The week in Ole Miss sports: Softball's in the NCAA Tournament and Steve Spurrier's hatin

Steve Spurrier took an amusing shot at the NCAA drama, the Rebel softball team starts its first ever Big Dance on Friday night and Andy Kennedy signed a dude who's 7 feet tall. SEVEN FEET.

1. Women's softball is playing its first ever NCAA Tournament game.

In just his second season at the helm, head coach Mike Smith has led Ole Miss to a program-record 39 wins and a berth as a No. 2 seed in the Norman, Okla. regional tilt. The Rebel women face off against three-seeded Tulsa on Friday at 5:30 p.m. CT, and you should most definitely crack open a twelver and stream the game on WatchESPN.
