247Sports Predicts Ole Miss Football Win Total in 2022
With the 2022 College Football season just around the corner, 247Sports recently projected win totals for every team in the Southeastern Conference next season.
The SEC is competitive every year, but expectations are higher next season for teams in the conference. The Georgia Bulldogs are reigning National Champions, the Alabama Crimson Tide are still coached by the best coach in college football, Nick Saban, and the Ole Miss Rebels are coming off their first 10 win regular season in program history.
Let's take a look and see how many total wins 247Sports has projected Ole Miss to earn in 2022.
OLE MISS REBELS

: Over; Heading into October, Lane Kiffin's team
should
be 4-0 and ranked inside the top 25. That would be enough to establish confidence on offense with Jaxson Dart at quarterback. Where the Rebels go from there, however, remains somewhat of a mystery. There's a chance Ole Miss could be 7-0 before facing its first nationally-ranked opponent at LSU unless Kentucky and Auburn are better than expected, but that's when the gauntlet begins. Ole Miss endures LSU, Texas A&M, Alabama and Arkansas over a four-game stretch late before hosting Mississippi State. Eight wins feels like it's right on the number.
The Rebels have four favorable matchups to start the 2022 season, beginning with the Troy Trojans in week 1, followed by the Central Arkansas Bears, Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, and Tulsa Golden Hurricanes. But after the first four weeks, Ole Miss takes on eight SEC opponents in a row.
Here are the win projections for the rest of the SEC.
