Ole Miss will begin a home-and-home series against Virginia Tech in the 2016-17 season with a Dec. 11 road game against the Hokies and then host in 2017-18.

The Rebels are 2-1 against Virginia Tech with the first game coming in 1980 and the most recent an 81-72 road win in the NIT in 2007-08 when the Rebels made the semifinals.

The Hokies finished 20-15 last season after losing to BYU in the second round of the NIT. They return their top four scorers after they finished seventh in the ACC last season.

The Rebels were 20-12 and didn’t play in the postseason.

They will also be in the second year of a four-year series against Memphis and in the first year of a four-year series against Middle Tennessee State this season.

Ole Miss will also host Montana on Thanksgiving and Baylor on Jan. 28 in the Big 12/SEC Challenge and then travel to the Paradise Jam in the U.S. Virgin Islands in November. The Rebels will host to UT-Martin and UMass its first two games of the season.
