Prediction
The Rebels are a two-score favorite in this game, but given their disappointing game last week, there is some caution with backing them this weekend. Instead, we will be looking at Ole Miss to cover in the first quarter. Ole Miss has won the first quarter by at least four points in all five of their games, therefore backing the same here will be our best bet as they tend to start very quickly with their high-powered offense.
Final Pick
Ole Miss Rebels -3.5 1st Quarter (-102)
