Ole Miss basketball has now lost five in a row and eight of its last ten games with a loss on Tuesday to Auburn, 82-73.
Matthew Murrell was the bright spot offensively scoring 24 points to lead the team, and Tye Fagan came off the bench to score 13 points. The Rebels (8-8, 0-4 SEC) led the Tigers (13-3, 3-1 SEC) at halftime by one point and at times seemed poised early on to make this an upset.
However, Auburn leaned on its transition offense for an early run in the second half to put this game away.
