The No. 3 Ole Miss Rebels got crunched, 38-10, by the 25th-ranked Florida Gators on Saturday night at The Swamp, which means the Rebels' run as rankings darlings could be over.
Ole Miss steadily ascended up the Associated Press Top 25 poll over the first three weeks of the season, and it used an upset win against the Alabama Crimson Tide in Week 3 to move into a tie for No. 3.
However, the Rebels have tapered off ever since. They put forth an uninspiring effort in a 27-16 win over the Vanderbilt Commodores a week ago, and that lethargy carried over to Saturday's showdown with the Gators.
