Kentucky vs Ole Miss Game Preview
Why Ole Miss Will Win
The Rebels have lost six of their last seven games, but they’re battling.
It’s a decent defensive team from three, it’s been good over the last few games on the free throw line, and there’s just enough ball movement to create points.

Why Kentucky Will Win
Kentucky needs this to stay alive in the SEC regular season title chase.

It’s 17-0 in Rupp.

What’s Going To Happen
It’s Kentucky’s final home game of the year, and it’s not going to come out light.
After the loss to Arkansas the energy will be there from the start, and Ole Miss won’t be able to keep up from there. A Rebel run will come in the early second half to make the Cats keep trying, but it won’t be enough to get by.
Kentucky will hit enough threes to open it up to stay alive for the SEC regular season title.
