247 Sports Grant Hughes released his personal ten teams that could win a 2024 national championship, with Ole Miss Football making the list.

Ole Miss keep making the top ten way-too-early rankings and national championship contenders lists by media outlets. It's not what head coach Lane Kiffin loves hearing, dropping his famous rat poison emojis in reply. However, it's a testament to what Kiffin is building in Oxford.

Grant Hughes of 247 Sports is one of many media personalities who has Ole Miss high on his list of teams heading into 2025. The Rebels were one of five SEC teams that made his ten teams with national championship credentials.

For Ole Miss Football fans, it's exciting to see the team's name alongside SEC powerhouses Georgia and Alabama. For too long, the team has been a potential top 25 team, with an upside to crash the top ten.

We know Lane Kiffin has been able to utilize the transfer portal since the rules changed, more so during this transfer portal cycle. The players Kiffin has brought in are a big reason why the media like the Rebel's chances in 2024.

The hype is not going to slow down over the next six months before the season opener in August. Ole Miss just have to deliver under the pressure the media is heaping on them.
