Ole Miss Basketball will look to follow up their road win over Missouri with another one against Georgia.

The Rebels halted their three-game losing skid on Saturday against Missouri, just their second road win against an SEC team this season.

With an NCAA Tournament appearance unlikely for another season, Ole Miss can still finish the regular season strong, with two games remaining. The first of those is this evening on the road against Georgia.

After a strong start to conference play, the Bulldogs have won just one of their last ten games. They have also lost their previous five home games, the most recent being a 70-56 loss on Saturday to Texas A&M.

The Bulldogs don't have much to shout about this season, ranking near the bottom of the Southeastern Conference in plenty of areas, including offensive efficiency. Georgia is averaging 11.6 turnovers a game, struggling to look after the ball in games this season.

One thing Georgia can hold on to is the second-half performances from Ole Miss. The Rebels have been playing good ball in the first half of games. However, their second-half performances have been way below what is expected from head coach Chris Beard.

One thing to keep an eye on heading towards tip-off time tonight is the status of Allen Flanigan. The senior forward has been struggling with his hamstring, only featuring for nine minutes against Missouri on Saturday. It would be a blow for the Rebels if he can't feature tomorrow evening.

A win tonight would mean Ole Miss would not have to play in the first round of the SEC Tournament. However, just going into the tournament with winning momentum would be key for this Rebels team.
