Analyzing Ole Miss’ NCAA Tournament bracket draw

Ole Miss is officially an NCAA Tournament participant for the first time since 2015. After finishing with 20 wins in Kermit Davis’ first season, the Rebels were handed an eight seed in the South bracket.

After weeks of bracketology and prognostications, we can finally turn our attention to the Rebels’ path through the bracket, which begins with a first-round matchup against nine-seed Oklahoma and, should Ole Miss live to tell the tale, runs through No. 1 seed Virginia in the second round.

The Rebels tip against Oklahoma Friday at 11:40 a.m. CT in Columbia, S.
