Ole Miss Rebels

The Ole Miss Rebels are currently ranked 9th in a challenging conference, but they are on the outside looking in for an NCAA Tournament bid. According to Bracketology, they are in the Next Four Out section and have two crucial games against Georgia and Texas A&M remaining on their schedule. Matthew Murrell leads the team in scoring with 17.0 PPG and has been a consistent performer, scoring in double figures in his last nine games. Allen Flanigan and Jaylen Murray also play key roles in the team's offense. Despite their current position on the bubble, the Rebels have a chance at an at-large bid with a strong finish. In terms of statistics, the team has been solid on offense, shooting well from the field and three-point range, but they have room for improvement on the defensive end. Overall, the Rebels have a record of 20-9 and are working towards securing a spot in the tournament. BIG bucket 🪣 @Jaemyn1 | #HottyToddy pic.twitter.com/PKzazvJyul
