Ole Miss, Pitt eye winning seasons in Compass Bowl

Posted January 04, 2013 on AP on Fox
PLAYERS: Bo Wallace
TEAMS: Mississippi Rebels,  Mississippi State Bulldogs
Mississippi quarterback Bo Wallace says first-year coach Hugh Freeze has pulled off a total makeover of the team's culture. Freeze needs a win in Saturday's BBVA Compass Bowl against Pittsburgh and its first-year coach, Paul Chryst, to cap an unlikely turnaround from last season's 2-10 finish. Ole Miss and Pitt bring 6-6 records into the game. Each team had important final regular-season wins to become bowl-eligible. The Rebels beat in-state rival Mississippi State for their first Egg Bowl win in four years. The Panthers closed with back-to-back wins over No. 21 Rutgers and South Florida. Pitt is playing in its third straight BBVA Compass Bowl. The Panthers beat Kentucky two years ago and lost to SMU last season.

Looks like the group named King Kobraz decided to come up with a pump up jam for the Mississippi football team. It’s titled “Rebelz (Feed Moncrief)” for sophomore wideout sensation Donte Moncrief. Loving the tuxedo look. Keeping it classy like the Rebels always do. P.S. A must do on my list is to visit “The Grove” for one awesome tailgate. Sports jacket and all.
