Some Saturday night heroics in the bayou have No. 19 Ole Miss riding a two-game winning streak, but the Rebels realize no opponent can be taken lightly in the Southeastern Conference. Coach Chris Beard's squad will play its second straight struggling foe when it faces last-place South Carolina on Wednesday night in Columbia, S.C. Ole Miss (18-6, 7-4 SEC) broke a disturbing recent trend while beating LSU on Saturday: The Rebels were victorious in a close game. In SEC contests decided by three points or fewer, Beard's bunch entered the battle in Baton Rouge 1-2 -- and the Rebels did just about everything they could to make sure a third loss was coming.
