Miss football, steeped in history and Southern charm, boasts not just wins and championships, but a treasure trove of intriguing facts that add another layer to the Rebels' legacy. Here are a few that might raise an eyebrow:

From Coach to Quarterback? Absolutely! Jacob Bennett, head coach from 1928-1941, also suited up as the team's starting quarterback in 1923. Talk about multi-tasking!

Bowled Over? Believe it or not, Ole Miss has a better win percentage in bowl games (68.6%) than regular season games (60.5%). Maybe they just thrive under pressure!

First and Fastest? Ole Miss football claims the fastest play ever executed in FBS history, a lightning-quick 1.1-second touchdown reception in 2017. Talk about instant gratification!

Hall of Fame Haven: Ten former players and coaches grace the College Football Hall of Fame, including Frank "Bruiser" Kinard, a member of both the College and Pro Football Halls! Double the honor!
