Scouting the Ole Miss Rebels



On paper UK is the clear favorite in today’s game, however Ole Miss beat UK in Oxford earlier this year so they are no pushover and we need to come into the game focused and prepared.  The Rebels are sporting a 20-12 record (7-9 SEC) and have a fairly well balanced offense having 7 players averaging over 6 points a game this season.  Their top scorers are Chris Warren, Zach Graham, Terrance Henry, and Reginald Buckner.  Henry and Buckner are the top rebounders.  Some of these players stats are listed below:

In all reality, Kentucky’s talent ought to outmatch Ole Miss.  The Cats should look to avenge their loss earlier this year and come out with a chip on their shoulder.  Combine that with the fact that this should essentially be a home game for UK with the fan support in Atlanta and you would have to assume UK will blow-out their opponent.  Handle your business!  Go Cats!
