Instant Reaction: No. 8 Ole Miss Defeats No. 13 Oklahoma
The Rebels' chances of earning a spot in the College Football Playoff took a big leap with a road win against the Sooners on Saturday.
Before the game, 8 Ole Miss's players and coaches had about a 50 percent chance of making the College Football Playoff. However, after the 34-26 win against No. 13 Oklahoma, their chances have increased significantly.
The Rebels' schedule for the next few weeks includes hosting South Carolina, The Citadel, and Florida, before playing Mississippi State in the Egg Bowl. This is considered one of the easiest schedules among SEC teams vying for a playoff spot.
