The Aggies and Rebels squared off earlier this month on Feb. 13 with Texas A&M earning a 69-67 victory at Reed Arena. During the contest, A&M senior guard Elston Turner exploded for a then-Reed Arena scoring record (men's games only) 37 points on 13-of-20 shooting with a career-best seven 3-pointers.

Turner's record stood for just 10 days before the Sacramento, Calif., native outdid himself by scoring 38 points during the four-overtime loss to Tennessee.

Also enjoying a solid outing during the first meeting with the Rebels was senior forward Ray Turner, who pulled down a season-best 13 rebounds while scoring eight points. Junior guard Fabyon Harris added 13 points in the contest.

Ole Miss enters Wednesday's match-up with a 20-7 overall record and possession of fourth place in the SEC standings with a 9-5 league mark.

Junior guard Marshall Henderson, who went 4-for-11 from the floor during the first meeting between the teams, enters the game leading the SEC in scoring at 19.7 points per game. Teammate Murphy Holloway ranks ninth in the league in scoring at 14.5 points per game and second in rebounds at 9.4 boards per contest.

During the previous showdown with the Aggies, Ole Miss featured five players in double-figuring scoring and were led by Reginald Buckner's 13.
