Talking about the embattled NCAA matchup coming our way, we're eyeing the Ole Miss Rebels trudging into Gatorland on a house call to the mighty Florida Gators, who've managed to nab the 5th spot in the AP ranking.
The Rebels have shown some teeth recently, but their record has been a bit of a seesaw. The Rebels are backed by the impressive Sean Pedulla, who's been dishing out a consistent average of 14.7 points per game in the past month, flanked by the likes of Brakefield, Dia, and Davis keeping the pace.
Conversely, the Gators sit pretty with a 26-4 record. They have Clayton as their vanguard, averaging a cool 16.1 points in the last month. Flanked by Haugh and Condon, who've been pulling good numbers on the rebound and assist fronts, they make a formidable lineup. Let's not ignore last year's stomping when the Gators outclassed the Rebels on their own turf. Paybacks can be troublesome, don't you think?
Given the Rebels' recent losses against Vanderbilt and Mississippi State, and juxtaposing that against the Gators' recent victories against Alabama and Texas A&M, it's no wonder the Gators are sitting pretty on their lily pad.
Drumroll, please, here comes your much-sought-after prediction. May the odds ever be in your favor.
