The Tigers (8-23) and Rebels (19-12) will meet in the late game Thursday after 14th-seed Missouri upset No. 11 Auburn 86-83 in overtime on Wednesday night.
Kevin Puryear hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to win it after Frankie Hughes had nailed a 3 with 3 seconds left in regulation to send it into overtime.
Missouri rallied from 72-62 down to force that overtime.
Missouri played hard and fought the whole game. Auburn made mistakes and gave up a 12 point lead in the final 4 minutes. Playing Ole Miss would be better for our RPI and Missouri does nothing positive for the hogs. I would rather the hogs face Ole Miss.
There may well be some upsets today.
I like Georgia over Tennessee.
Mississippi State over Alabama
Vandy over Texas A&M
Ole Miss over Missouri
