Ole Miss vs. Missouri basketball 2016: Rebels wrench win from perennial slammer Tigers, 76-73

Hey, Ole Miss played basketball on National Signing Day night and they won!

Overlooked due to Hugh Freeze and the Ole Miss football team getting croots on croots on croots earlier in the day, the Ole Miss basketball team actually played Missouri Wednesday night and emerged from a lightly filled arena in Columbia with a 76-73 win. While there were many moments in the second half when it looked like Ole Miss was spiraling towards the worst loss of the season, the Rebels were able to scratch out a win, despite trailing by four with 1:03 to play.
