“Long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… Admiral Ackbar received a deep space transmission of SEC coverage. He found that he couldn’t stop watching everything from Football to Volleyball. One team stood out to him, the Ole Miss Rebels. He lead the Galactic Rebellion, and he knew he needed to be with the Ole Miss Rebels. And so, he started the long trek to Oxford, MS.”
