Ole Miss basketball has a challenging task ahead of them, taking on No.1 ranked Auburn at Neville Arena. Coming off two losses and dropping out of the to-25 rankings, it doesn't get any more complicated than facing the Tigers right now.
Bruce Pearl's side has lost just twice in 27 games, losing just one SEC game. That was five games ago against Florida, which is ranked No.3. They also lost to Duke early in the season, a team ranked No.2. It continues to show how complex the task at hand is for the Rebels.
Ole Miss has suffered back-to-back losses to Mississippi State and Vanderbilt. However, they are still well-placed to receive a first-round bye in the SEC Tournament. A win over Auburn would help with that, but it would help. The Rebels play three top 5 ranked teams in its final four games.
They will be favorites to beat Oklahoma on home court, and picking up one win from the three games would likely help avoid a round 1 game. Wins will also help with a higher seed in the NCAA Tournament.
Ole Miss is playing with house money in this game. Expectations are for them to be beaten, but can they cause a big shock?
