Ole Miss: Are y'all and Memphis rivals?

I just noticed while checking y'all's schedules on ESPN that y'all have played Memphis home-and-home to open every season dating back to 2002 (and maybe further, ESPN only goes back to '02). Given the geographic proximity it wouldn't surprise me.
This isn't meant as a flame btw. This would be like LSU-Tulane imo. I was just curious how y'all regard your annual opponent to the north.

Lots of OM support in Memphis

They had a decent rivalry back in the day when Memphis was worth a shite.
Memphis has a lot of OM alums.
Also, Memphis is a very short drive from Oxford.

They also played in 99 in the worst game I have ever been to. Got in for free and swear I overpaid. I lived in Memphis for 11 years, and was a student at Memphis in 99 and never thought of Ole Mis as a rival

Not in baseball.
Memphis dominates them.

To answer your question/flame no we aren't rivals

They haven't played each other since like 2006 or 2007

If they were in a real conference, cared about athletics as a whole, and stopped being a commuter school, the possibility could exist.
Other than that, not really. We have literally nothing in common with Memphis.
