The Ole Miss Rebels have appeared in 41 bowl games during the course of its program history, owning a 26-15 record in those contests, not taking into account wins that were vacated due to NCAA sanctions. If you don't count the Rebels' later-vacated win in the BBVA Compass Bowl that concluded the 2012 season, they are 25-15 in postseason games.

Ole Miss learned its next bowl game destination on Sunday as it was revealed that the team will take on the Duke Blue Devils in the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl on Jan. 2. With that in mind, why not take a comprehensive look at Ole Miss' previous bowl game ventures?
