Ole Miss Slides to Bubble in NCAA Tournament Projections Following SEC Skid
The Ole Miss Rebels fell out of the Top 25 this week, and they are in danger of falling out of NCAA Tournament projections after a winless week on the hardwood.
The Rebels (15-3, 2-3 SEC) dropped road games against the LSU Tigers and Auburn Tigers last week, and they slid to the bubble in the latest bracketology projections from Joe Lunardi. You can view his full list here.

According to Lunardi, the Rebels are currently in the "Last Four In," and they would face the Kansas State Wildcats as an 11-seed for the right to play six-seed Colorado State in Pittsburgh, part of the Dallas Region headed by top-seed North Carolina.
Ole Miss has two opportunities to restore conference momentum this week when it plays host to the Arkansas Razorbacks on Wednesday and travels to face the Texas A&M Aggies on Saturday.
Tip-off against Arkansas is set for 8 p.m. CT at the SJB Pavilion, and the game will be televised on ESPNU.
