Ole Miss basketball (4-2) head coach Kermit Davis and Rebels hoops were back in action Tuesday night as they faced a very good San Diego team in The Pavilion. The Rebels were returning from Destin, Florida where they participated in the annual Emerald Coast Classic where they finished one and one with a win over Baylor and a loss coming to Cincinnati.
The San Diego Toreros (5-2) entered the match-up coming off a 76-58 win over Jackson State. San Diego also had wins over Weber State and Colorado and entered Oxford with their only loss on the season coming to Washington.
