There are only 20 undefeated college basketball teams remaining this season, and Ole Miss is among them after a 20-point victory over NC State on Tuesday.
The Rebels (6-0) have survived a few close calls this season, and the Tuesday tilt with the Wolfpack (4-2) was expected to be a jump up in terms of competitiveness. Chris Beard’s first year squad answered the call in a big way jumping out to a 17-5 lead early and never relinquished the lead in a 72-52 thrashing.
I’m not sure if former Duke forward Jaemyn Brakefield had some old ACC vibes working, but he played like a man possessed with a career high 25 points.
