Ole Miss still has somewhat of a shot. Only games left are @Georgia (winnable), vs. Mississippi State (should win), and @Tennessee(should probably win). If Ole Miss wins two of those three (which is possible, maybe even all three), and Vanderbilt loses 2 of their last 3 games, that puts us ahead of Vandy for the 6 seed in the SEC tourney (Florida would be the 5 if we finish with the same record, they beat us twice). With this in mind, we would play the 11 seed (right now Tennessee), then would play three seed (right now Texas A&M), then would play the winner of game 8 (lets assume the higher seed wins, so South Carolina, who Ole Miss played very tough earlier this year), and then I assume Kentucky in the title game. It's a very long shot, but if Ole Miss can win all three of these final games, and then win 2 or 3 games in the SEC Tourney (giving us a record of 23-11 or 24-11), we would make a strong case to be a last four in team.

EDIT - If Ole Miss finishes with the same record as Vanderbilt, we would be the 6, as we hold the tiebreaker (we won our only regular season matchup 85-78)

So in other words, you have no shot to make the tournament.

Ole Miss is 1-5 against top-50 RPI teams, with the 121st-ranked SOS.

No shot unless they win the SEC Tournament.
