The Ole Miss Rebels played a couple of close games last week, taking down the BYU Cougars 96-85 in overtime and falling to Purdue 80-78. Those two games were part of the Rady Children's Invitational in San Diego, and they were enough to keep Ole Miss locked in at No. 23 in this week's AP Top 25.

The Rebels are one of eight SEC teams to be included in this week's poll, an indication that the conference will once again be deep with talent. Three of the teams in the top five of the poll reside within the Southeastern Conference, and the time will soon arrive where the league teams will square off against one another.
