In addition to playing Georgia Southern and Baylor, Ole Miss is also scheduled to face off against Southeast Missouri in 2020 — leaving one additional non-conference game necessary to get a full schedule. In conference play, Ole Miss is set to host Alabama, Auburn, Mississippi State, and Florida, while traveling to Arkansas, LSU, Texas A&M, and Vanderbilt in 2020.
Ole Miss has only met Georgia Southern on the field one time, which came last season in a 37-27 win for the Rebels in Oxford.
