The Rebels are making their ninth NCAA Tournament appearance. Eight of those have come in the past 23 seasons, with the 1981 SEC Tournament champions being the only ones to advance to the Big Dance in the first 86 seasons of Ole Miss Basketball. The Rebels own a 5-8 record in NCAA Tournament games with their best showing being a Sweet 16 appearance during the 2000-01 season (school record 27 wins, tied with the 2012-13 team).

Like I said the other day we have an embarrassing basketball history but appreciate the thread and the effort you put into them.
One unfortunate thing I wanted to point out:
quote:
-The Rebels lead the SEC and rank third nationally in free throw percentage (78.3); Ole Miss has shot over 85 percent from the free throw line in 12 games this season, including 90 percent-or-better in six games
We shot 93% FT against Tennessee (13 of 14) and lost. We were 13/13 going into the final minute and Tyree came to the line for a 1 and 1 and could have clinched the win, but he missed his first and we lost.
It sucked
