The Rebels were banned from appearing on television and the postseason due to severe sanctions handed down by the NCAA in November 1994 for violations committed by Billy Brewer, an ex-Rebel player who coached at his alma mater from 1983-93. As of 2025, the 1995 Rebels are the last team to be prohibited from appearing on live television by the NCAA.

Due to the lost revenue from the television ban, plus other budget difficulties, the Rebels were forced to take a five-hour bus ride to Baton Rouge for their game vs. LSU.
