The Pavilion

Why is this even a reason you ask? It’s simple really. This is the house AK built. So far this season, the Rebels have a 13-5 home record, with huge wins over UMASS, Memphis, Vandy, Tennessee, and South Carolina. The last home game was a 75-70 win against South Carolina, who just defeated Duke in the NCAA tourney. Oh yeah, we also had the 88-61 blowout win over in state SEC rival MSU.

Home Court Advantage

So, we have momentum at home right now going into tonight’s game with The Wreck and that’s very important. Because the quarterfinals are being played here, and of course, Ole Miss basketball has to win over GT to advance. Rebel fans can expect another big run tonight amid what could be record-setting crowd.

The atmosphere in and around The Pavilion will be electric tonight, as the Ole Miss Rebels host their first post season game in the new arena. The Pavilion will surely be rocking, thanks to Coach Andy Kennedy covering ticket costs for all students wanting to attend the game. Why would anyone want to fire him? Smh.
