The Grove<\/strong> is rocking. The media is buzzing. And so are the students. On the cusp of what could be the most monumental win in the Ole Miss<\/strong> Football modern era, we wanted to take it a step further. Let\u2019s talk National Championship<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s no secret that the path to the 2014 National Championship will make it\u2019s way through the SEC<\/strong>. With No. 11 Ole Miss<\/strong><\/a> taking on No. 1 Alabama<\/strong> this weekend, the road will become more visible as far as which team is \u201cAll-In\u201d which team is tapped out. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Rebels<\/strong> have roared out of the gates with a 4-0 start, the first one since 1970, and are poised to make some noise in the SEC West<\/strong>. With all the talk of SEC and National Championships in the air, we decided to take a look at the odds. <\/span><\/p>\n

As of today, Ole Miss is listed at 35:1<\/strong> <\/a>on winning the trophy according to the odds-makers at online betting site FootballBettingCenter.com. The odds tracker has those Crimson Tide<\/strong> Warriors at 9:2 and our little brothers down the road at 50:1. <\/span><\/p>\n

To put that in perspective, a $100 wager on the Rebels today would yield $3,300 in January. A long shot? Maybe, but wilder things have happened. <\/span><\/p>\n

In case you were wondering, the highest odds are for Oregon State<\/strong>, a 200:1 dark horse. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
