A history of bad SEC starts: Ole Miss men’s basketball

If you’ve been paying attention to the Ole Miss men’s basketball team, and judging by the crowd shots on TV at home games, you haven’t, Kermit Davis’ squad is off to an 0-5 start in the SEC schedule.

In fact, they kicked off the 0-5 SEC start by losing to North Alabama in their last non-conference game of 2022 prior to beginning league action*. Yes, that would be the same North Alabama team that is 9-10 in the Atlantic Sun Conference and ranked 322nd (out of 363 teams) in KenPom.

*Perhaps it was an homage to the 2021-22 season when Davis lost to Samford at home in the final non-conference tune-up before SEC games.
