The Ole Miss basketball team faces their toughest test of the early season with a Friday night trip to the Grindhouse to take on Josh Pastner's Memphis Tigers.
I will spare you the constant reminder of what happened back in October on the football field, BUT just in case you forgot why that game even happened, it was part of a duel-sport agreement between Ole Miss and Memphis that includes four football games (two of which have already been played) as well as four basketball games.
This is the 40th match up between the two ball clubs, which is a number that seems low considering the rivalry dates all the way back to the William Howard Taft administration and only 90 miles separate the two programs.
