Texas A&M forward Rashaun Agee emphasized the need for the Aggies to be on their toes when playing the Ole Miss Rebels, noting the depth of SEC basketball this year. Despite Ole Miss' 3-9 conference record, Agee warned his teammates that they must come in with a "dawg mindset" to avoid an upset.
Why it matters
The Aggies are looking to get back on track after recent losses to Vanderbilt and Florida, and they can't afford to overlook an Ole Miss team that has shown the ability to limit explosive offenses this season.
The details
Agee, a transfer from USC, has been one of the most consistent producers for Texas A&M this season, averaging 13.7 points, 8.9 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and one steal per game. He has recorded 10 double-doubles, making him a cornerstone of the Aggies' starting five. While Ole Miss ranks fourth in the SEC in total defense, allowing just 73.7 points per game, the Rebels are allowing opponents to shoot over 33 percent from the three-point line, which could be an advantage for the Aggies, who are shooting over 37 percent from beyond the arc this season.
- The game is set to tip-off at 6 p.m. on SEC Network.

What they’re saying
“They're dangerous. Everybody in the SEC is an opponent that you have to respect. I tell my teammates all the time that if you don't come in with that dawg mindset, then you don't need to play. We have to stay in attack mode.”

The takeaway
This game highlights the depth and competitiveness of the SEC this season, as even a team like Ole Miss, which sits near the bottom of the conference standings, is still capable of pulling off an upset against a program like Texas A&M. The Aggies will need to bring their best effort and maintain an aggressive mindset to avoid a letdown against the Rebels.
