The Rebels come in on the list at No. 12 because their toughest home games come at the end of the season. The final three home games in Oxford will be against SEC opponents Texas A&M, Arkansas and LSU.
The Rebels lost quarterback Bo Wallace to graduation, but still return a good amount of guys on the defensive side of the ball that contributed to the highly touted “landshark” defense last season.
Fresno State, Vanderbilt, New Mexico State and Tennessee Martin are the other teams that will try and knock off the Rebels in Oxford in 2015, but more than likely, will have a hard time scoring the ball.
Ole Miss could finish 4-3 at home this season because of the possibility that the team doesn’t gel at the end of the season and their heavy schedule at the end may be too much to handle.
The Rebels toughest match-up at home this season will be on November 21 in their final home game of 2015 against LSU. If both teams are clicking and come together during the season, this could be a match-up of two top-25 teams. The Rebels will have to focus to claim a victory against the boys from Baton Rouge and not look ahead to rivalry week in Starkville.
Next: 11. Vanderbilt
