The 2010 Ole Miss Rebels football team represented the University of Mississippi during the 2010 college football season. The team was coached by Houston Nutt, who was in his third season as the Rebels' head coach. Ole Miss has been a member of the Southeastern Conference (SEC) since the league's inception in 1932, and has participated in that conference's Western Division since its formation in 1992. The Rebels played seven home games in 2010 at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford, Mississippi, which has been Ole Miss football's home since 1915. They finished the season 4–8, 1–7 in SEC play.

The Rebels finished the 2009 season 9–4, 4–4 in SEC play and won their second straight Cotton Bowl Classic 21–7 against Oklahoma State. They finished #20 in the final AP Poll and #21 in the final Coaches Poll.

Jeremiah Masoli, former Oregon quarterback, walked on to the team months after being dismissed from Oregon.

Ole Miss began their 2010 football season with a loss to Jacksonville State. Jacksonville State won 49-48 after a touchdown and successful 2-point conversion in double overtime.

Ole Miss started their season against Jacksonville State and then a road game against Tulane. The Rebels hosted SEC opponents Vanderbilt, Kentucky, Auburn and Mississippi State and travelled to Alabama, Arkansas, Tennessee and LSU. The Rebels played host to the Ragin Cajuns of Louisiana Lafayette for their homecoming game on November 6th.

The Rebels' schedule will feature four (3 home, 1 away) non-conference games against non-BCS opponents. Their conference schedule features the other five teams from the SEC West, their Eastern division constant opponent Vanderbilt, and Kentucky and Tennessee. Their Homecoming game will be against the Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns.
