You would be surprised how many freshmen already know each other prior to coming to college. Plus, most have come up for many visits prior to their freshmen year so they probably just get their friends in the dorms and classmates to vote for them.
At Ole Miss we always do things differently! The courts, queen, Miss Ole Miss, and Col. Reb are all picked ahead of time and annouced ahead of time. I guess that is because there are so many that run it would be hard to announce the winners on the field the day of the game. Plus the Queen gets a big white dress (like a deb dress) and she has her picture taken ahead of time to go on the cover of the Game Day Program.
