OXFORD, Miss. - Three more Ole Miss seniors have been invited to play in college football postseason all-star games following the Rebels' 9-4 season and Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl appearance.
Serderius Bryant will play in today's Medal of Honor Bowl (1:30 p.m. CT, Charleston, S.C.). Carlos Thompson will play in the College Gridiron Showcase on Jan. 31 (1:30 p.m. CT, Arlington, Texas). Bo Wallace was invited to play in the NFL Players Association Collegiate Bowl, but will be unable to participate due to injury.
Senquez Golson and Cody Prewitt were earlier selected to play in the Senior Bowl, which will take place Jan. 24 at 3 p.m. CT from Mobile, Alabama. It will be televised by the NFL Network.
Golson, Prewitt, Bryant and Thompson helped Ole Miss finish as the nation's No. 1 scoring defense in 2014, giving up only 16.0 points per game.
Bryant, a native of Sanford, Florida, started seven of 13 games at Stinger linebacker this season and finished tied for third on the team with 65 tackles, adding 8.0 tackles for loss, a sack, an interception and a pass breakup. The 2013 All-SEC pick finished his four-year Ole Miss career with 232 tackles, 26 TFLs, four sacks, four forced fumbles and an interception.
Thompson, from Hollandale, Mississippi, played in 11 games at defensive end this year with 29 tackles, 3.0 TFLs and two quarterback hurries. In four seasons, he tallied 37 tackles, 4.5 TFLs and 1.5 sacks.
Wallace became the first Ole Miss quarterback to lead the team to three straight bowls since Romaro Miller in 1998-2000. He finished as the Ole Miss career record holder for total offensive yards (10,478), total offensive plays (1,581), completion percentage (63.0), passing efficiency (140.8) and 300-yard passing games (11).
