Texas Football: Ole Miss takes a jab at Longhorns joining the SEC
The trolling on social media has officially begun concerning the Texas football program and the Oklahoma Sooners ahead of the move from the Big 12 to the SEC. Texas and Oklahoma have essentially gone through the process of starting to leave the Big 12, but a lot of the formal process still remains.
It seems like through most of this process thus far for the Longhorns and Sooners to leave the Big 12 for the SEC, Texas bore the brunt of the media and fan backfire in the last four or five days. And that was evident with one of the more recent attempts to troll the Longhorns upon the move to the SEC.
The difference this time around is that the trolling effort came from an SEC program that wasn’t the Texas A&M Aggies. It was now the Ole Miss Rebels that tried to troll the Longhorns upon this move from the Big 12 to the SEC.
Ole Miss took to Twitter on July 26 to show pictures of the Rebels football team beating both Texas and Oklahoma at various points over the course of the past few decades.

Ole Miss takes a shot at Texas football’s move to the SEC on social media
Unfortunately for Ole Miss, that one win that the program got over the Longhorns (which came in 2013) had to be vacated. Ole Miss had all of the wins vacated under former head coach Hugh Freeze. But that win had originally come over Texas by the final score of 44-23 in non-conference play during the 2013 regular season.
Otherwise, Texas is 6-1 (per Winsipedia) all-time against the Rebels in football. The last win for Texas over the Rebels came in 2012, with a dominant effort in Oxford that resulted in a score of 66-31.
There is only one meeting ever between Oklahoma and Ole Miss in football. That one meeting came back in 1999 when the Rebels got the edge over the Sooners by the narrow final score of 27-25.

Texas and Oklahoma are likely going to set off another major round of conference realignment with the move from the Big 12 to the SEC. How that shakes out we should know more about in the coming weeks and months.
