Ole Miss Rebels Gear Up for NCAA Super Regional Showdown with Auburn Tigers

A best‑of‑three series in Auburn kicks off June 5, with ESPN broadcasting both games, as the Rebels aim to reach the College World Series.

The Ole Miss Rebels are set to travel to Auburn, Alabama, for the first game of a best‑of‑three super regional that begins on June 5.

The Road to Auburn

Game 1 will be played at Plainsman Park at 7 p.m. Central Time and will be carried live on ESPN2, while Game 2 is slated for June 6 at 4 p.m. on ESPN. A potential Game 3 would follow on June 7, with the start time to be announced.

The Teams' Journeys

Ole Miss entered the super regional after a dominant sweep of the Lincoln Regional, where they knocked off No. 1 seed Nebraska, as well as No. 3 Arizona State and No. 4 South Dakota State, demonstrating depth and resilience.

Auburn, meanwhile, survived an opening‑game loss in its home regional before rallying to win a winner‑take‑all contest against No. 4 seed Milwaukee, showcasing the Tigers' ability to thrive under pressure.

Although the two teams are SEC conference foes, they did not meet during the regular season, making the super regional a rare and highly anticipated clash between two of the league’s elite programs.
