No. 23 St. John’s Red Storm (4–3) returns to the spotlight at Madison Square Garden on Saturday, welcoming the Ole Miss Rebels (5–3) after stringing together three straight wins at home.
Ole Miss, representing the SEC, came out of the gates firing with a perfect 5–0 start. But once the schedule toughened, the Rebels hit a wall. They’ve dropped three consecutive games, falling to Iowa, Utah, and most recently Miami, 75–66, with the Hurricanes handing them their first home loss of the season.
St. John’s enters the matchup still searching for consistency after an up-and-down opening stretch. Last season’s group looked built for a deep March run, finishing 30–4 and claiming a No. 2 seed before Arkansas sent them packing in the second round. Rick Pitino’s squad is now trying to build toward another postseason push, but at 4–3, the Red Storm have stumbled more than expected, losing two of their last three. Their latest setback came against Auburn, an 85–74 defeat in the consolation round of the Players Era Championship in Las Vegas.
