Missouri is coming off a close loss against the Alabama Crimson Tide. The Tigers fell to the Tide 88-74 in the final minutes. Missouri is currently 9-8 overall and 1-4 in the SEC.

The Aggies are also looking to bounce back after a loss. South Carolina beat Texas A&M 81-67 on Saturday. A win against Missouri would certainly help the Aggies, especially if they have any hopes of making a postseason appearance.

Ole Miss at Tennessee 9 p.m.

Ole Miss is seeking its first win in conference play and hoping to break their five-game losing streak. The Rebels meet the Tennessee Volunteers in Thompson-Boling Arena.
