3 things to know about the Ole Miss Rebels

After going 1-1 last week, the No. 22 Kentucky Wildcats host the Ole Miss Rebels tomorrow at Rupp Arena.

Kentucky fell 89-85 to the Gonzaga Bulldogs on Saturday. Ole Miss will be looking to get back on track after dropping back-to-back games.

What are three things to know about the Ole Miss Rebels?

Ole Miss' guard trio can take over a game

Ole Miss has three guards who are capable of making things difficult for opponents.

Matthew Murrell, a 6-foot-4 senior from Memphis, Tennessee, leads the Rebels in scoring with 16.8 points per game, averages 3.7 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game and shoots 47.6% from the field.

Allen Flanigan, a 6-foot-6 senior from Little Rock, Arkansas, averages 15.7 points, 6.7 rebounds and three assists per game and shoots 43.2% from the field.

Jaylen Murray, a 5-foot-11 junior from The Bronx, New York, averages 14.3 points, 2.5 rebounds and four assists per game and shoots 44.2% from the field.

Kentucky needs to get these three out of their rhythm or it could drop its fourth straight game at Rupp Arena.

Ole Miss can force a lot of turnovers

Ole Miss averages 8.4 steals per game. 

Kentucky needs to do everything it can to avoid unforced turnovers because Ole Miss will force plenty.

The Wildcats need to be smart with the ball if they want to get back on track at home.

Ole Miss can shoot 3-pointers

The Rebels shoot 38.7% from beyond the arc as a team.

Flanigan, Murrell and Murray lead Ole Miss in 3-point shooting, but it is a strength for the team as a whole.

Kentucky's perimeter defense will be in for a challenge.

Tipoff is set for 9 p.m. ET. The television broadcast can be found on ESPN.
