OXFORD – Rebel the Black Bear may be Ole Miss' mascot, but the school would just as soon have him not be in the spotlight Saturday.
At the end of each edition of ESPN's "College GameDay," which will broadcast live from the Grove on Saturday in advance of No. 11 Ole Miss' game against No. 3 Alabama, analyst Lee Corso makes his pick for the big game. A large percentage of the time that includes the head of the team's mascot.
Not so fast. This week, if asked, Ole Miss plans to give Corso the team's helmet. "That's what our team wears," athletic director Ross Bjork said. "It has our logo on it, and Rebel's head doesn't. We wanted our logo and that brand to be out there."

I'd give him the light blue helmet.
Does Corso usually go with under-dogs?

Mascot heads usually don't have logos.
Sounds like someone is either ashamed of his mascot or is worried about brand recognition.
Both are legit concerns, I guess.
