Ole Miss takes on rivals Mississippi State in game five of SEC play, looking to follow up on their big win over No.4 ranked Alabama. The win moved them to 4-0 in the conference, but will they be focused on the job at hand after such an impressive win?
After winning their first two games in conference play, the Bulldogs have lost their last two to high-ranked teams in Kentucky and Auburn. Ole Miss knows how dangerous their rivals are and will be expecting a challenging game and atmosphere inside the Humphrey Coliseum.
The two shared the series last season, both winning their home games. However, Chris Beard's team is much better and more well-rounded this year. They showed that against Alabama, winning the turnover game and holding their own in rebounds, something that has changed drastically this season.
It would be a huge win again for Ole Miss, which would be another statement as a team to watch this season. The Bulldogs will feel the same way, as losing three ranked games in a row would hurt their NCAA Tournament chances.
