This sets the stage for an already intense weekend, but it is now one of the most important weekends of the Rebels’ season.
The LSU Tigers will be in Oxford this weekend, ranked at No. 24. Each club is looking to remain inside the top 25. Ole Miss has been ranked two other times this season, but their appearances were brief as they followed with series losses, forcing them to work back in for what is now the third time.
The Tigers entered the season ranked inside the top 5, but struggles early on forced them to fight their way back into the polls as well.

Ole Miss and LSU are set for a three-game weekend clash, with first pitch scheduled for 6:30 pm on Friday, 4:00 pm on Saturday, and 1:30 pm for the series finale on Sunday.
