Rebels Pull Out Comeback Road Win at Alabama
2/27/2010 | Men's Basketball
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) - Ole Miss came from behind yet again to claim a 76-73 victory Saturday at Coleman Coliseum, the Rebels' fourth SEC road win of the season.
Murphy Holloway led five Rebels in double figures with 16 points. Terrico White scored 15 points, Trevor Gaskins had a season-high 14, Chris Warren chipped in 12 and Terrance Henry 11.
Warren hit two free throws with 8.6 seconds left to help Ole Miss finish off the comeback.
The Rebels (19-9, 7-7 Southeastern Conference) rallied from an 11-point second-half deficit for just their third victory in the last eight games. They came back from 13 points down to beat Auburn earlier in the week.
The teams traded the lead three times in the final minute before White's 3-pointer from the right wing with 31 seconds left put Ole Miss up 74-72. Alabama (14-14, 4-10) called time out to set up the shot.
Mikhail Torrance drove to the basket but his shot bounced off the rim. JaMychal Green grabbed the rebound and was fouled with 9.8 seconds to play. He missed his first free throw but hit the second and Alabama was forced to quickly foul Warren, an 83 percent foul shooter.
Ole Miss earned a season sweep of Alabama for the first time since 1998, and the Rebels have swept both Auburn and Alabama for the first time in school history.
