Ole Miss took its talents to Athens, Ga., Feb. 7 to face off against the Bulldogs for the second time this season. The first matchup resulted in Georgia coming out on top 62-58, and this game was a very similar back-and-forth, but with the Rebels winning this time, 78-74.
The Rebels went into halftime up one point, similar to how Georgia did in Oxford a month ago. Forwards Jaemyn Brakefield and Myles Burns shouldered the offensive load all night, but it mattered the most in the first half.
This team has faced a huge issue this season: slow starts.
