Find out if Ole Miss remains amongst the ranked teams after latest release
No matter what happens with Ole Miss in the latest rankings, the Rebels can take comfort in their rival’s big fall.
Ole Miss didn’t have the greatest week last week, but it was better than its biggest rival’s week.
The Rebels fell two spots in the latest AP Top 25 Men’s College Basketball Poll, but Mississippi State suffered the largest fall in the poll, going from No. 14 to No. 22 after losing to then-No. 4 Alabama and then-No. 20 Missouri.
Ole Miss, on the other hand, beat Texas (who received votes in this week’s poll) and fell to No. 1 Auburn in a game that was closer than the 92-82 final score would indicate.
