Forty total wins, with 18 coming in Southeastern Conference play, seems like a lock for a high seed come conference tournament time. However, for the 2016 Ole Miss baseball team, a No. 7 seed in the SEC tournament will have to do.
The Rebels wrapped up their regular season campaign with a win on the road against Texas A&M, just another conference foe gracing the top half of the national polls. The 40 wins tied a school record, and has the Rebels firmly in the top 10 of most collegiate polls.
But, as usual, many look at “what could have been” for this team.
