In a spotlight night for the SEC, No. 21 Ole Miss was the biggest winner on Tuesday. Mississippi went into Alabama and knocked off the No. 4 Crimson Tide in a 74-64 stunner. The upset over the nation's highest-scoring team highlighted a marquee night in the SEC with three matchups of teams ranked in the top 25.

It was easy to overlook a hot start to Chris Beard's second season at Ole Miss for a couple of reasons. The Rebels also started with a bang in 2023-24, standing at 15-1 this time last year before going 5-11 and missing the NCAA Tournament.
