Ole Miss baseball kicks off the final weekend of the regular season this afternoon against LSU. The Rebels are firmly on the bubble with three chances in Baton Rouge, La., to punch a ticket to the NCAA Tournament.

The Rebels are 27-25 (11-16 SEC) on the season following a 7-4 loss at No. 25 Southern Miss in the midweek. All three games at LSU (33-20, 10-17 SEC) are Quadrant 1 opportunities for the Rebels, whose postseason resume is currently lacking but does notably feature the nation’s No. 2 strength of schedule.

Ole Miss has won back-to-back SEC series and four overall on the year. The Rebels last did that in 2022. Duke transfer slugger Andrew Fischer became just the fourth Rebel in program history to hit 20 home runs in a season in the loss at Southern Miss.

Right now, D1Baseball has Ole Miss as one of the first four out of the field heading into the weekend.

But, LB’s Meat Market’s Greg Jones thinks the Rebs can get it done this weekend and make it in as a three or four-seed. On this episode of “The Flagship”, presented by College Corner, we preview the series and talk hypotheticals for postseason baseball.
