Countdown To Kickoff: 62 Days

On the greatest day in American history, the countdown would like to honor the greatest team in Ole Miss history. The 1962 Ole Miss squad posted the school's third national championship in four seasons and the Rebels only perfect season with a record of 10-0. That season the Red and Blue outscored their opponents 230-40 and capped the season with a win over Arkansas in the 1963 Sugar Bowl. The "Walk Of Champions" archway in the Grove was donated by the members of the '62 team and honors their accomplishments.






If you have a suggestion for a favorite player, play or something a little more creative you would like to see featured in the countdown, leave a comment below or shoot me an e-mail at desnowde@olemiss.edu.
