Ole Miss fans will have to be up a little earlier this weekend to watch the men’s basketball team play.
According to the university’s athletics department, Saturday’s matchup at Kentucky has been moved up one hour due to the effects incoming Winter Storm Fern is expected to have on the Lexington area. Instead of tipping off at 11 a.m. CT, the game will begin at 10 a.m. CT, officials report.

The Rebels had a three-game winning streak snapped on Tuesday, as Auburn bested Chris Beard’s group 78-66, marking the Tigers’ 10th straight victory over their SEC foe. Ole Miss will look to turn the page when facing the Wildcats this weekend. The last time the two teams squared off, the Rebels won 98-84.
Saturday’s game will air on ESPN and participating SuperTalk Mississippi stations.
