The Ole Miss fan base has spoken, and according to Red Cup Rebellion, Rebels fans are rather confident heading into the 2014 season.

SB Nation’s popular Ole Miss site polled its readers to gauge how they felt about each of the Rebels 12 games this season. Fans were asked whether they felt each game was a certain loss, a probable loss, a virtual tie, a probable win or a certain win, and the tabulated results were published Tuesday morning.

Ole Miss fans were most confident in the team’s chances against Presbyterian on November 8, with 96.33 percent of voters selecting “certain win” for that particular game. More than 90 percent of fans thought the Rebels’ game against regional-rival Memphis on September 27 would be a certain victory, and 71 percent of fans said the same about Ole Miss’ September 13 showdown with UL Lafayette.

Of Ole Miss’ four non-conference games, Rebels fans felt least confident in their team’s chances Saturday against Boise State, with just 25 percent of voters selecting certain win. Another 70.5 percent of fans selected “probable win” regarding Saturday’s matchup, likely out of respect for what Boise has managed to accomplish against power conference teams in the last 10 years.

The fans’ confidence dropped tremendously when assessing SEC matchups. Rebels fans were most confident in their team’s chances against Arkansas, which failed to win an SEC game in 2013. Nearly 39 percent of fans thought the game against the Razorbacks would be a certain win, and another 55 percent of voters thought it would be a probable win.

A whopping 95 percent of fans thought the game against Vanderbilt on September 6 would either be a certain win or a probable win, even despite last season’s thriller between the Rebels and the Commodores. More than 91 percent of fans thought the same of Ole Miss’ matchup with Tennessee on October 18.

The majority of fans only predicted one showdown to be a “probable loss” or “certain loss” this season, as more than 70 percent of fans thought Ole Miss would lose its October 4 matchup with Alabama.

Just over 50 percent of fans thought Ole Miss’ game at LSU on October 25 would be a “virtual tie”, and 41 percent of fans thought the same of the Rebels November 1 showdown with defending SEC champion Auburn (another 36 percent thought the Auburn game would be a probable loss).

The Rebels haven’t won an SEC title since the 1960’s, so had the fans shown some hesitancy in projecting the coming season it would have been justified. Instead, the fan base reflected the same high expectations many experts have placed on Ole Miss entering the 2014 season.

The Rebels will try and live up to those expectations beginning Thursday night in Atlanta against Boise State.
