Oxford is preparing to host its biggest football night ever, and the predictions for Ole Miss vs. Tulane are only heightening that electric anticipation bubbling in the Grove.
Despite undergoing an unprecedented head coaching change right before the Playoff, Ole Miss is still the heavy favorite to come out on top against Tulane.

CBS Sports' Tom Fornelli listed the perfect "emotional" reason for the Rebels to prove themselves, besides showing that they are doing just fine without Kiffin.
"My guess is that, considering the emotional circumstances at play and that this is a home game in Oxford, which could allow Ole Miss fans, players, and coaches who have been frustrated by the whole situation to let it all out, we'll see the same aggressive approach as always," Fornelli wrote.
