ok...no one said it wasn't, but it's still considerably smaller than most the rest of the conference at just 18k undergraduate students. so while the rate at which the gap is increasing, between ole miss and a school like lsu, may have lessened, the gap is still growing wider each year, and ole miss still has decades of alumni to catch up to with the bigger schools. again, it's not a knock on ole miss or anything, it's just a simple reality of their situation and possible number of fans to fill a stadium. unless you're a bandwagon school like Notre Dame, a small school is not going to have the sheer number of alumni to fill up 100k+ seat stadiums every weekend, which is why Ole Miss doesn't have a need to expand much further than what they already have. It would be counterproductive outside premium seating.
