Im not saying thats the case for everyone, but its not uncommon for people to go to Ole Miss because they couldnt get into the other SEC schools. A lot of people I know that didnt get into Tennessee went to Ole Miss, and the same goes for several people I know in Louisiana that didnt get into LSU, so they went to Ole Miss.

And that's for people from out of State. Within the Ole Miss community, there's a pretty significant schism between Mississippians who go to Ole Miss and out-of-staters who go to Ole Miss. That isn't to say that Mississippians hate all of the out-of-state students (one of my best friends in school was from Atlanta), but there's definitely a rift there between the "we came here because it means something to us and always has" and the "we came here because UGA and Texas didn't want us but hey that's okay all we wanna do is get wasted anyway" crowd.

When you look at the dumb shite that goes on at Ole Miss - the TSWRA stuff, Michael Hudec, brosephs passing out at the Levee - you'll see that a disproportionate amount of that shite is the result of dumb out-of-staters. And, until the government of Mississippi is no longer run by incompetent, delusional, moronic turds (that'll never happen), such will always seemingly be our (and State's, but to a lesser extent because Starkville sucks so out-of-state kids want to come to Ole Miss AMIRITE!?!) burden to carry.
