Ole Miss basketball started its SEC campaign with a solid home win over Georgia, 63-51. After heading into the half with two points, top performances from Matthew Murrell and Jaemyn Brakefield helped the Rebels dominate the visitors, snapping their seven-game winning streak.
They now face their first SEC road trip of the season, something that was a problem in Chris Beard's first season. The Rebels went 2-9 on the road during 2024, missing out on a bid to the NCAA Tournament.
Arkansas is well into its first season under new head coach John Calipari and is coming off a big loss on the road to No.1 ranked Tennessee. It will expect to bounce back with home-court advantage.
The Razorbacks have dropped games against the Volunteers, Illinois, and Baylor and have looked far from convincing in some of their wins. Ole Miss did dominate the Fighting Illini at the start of the season, but that was a charity exhibition game.
Vegas has this as a close game, with Arkansas being slight favorites as the home team. If the Rebels can grab the win, it sets them up to go 3-0 with a home win against LSU before three games against the top 15 teams.
