No. 17 Ole Miss will take on the Florida Gators on Wednesday night in Hoover (Ala.) to begin the program's quest in the Southeastern Conference Tournament.

The Rebels received a first-round bye and will now take on the Gators after the Sunshine State squad took down the South Carolina Gamecocks on Tuesday in Round 1.

Florida (38-19, 15-15) is scorching hot heading into postseason play, and with Ole Miss in need of a win in the SEC Tournament, it's set the stage for a fiery matchup.

"We played them early in the year, so it's a totally different Ole Miss team and we're a totally different Florida team," Florida coach Kevin O'Sullivan said.

"I don't know how much we can take away from that series. They're talented. They're older… They're well rested. They've had a great year. So, we'll just go out and play tomorrow and see how it goes."
