Mississippi State has a 75% acceptance rate. Maybe it’s changed today but back when I was in school 97% wasn’t on par with 75%.
Think about this with logic. Ole Miss and State have the same acceptance requirements. If Ole Miss is accepting at a higher rate, that must mean Mississippi State has a lot of dumbasses that apply there but don’t make it in. Ergo, Ole Miss students are actually more intelligent on average.

We get a ton of kids who didn’t get into Texas or Georgia

No, all it means is Ole Miss gets more applicants who meet the pitiful state admission requirements.

Considering the two schools' enrollments are nearly dead even, acceptance to Ole Miss is getting turned down much more often than State, likely by the applicants with better resumes when they get into the school they actually want to go to.

So it likely gives the edge to State in overall student quality.
