Ole Miss football announces date, start time for 2023 Grove Bowl
Ole Miss Football may be in a bit of a hibernation period coming off the heels of the 2022 season’s conclusion back in December, but it will be awakening soon enough.
Spring practices are a little over a month away and on Tuesday Ole Miss announced the date and start time for the annual Grove Bowl, which marks the end of spring drills.
This year’s Grove Bowl will take place on April 15 at 2 p.m. CT inside Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. Spring practice for the Rebels will begin on March 21. Television and gameday information for fans will be announced at a later date.
The Grove Bowl is the intrasquad scrimmage for Ole Miss and is usually divided up as the Red Team versus the Blue Team.
This year’s spring practice will have a lot of attention after Ole Miss recently added a new infusion of talent to the 2023 roster, welcoming 20 mid-year enrollees to campus.
