Ole Miss (15-10, 10-8) ended the regular season in style on senior night at The Pavilion, whipping the Vanderbilt Commodores and securing the 6th-seed in Nashville this week at the 2021 SEC Basketball Tournament. Kermit Davis and the fellas have “enjoyed” an up-and-down year, struggling to score consistently and shuffling an always-evolving lineup that now has several vacancies.
Thursday, the Rebels will take on South Carolina (6-14, 4-12), a team that has had consistency issues of their own due to COVID-19. If Ole Miss can get it done on Thursday, they will move on to the next round to take on three-seed LSU, yet another team battling their own inner demons.
