TCU 66, Ole Miss 54:
Karviar Shepherd scored 10 of his 14 points in the second half and added nine rebounds as the visiting Horned Frogs topped the Rebels in the Big 12/SEC Challenge.

Brandon Parrish knocked down all three of his 3-point attempts en route to 11 points and Kyan Anderson collected 11 points and five assists for TCU (8-0), which held its fifth straight opponent to less than 55 points. Amric Fields added 10 points off the bench for the Horned Frogs.

Stefan Moody struggled to 12 points on 3-of-11 shooting for Ole Miss (5-2), which shot 29.8 percent from the field. Rebels leading scorer Jarvis Summers was limited to eight points on 2-of-12 shooting.

Ole Miss shot 25 percent in the first half but made 10-of-12 free throws to keep it within 27-24 at the break. Moody’s free throws opening the second half made it a one-point game before Shepherd and Williams scored four points apiece during a 10-2 burst to stretch the lead to 37-28.

The Rebels were within five points with 13 minutes left but went more than eight minutes without a field goal as the Horned Frogs pulled away. Fields nailed a 3-pointer to make it a 58-39 gap with just over five minutes left and TCU had no trouble holding off Ole Miss the rest of the way.

GAME NOTEBOOK: TCU freshman G Chauncey Collins went for a rebound with 8:43 left and was knocked on the chin before falling backward and hitting his head on the court. Collins was on the ground motionless for several minutes while being tended to by trainers before finally sitting up and being helped to the locker room. … Ole Miss dropped to 62-7 at home in non-conference games under coach Andy Kennedy. … The Horned Frogs improved to 2-0 all-time in the Big 12/SEC Challenge.
