NEW YORK – The Associated Press released the 2025 Preseason AP Poll on Monday, slotting Ole Miss at No. 21, giving the Rebels a spot in both the media and Coaches Poll (No. 15) to start the season.
Lane Kiffin's squad is one of 10 SEC teams in the preseason Top 25, alongside No. 1 Texas, No. 5 Georgia, No. 8 Alabama, No. 9 LSU, No. 13 South Carolina, No. 15 Florida, No. 18 Oklahoma, No. 19 Texas A&M and No. 24 Tennessee. Missouri and Auburn each received votes as well.
Ole Miss is coming off a second consecutive 10-win season and its third in a four-year span. The Rebels must replace its most NFL Draft selections in its current seven-round format, with eight players selected.
Kiffin and Co. reloaded with the No. 2 transfer class, as well as a top-25 freshman class.
