Ole Miss hoops carries a two-game winning streak up to Knoxville, Tenn. on Wednesday, where the team looks to close out the season’s home-and-home series with a pair of wins over the Volunteers. The Rebs took the opening salvo back on Jan. 17, 80-69, on the night that Rasheed Brooks suffered a seizure.
Since that game, Ole Miss has gone 3-2, while Tennessee has gone 4-1, including a 72-70 dogfight of a triumph over No. 4 Kentucky. Rick Barnes’ club is certainly trending up in the waning weeks of the regular season, and it’ll be a tall order for Andy Kennedy’s men to stop Tennessee’s momentum on their home floor.
