Ole Miss vs Mississippi State Live Stream: How to Watch Men’s College Basketball

The hometown Mississippi State will welcome in-state rival Ole Miss to the basketball court on Saturday night in a Southeastern Conference battle.

The Ole Miss Rebels will head on the road, though not far, in a Southeastern Conference showdown against the Mississippi State Bulldogs in men’s college basketball at Humphrey Coliseum in Starkville on Saturday evening. The Bulldogs have battled through a challenging SEC slate to reach 10-7 overall and 2-2 in conference play under fourth-year coach Chris Jans. Their season profile features quality nonconference wins over San Francisco, Memphis, and Georgia Tech, plus a conference-opening upset at Oklahoma. However, a recent two-game losing streak, including their latest loss, has left Mississippi State looking to rebound as mid-January arrives.

On Tuesday, Mississippi State fell 97–82 at home to No. 18 Alabama in a high-possession shootout in Starkville. Sophomore guard Josh Hubbard led MSU with 23 points and three three-pointers, continuing his identity as the primary scorer. Jayden Epps added 13 points, while center Quincy Ballard had a modest six points with a dominant 17 rebounds to lead Mississippi State on the glass in the loss.

The Rebels have steadied after a choppy nonconference stretch, reaching 11-7 overall and 3-2 in SEC matchups as Chris Beard’s group finds its identity. Their most notable wins this season have come over Memphis, Southern Miss, and Missouri, plus a road overtime thriller at No. 21 Georgia on Wednesday that showcased their resilience. That back-to-back success has turned an earlier three-game skid into a two-game winning streak entering the heart of SEC play.

Ole Miss’s last game against Georgia went into overtime and took a wild putback buzzer-beater from Patton Pinkins to give Ole Miss its 10th win. Despite AJ Storr finishing with a team-high 27 points and eight rebounds in 38 minutes off the bench, Pinkins, a freshman, dropped 18 points, including a perfect 3-for-3 from behind the arc. Ilias Kamardine fouled out in overtime, but still found a way to finish with 13 points, three boards, and a team-high six assists.
