The New Rankings: Ole Miss Baseball Drops in Top-25 Following Challenging Stretch

The Ole Miss Rebels suffered a blow in the newest edition of D1Baseball's Top-25 Rankings on Monday following a 1-3 week.
The Rebels new home in the polls is No. 18 dropping after dropping five spots from their previous slot of No. 13.
This comes on the tail end of a brutal week for Ole Miss baseball; starting with their first road trip of the season against South Alabama.
The Rebels were defeated pretty handily in their mid-week matchup afer South Alabama came away with a 14-5 win, crushing Ole Miss' then 13-game win streak.
This sent the Rebels into bounce back mode and bounce back they did in the opening matchup of their first SEC series against No.3 Arkansas where they rode hot arms and hot offense for a series opening 10-6 win.
From there, the following weekend days were not as bright for Ole Miss.
The Rebels went on to take back-to-back losses including a possible "Game of the Year" contender rubber match on Sunday.
This put the Rebels record for the year at 15-4 after heading into the week 14-1 on a 13-game win streak.
However, the fall from the Rebels did not completely knock them free as they did keep the No. 18 spot in the poll.
