Ole Miss Rebels VS Georgia Lady Bulldogs

The Pavilion at Ole Miss witnessed a commanding performance by the home team as they took control early on. The first quarter set the tone with the Rebels edging out their opponents 14-12. They built on this momentum and by halftime had extended their lead, showcasing not only offensive strength but also defensive solidity.


The second half saw no respite for the visiting team as Ole Miss continued to widen the gap. With an explosive third quarter scoring 24 points, they effectively put the game out of reach for Georgia. The Rebels' offense was firing on all cylinders, converting 46 percent from field goals and an impressive 48 percent from two-point range.


Ole Miss's defense was equally formidable; both teams recorded four blocks each, but it was in steals where Ole Miss shone brighter with eight against Georgia's four. This defensive prowess translated into points off turnovers, with Ole Miss capitalizing to score 23 points from such opportunities.


Rebounding was another area where Ole Miss excelled; they pulled down a total of 38 rebounds compared to Georgia's 26. This included securing more offensive rebounds (11) which led to them scoring nearly double in second-chance points (19) than that of their opponents (9).


Assists were telling of how both teams approached playmaking; while Georgia managed a respectable thirteen assists throughout the game, it was overshadowed by Ole Miss’s nineteen assists which underscored their collaborative effort.


Despite matching free throw percentages at approximately sixty-two percent each, it was clear that one team had found ways to draw more fouls and create chances at the line – evidenced by twenty-four free throw attempts for Ole Miss over thirteen for Georgia.


As fans look forward to future games, attention turns towards another challenging matchup for the Rebels as they prepare to face off against Missouri Tigers away from home at Mizzou Arena in Columbia on February 26th at 6:00 PM Central Time.
