Ole Miss basketball now a projected 9-seed for NCAA Tournament

In the last week, Ole Miss has won a game in unimpressive fashion against Georgia, and nearly upset top ten Tennessee.

Winning, according to a recent internet search I conducted, is better than losing, so I expected Ole Miss to hold its ground at least in the most recent bracket projections released today.

Projections are divided on how Ole Miss will fare, however, on Selection Sunday, which is now achingly close. The Rebels have three games remaining - at Arkansas, No. 4 Kentucky, and at Missouri - to earn up to 22 regular season wins, 12 SEC wins, potentially move into a top four spot in conference and earn a double bye in the SEC Tournament.
