Game Overview
The Ole Miss Rebels, a strong SEC team, host the UL Monroe Warhawks in the season opener for both squads.

UL Monroe, led by first-year head coach Phil Cunningham, is looking to build momentum in a challenging non-conference matchup on the road.

- No significant injury reports available for either team at this time, indicating both teams likely will have their core players available.
- Ole Miss holds home court at Tad Smith Coliseum, enhancing their advantage. UL Monroe faces travel fatigue and an early tough opponent after starting their season on the road.
