What Ole Miss lacks in consistency offensive end of the court at times, they make up for it on the defensive in.
A steel curtain is beginning to form on the opponent’s end of the floor and was present in the Rebels’ 61-50 win against Texas A&M on Saturday at The Pavilion.
For a fourth time this season, Ole Miss (8-6, 3-4 Southeastern Conference) held their opponent to 50 points or less and a second straight time in conference play. The Rebels held Mississippi State to 46 points on Tuesday.
A stretch between the first and second half saw the Rebels 1-3-1 defense stifle Texas A&M (7-6, 2-5) during a 24-2.
