No. 8 Tennessee Lady Vols basketball vs. Ole Miss: Live updates, score

The Tennessee Lady Vols look to keep their undefeated SEC start alive on the road against Ole Miss Sunday (1 p.m., SEC Network).

The No. 8 Lady Vols have defeated Alabama, Arkansas and Texas A&M to start conference play. The Rebels present the biggest challenge in the paint for Tennessee yet with 6-5 center Shakira Austin, who is projected to be a first round WNBA draft pick.

"You've got an all-conference player in Austin, and she's a tough matchup for us," Tennessee coach Kellie Harper. "She has great size, but she has the skill set to be able to come out on the floor."
