Vanderbilt (13-10, 5-5 SEC) led 39-37 at halftime, behind 13 points from Kornet. Vanderbilt was up 37-26 with 2:51 left in the first half, but Ole Miss closed with an 11-2 run to stay close.

Guard Tomasz Gielo and Brooks each hit 3-pointers, and Moody hit three consecutive free throws during the Rebels' late charge.

Ole Miss continued its push midway through the second half. Moody hit a pair of 3-pointers in the middle of a 17-5 run that put the Rebels up 64-55 with 8:55 to play. The Rebels lead grew to 13, before Vanderbilt battled back.

Baldwin completed a three-point play to cut the deficit to 68-64 with 4:15 to play. There was a skirmish after Baldwin's layup that resulted in four technical fouls.

Things calmed down, and Ole Miss prevailed.
