Memphis is not the only Mid-South team invited to the Div. I Men's Basketball NCAA Tournament.

The Ole Miss Rebels square off against the Wisconsin Badgers Friday morning in Kansas City.

Rebel fans are getting fired up about their team's first appearance in the tournament since 2002.

The feeling in Oxford is one of excitement.

One of the big questions in Oxford is should the Rebels, which won the Southeastern Conference championship, have been seeded higher than 12th. The Badgers are a fifth seed after Wisconsin lost to Ohio State in the B1G Ten Championship.

Many Hotty Toddy fans feel like the Rebels may have been done a disservice, but that could play to their advantage.
