Season

The Rebels played their home games at the Tad Smith Coliseum

The Rebels began their season on November 2 with an exhibition game against Division II Delta State, who they soundly defeated 110-65.

Non-conference slate

On November 10, the Rebels hosted Mississippi Valley State for their season opener. They defeated the Delta Devils comfortably, 97-63. In his debut, freshman Trevor Gaskins scored seven three-pointers, one shy of the school record set by Keith Carter. Three days later, the Rebels hosted South Alabama. Despite holding a 22-point lead in the first half, the Jaguars of South Alabama nearly came back, however, Ole Miss, largely led by Eniel Polynice's 28-point performance, held them off, winning 81-78. Ole Miss continued with a string of dominant home victories, with a 108-70 win against Lamar on November 16, a 94-70 win against Louisiana–Monroe on November 24, and a 102-76 win against Troy on November 27. Following the 85-77 win against also-unbeaten New Mexico on December 1, the Rebels were off to their first 6-0 start since the 2000–01 season, who started the season 11-0.

On December 8, the Rebels took to the road for the first time, traveling to the newly-constructed UCF Arena in Orlando, Florida, to take on UCF. The Rebels held the lead the entire game, giving the Knights their first loss in their new arena. Ole Miss then traveled to the state capital, Jackson, for the first time since 1989 to play Winthrop at the Mississippi Coliseum, where they defeated the Eagles by a score of 76-71 after trailing by as much as 7 in the second half.

San Juan Shootout

The Rebels traveled to the Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, for the 2007 San Juan Shootout. Their first game was on December 20 against DePaul. Despite trailing 31-27 in the first half, the Rebels prevailed, 69-63, in a game that saw 11 lead changes between the two teams. Ole Miss held the Blue Demons to only six field goals in the second half, with none scored in the final nine minutes. The following day, Ole Miss defeated La Salle by a score of 84-77, despite blowing a 42-29 halftime lead and allowing the Explorers to take the lead several times in the second half.

In the final, the Rebels took on their first ranked opponent of the season, No. 15 Clemson, who were also unbeaten up to this point. The Rebels started the game with an 8-2 scoring run en route to a 48-40 halftime lead. Clemson, however, took the lead, 54-53, with 13 minutes left in the second half. An 8-point unanswered scoring run by Ole Miss would reclaim them the lead, 80-78, with under three minutes to go. They wouldn't relinquish it and won the game by a score of 85-83, marking Ole Miss' eleventh straight victory and starting the season 11-0 for only the third time in the franchise's history.

Following their Puerto Rico tour, now-ranked Ole Miss traveled to the DeSoto Civic Center in Southaven, Mississippi on December 28, to take on Southern Miss. They soundly defeated the Golden Eagles, 78-58, and became the first Rebels team to start a season 12-0. For their final game before SEC conference play and their first game of the new year, Ole Miss hosted Alabama A&M on January 2. The Rebels thoroughly defeated the Bulldogs, 87-50, to break the record for longest consecutive win streak in Rebel basketball history.

Early conference matchups

Now one of the NCAA's last six undefeated teams, Ole Miss traveled to the Food City Center in Knoxville, Tennessee on January 9, to take on No. 8 Tennessee. Down by 12 with eleven minutes left in the second half, the Rebels took an 83-79 lead late in the game. The Volunteers came back and tied it at 83. With 4.2 seconds left in the game, Tyler Smith hit a lay-up to give Tennessee the 83-85 victory and hand Ole Miss their first loss. The Rebels bounced back after this loss, defeating LSU 74-71 on January 12, and Florida 89-97 on January 16, their first win against the Gators since 2002.

The Rebels then embarked on a two-game road trip, first against Auburn at the Beard–Eaves–Memorial Coliseum in Auburn, Alabama on January 19. After a neck-and-neck game, the Rebels lost to the Tigers, 77-80. Seven days later, the Rebels traveled to in-state rivals Mississippi State at the Humphrey Coliseum in Starkville. The Bulldogs dominated the Rebels, winning by a score of 68-88.

The Rebels returned back to Oxford and faced No. 19 Vanderbilt on January 30, defeating the slumping Commodores with a commanding 74-58 victory. Three days later, the Rebels hosted South Carolina. Ole Miss trailed for most of the game, but took a 77-75 lead late in the game. The Gamecocks tied it 77-77, before Gamecock forward Dominique Archie scored the game-winning three-pointer with 5.9 seconds left, giving South Carolina the 77-80 upset. The woes continued for Ole Miss, after travelling to Bud Walton Arena in Fayetteville, Arkansas on February 9, to take on Arkansas. The Rebels nearly came back from their early 14-point deficit, but were ultimately defeated 69-75.

Later conference matchups

Two days removed from their loss at Arkansas, Ole Miss hosted Presbyterian in their final non-conference game of the year. The Rebels won convincingly by a score of 66-55, making Ole Miss undefeated in the regular season against its non-conference opponents. Two days later, the Rebels traveled to the Coleman Coliseum to take on Alabama in Tuscaloosa. The Rebels were shut down on the court, trailing by as much as 14 as the Crimson Tide won 67-76.

On February 16, Ole Miss hosted Auburn for their second match-up of the season. Despite leading 43-42 at half-time, the Rebels lost 78-90, giving Auburn the season sweep. However, their fortunes changed four days later when they faced off against Mississippi State at home, defeating them 74-63 to split the season series against them. Despite this victory, Ole Miss dropped their next two: losing 49-69 against LSU on February 23 at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center in Baton Rouge to split the season series, and then dropping another against Kentucky at the Rupp Arena in Lexington, by a score of 54-58.

For their final homestand, Ole Miss hosted Alabama on March 1, narrowly defeating the tide 91-88 after a missed Crimson Tide three-pointer, thereby splitting the season series. Three days later, they hosted Arkansas in the nationally-televised Super Tuesday game, where they defeated the Tigers 81-72, splitting that season series as well. For their final regular season of the game, the Rebels traveled to Stegeman Coliseum to take on Georgia in Athens on March 8. With their 76-62 victory, the Rebels won their first and only road conference victory of the season.

Postseason

SEC conference tournament

The Georgia Dome in 2008, where the SEC conference tournament was held

The Rebels entered the 2008 SEC men's basketball tournament with a 21–9 record, good for the third seed in the western division. This placed them against the eastern division's sixth-seed, Georgia, in the first round. Five days prior, the Rebels had soundly defeated the Bulldogs by 14 points, however, this postseason matchup was much more competitive. Trailing 81–84 in the second half, Rebels guard David Huertas made three free throws to send the game into overtime. With five seconds left in overtime, guard Chris Warren also sank three free throws to tie the game at 95 apiece. However, with just 0.4 seconds left on the clock, Georgia center Dave Bliss made a 10-foot jumper, advancing Georgia to the second round. The Bulldogs eventually won the tournament, securing a bid to the 2008 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament.

National Invitation Tournament

Madison Square Garden, where the semifinals and finals of the NIT were held

After not receiving a bid to the 2008 NCAA tournament, the Rebels accepted a bid to participate in the 2008 National Invitation Tournament, where they would play as a second seed. On March 19, in the first round of the tournament, Ole Miss defeated visiting UC Santa Barbara, 83–68, coming back from a 6–17 deficit early in the first quarter.

The Rebels' second round matchup pitted them against third-seeded Nebraska. While Nebraska trailed for most of regulation, they tied up the game at 70 with 39 seconds left, bringing the game to overtime. The Rebels commanded the overtime period, however, with Zach Warren scoring 10 points as they defeated the Huskers, 85–75.

Following the win, the Rebels traveled to Blacksburg, Virginia, for a quarterfinal matchup against the one-seed, Virginia Tech. With 10:49 left in the second half, the Rebels led 51–49 before a 9–0 scoring run in the following two minutes. Following that, the lead never got below seven points, and the Rebels finished with the upset win, defeating the Hokies, 81–72, led in large part by Chris Warren's 22-point performance. This win, the 24th of the season, put the 2007–08 Rebels as the second-winningest season in the history of the team to that point.

Following their victory in Blacksburg, the Rebels traveled to Madison Square Garden in New York City for their semifinal matchup against Ohio State. The team struggled in the first half of the game, trailing by a deficit of 24 at halftime. While in the second half the Rebels narrowed the gap, the closest the Rebels ever got to reclaiming the lead was when they trailed 68–75 with 1:32 remaining in the second half. The game ended 69–81, with Ohio State eventually winning the tournament.
