Ole Miss Rebels Football - Team of The Century

Team of The Century

In 1992, to commemorate the 100th year of Ole Miss football, the Ole Miss Athletic Department put together a so-called "Team of the Century," recognizing the outstanding accomplishments of 27 different players. (The term "team" is used loosely, as 12 and 13 players were chosen to represent offense and defense, respectively, rather than 11, which would reflect the number of players on the field.)

The head coach for the Team of the Century was John Vaught, who coached Ole Miss from 1947–70 and again in 1973.
