MEMPHIS, Tenn. – For the second time this month, the University of Memphis men's basketball team will face an opponent from a Power Five conference with an impressive resume.
Nationally ranked Oregon was the first major test in the Phil Knight Invitational Nov. 12 in Portland, a game the Ducks won, 82-74. Saturday at noon at FedExForum, unbeaten Ole Miss will offer another strong challenge for the 16th-ranked Tigers (4-1).
The Rebels are 4-0 after Tuesday's home victory over Seattle. And while Ole Miss isn't ranked, the Rebels are receiving votes in the USA Today Coaches Poll.
