How and what to watch for Ole Miss vs. No. 20 Missouri

The Ole Miss Rebels are heading off to Columbia to take on the Missouri Tigers on Tuesday night to try and claw their way back into the top half of the SEC.

Ole Miss (12-9, 7-7 SEC) has been trending in the right direction, winning four of their last five games over conference foes. Their offense is inconsistent and is scoring just under 70 points per game on the season. But their defense allows just 63 points to opponents, which KenPom has ranked as the 23rd-best unit in the nation. They have three players averaging in double figures, but Devontae Shuler is the leading scorer with nearly 16 points per game.

Mizzou (14-7, 7-6 SEC) is heading the opposite way than Ole Miss having lost three of their last five games, including a 31-point fail to the Rebs just two weeks ago. The Tiger offense is scoring more than Ole Miss, at a 75 points per game clip, but their defense is giving up 72 to their opponents on average. They have four players averaging double figures and are led by Xavier Pinson, who is scoring nearly 15 points per contest.

KenPom is giving Mizzou a 62% chance to come away with a win
