Ole Miss Basketball Survives Murray State 78-73: Three Takeaways from the Rebs Win

The Ole Miss basketball team has been a weird one all year. From the abundant turnovers to the poor perimeter defense.

Ole Miss came into the game against the Racers looking for their 7th win this season.

The Rebels (7-3) started the game out hot, taking a 43-31 lead at halftime over the Racers (5-6). Ole Miss started to extend that lead early in the 2nd half, but would soon allow the Racers back in the game.

In the last nine minutes of the game, the Racers outscored Ole Miss 29-14, in large part to forcing turnovers on full court press defense.
