No. 23 Mississippi knocks off Arkansas 73-66 for first win in Fayetteville since 2015
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Malik Dia scored 21 points to lead No. 23 Mississippi to a 73-66 win over Arkansas on Wednesday night, the Rebels’ first win in Fayetteville since 2015.
Sean Pedulla scored 16 and Dre Davis 10. Pedulla and Dia made back-to-back buckets with less than nine minutes left to build Ole Miss’ lead to double digits after Arkansas (11-4, 0-2 Southeastern Conference) had cut it to six.
Adou Thiero led the Razorbacks with 17 points on 7-of-12 shooting. The rest of the Arkansas team shot just 32%.
Dia, Pedulla and Davis scored 14 straight points for the Rebels (13-2, 2-0) over a five-minute stretch midway through the second, outscoring the Hogs over that span by four to keep the lead at double digits.
The Razorbacks, who fell out of the Top 25 last week after a loss at Tennessee, have started 0-2 in league play for the second straight season.
Takeaways
Arkansas’ NCAA Tournament hole may be large by the end of the week as ninth-ranked Florida visits Bud Walton Arena on Saturday.
The Rebels are 2-0 in the SEC for the first time since 2019, which is also the last time the Rebels made the NCAA Tournament. They look the part of returning in 2025.
Key moment
Ole Miss’ 17-7 run over the first 5:37 of the second half was precisely what the Rebels needed to get out of Arkansas with a win.
Key stat
Shooting doomed the Razorbacks. Arkansas shot just 22% from 3-point range to Ole Miss’ 39% and the Razorbacks’ leading scorer on the season, Boogie Fland, went just 5 of 20 from the floor for 14 points.

Emmett Till’s cousin on Till’s kidnapping
Emmett Till’s cousin, the Rev. Wheeler Parker, was in the family’s home when Till was kidnapped in the wee hours of Sunday morning, Aug. 28, 1955.
Sarah Warnock, Mississippi Clarion Ledger
The Mississippi Delta barn where 14-year-old Emmett Till was brutally beaten and killed will be open to the public as a “sacred” memorial site by 2030, the Emmett Till Interpretive Center announced.
The barn, located in a rural area outside the city of Drew, was purchased Nov. 18. The Emmett Till Interpretive Center announced the purchase Sunday, Nov. 23 — the birthday of Till’s mother, Mamie Till-Mobley.
The acquisition was aided by a $1.5 million donation from television producer and writer Shonda Rhimes.
The center will reportedly have the barn under 24-hour surveillance, and the property will be equipped with floodlights and security cameras for precautionary measures.
The center plans to open the barn as a memorial by the 75th anniversary of Till’s lynching.
“(The barn) will be preserved not merely as a structure, but as sacred ground — a place where truth can live without fear of being forgotten,” the center wrote in news release. “We did not save this place to dwell in grief. We saved it so that truth could keep shaping us.”
What happened to Emmett Till
Till was 14 when he traveled from his hometown of Chicago to Mississippi to visit relatives in 1955. Till was accused of flirting or whistling at Carolyn Bryant, a white woman working at a grocery store in rural Mississippi. In the overnight hours of Aug. 28, 1955, Till was taken from his uncle’s home at gunpoint and beaten by two vengeful white men, one of whom was the husband of Bryant.
Three days later, a fisherman on the Tallahatchie River discovered the teenager’s bloated and disfigured corpse. Till’s mother, Mamie, demanded that her son’s mutilated remains be taken back to Chicago for a public, open casket funeral that was attended by tens of thousands of people.
Graphic images taken of Till’s remains, sanctioned by his mother, were published by Jet magazine. Since then, Till’s name has become synonymous with the Civil Rights Movement and how the United States has dealt with race relations.
Till’s mother was a civil rights activist in the aftermath of her son’s death and died in 2003.
“To walk through the barn’s doors, one might think of Emmett’s voice calling for his mother in the dark — and of Mamie, hundreds of miles away in Chicago, transforming that cry into a call the world could hear. Her decision to open her son’s casket was not an act of despair but of fierce faith — faith that seeing would lead to understanding, and understanding to change,” the center said.
“That faith still calls to us. The barn carries her same charge: to help the world see.”

No. 6 Ole Miss (10-1, 6-1 SEC) will square off against the Mississippi State Bulldogs on Friday in Starkville for an Egg Bowl matchup at Davis Wade Stadium.
Lane Kiffin and Co. will look to cancel out the outside chatter with an opportunity to capture a victory and punch their ticket to the College Football Playoff.
Ole Miss running back Kewan Lacy is in the midst of a historic season for the Rebels with the fiery offensive weapon looking to once again lead the program in Week 14.
“It comes with having a support system, like my coaches, just trusting and believing in me,” Lacy said of his success this season. “Coming in here, putting in long hours of watching film with my coaches. Going through walkthroughs.
“It’s just a great feeling coming out here and showing what I to do and having the ability with my offensive line and the receivers. Showing it out there and going 1-0 [each week].”
Now, as the outside buzz swirls surrounding Kiffin’s future, the betting odds have been adjusted for Friday’s matchup against Mississippi State.
Matchup: Ole Miss Rebels at Mississippi State Bulldogs
Kickoff Time: 11 a.m. CT
Venue: Davis Wade Stadium – Starkville (Miss.)

Ole Miss is currently listed as 7.5-point favorites on the road against a struggling Mississippi State Bulldogs squad
The over/under for the matchup sits at 63.5 with the Ole Miss offense looking to wreak havoc against the Bulldogs.
“I mean, you say that, but people said the same thing about the Florida game – that there was all these distractions and how can a team focus – and I think they played pretty well,” Kiffin said Monday.
“I don’t have anything more to say about that. But I think our team has been very focused since noise has been out there, all the way back to the Oklahoma game and in the tunnel before that, that morning and everything. What are they, 4-0? So, pretty good job by them.”
