At 12-7 ATS this season, the Aggies have played well against the spread. In their last 10 games, they have been underdogs 3 times are are 2-1 ATS in that span.

The Bulldogs lost to Georgia 58-50, failing to cover as a 2.5-point road favorite Wednesday. They are 6-9-1 ATS on the season and 1-6 ATS over their last 7. Mississippi State’s strength is defense as well, ranking 5th in the nation in opponents’ points per game (56.8).

Mississippi State at Auburn picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 68, Mississippi State 58

Moneyline

AVOID.

Auburn is 9-0 at home, so its (-360) odds to just win outright are justified and still unplayable. Both sides of the moneyline are a pass.

Against the spread

LEAN AUBURN -7.5 (-110).

The Bulldogs have struggled in conference play, posting just a 1-3 ATS record. The Tigers, while not much better, are 2-2- ATS and have covered 2 in a row.

They also have a better attack, ranking 227th in field goal percentage (43.8%) which is significantly better than Mississippi State, which is 330th at 41.1%.

Both teams thrive defensively, and the Tigers’ ability to score mixed with their record success should make AUBURN -7.5 (-110) the better option here.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 128.5 (-110).

While this feels low, Mississippi State has gone Under in 4 of its last 5 games with a total in the 120s. It is 2-5 O/U in its last 7 and 4-12 O/U this season.

The Bulldogs rank 12th in the nation in opponents’ field goal percentage (38.2%). The Tigers are also strong defensively and have gone Under in 2 of their last 4 games.

Mississippi State may not have the offense to keep pace, and with both teams thriving on defense, back the UNDER 128.5 (-110).

Auburn at Ole Miss odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Auburn at Ole Miss odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 22 Auburn Tigers (12-3, 2-1 SEC) meet the Ole Miss Rebels (8-7, 0-3) Tuesday at The Sandy and John Black Pavilion at Ole Miss in Oxford, Miss. Tip-off is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET (ESPNU). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Auburn vs. Ole Miss odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Rankings courtesy of the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.

The Tigers rebounded from a stunning 76-64 loss at Georgia Wednesday, toppling Arkansas by a 72-59 score last time out in a battle of ranked teams on Saturday. Auburn grabbed the cover as a 2.5-point favorite too, but it is still just 3-7 ATS across the past 10 games overall.

The Rebels were dropped 64-54 by rival Mississippi State in Stark Vegas on Saturday, their 3rd straight loss to open the SEC schedule. Ole Miss has also lost 4 in a row overall, including an embarrassing 66-65 loss to North Alabama on Dec. 20 as a 23-point favorite. The Under has hit in 5 in a row for the Rebels.

Auburn at Ole Miss picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 72, Ole Miss 63

Moneyline

The moneyline is OTB at the time of publishing.

However, Auburn should open as a short favorite based on the spread and isn’t a bad play if you don’t want to fiddle around with the points and just want to declare a winner.

The Tigers are the ranked team and they’re playing way better basketball than their counterparts. It’s rather surprising that this line isn’t much, much higher.

Against the spread

AUBURN -2.5 (-105) is a great play on the road.

The Tigers are just 2-5 ATS in the past 7 against teams with a winning overall record. However, the Rebels are 1-4-1 ATS in the past 6 games overall and 1-6-2 ATS in the past 9 against winning teams.

Auburn showed some signs of life in a win against a very good Arkansas team Saturday, proving that this team can be elite when it’s locked in. Ole Miss isn’t close to being on the same plane.

Over/Under

OVER 132.5 (-110) is the lean but go with a half-unit play at best.

It’s all about the Over for Auburn lately, going 6-2 in the past 8 games overall and 4-0 in the past 4 road games.

However, the Under is 5-0 in the past 5 games for Ole Miss, while going 4-1 in the past 5 following a non-cover and 4-0 in the past 4 following a SU loss.

Arkansas at Auburn odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Arkansas at Auburn odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 13 Arkansas Razorbacks (12-2, 1-1 SEC) make their way to Alabama to take on the No. 20 Auburn Tigers (11-3, 1-1) Saturday at 8:30 p.m. ET (SEC Network). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Arkansas vs. Auburn odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

After a 60-57 loss to LSU in its conference opener, No. 13 Arkansas came back in its last outing with a 74-68 victory against Missouri Wednesday. This came despite playing without likely 2023 NBA lottery pick Nick Smith Jr., who missed with a knee issue, and he’s out indefinitely.

Auburn, already with 3 losses this season, including a 76-64 loss to Georgia Wednesday, will look to improve at home in this game. Coach Bruce Pearl and the Tigers, averaging 72.1 points will need to produce against an Arkansas defense ranked in the top-40 in the nation, that allows only 62.2 points.

Arkansas at Auburn picks and predictions

Prediction

Arkansas 68, Auburn 65

Moneyline

ARKANSAS +120 is the wager to make in this game.

Auburn is not the team it was last season when it went 28-6. Arkansas is without Smith Jr., but it will have enough in freshman Anthony Black and transfer Ricky Council IV. This duo will win this game for the Razorbacks and with Arkansas being the underdog, I will take on the moneyline.

Against the spread

No play is the right play with Arkansas being the winning team.

Taking Arkansas -2.5 (-110) is a safe way to play this. But I would rather take the Hogs on the ML and not wager on the spread.

PASS.

Over/Under

UNDER 140.5 (-105) in this showdown at Auburn is the way to go.

Arkansas averages more than 77 points, and Auburn averages 72. Both defenses are top-40 in the nation with Arkansas allowing 62.2 points allowed and the Tigers not far behind at 62.8. This will become a defensive battle for the win, and this means the Under is the play.

Auburn at Georgia odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Auburn Tigers at Georgia Bulldogs odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 20 Auburn Tigers (11-2, 1-0 SEC) visit Athens to take on the Georgia Bulldogs (10-3, 0-0) Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. ET (SEC Network). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Auburn vs. Georgia odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

While Auburn does not have the star power of last year’s 28-6 team, the Tigers are still a quality tournament team if they remain on the same track. G Wendell Green leads the team with 12.7 points per game and F Johni Broome leads with 8.4 rebounds. Auburn failed to cover a 5.5-point spread at home Dec. 28 in a 61-58 win over Florida.

Georgia is led by G Kario Oquendo, who leads the team with 14.3 PPG in 10 games played, and G Terry Roberts at 14.2 PPG. It last played Dec. 28, beating Rider 78-72, but failing to cover as a 9.5-point favorite.

Ole Miss at Alabama picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 72, Georgia 63

Moneyline

PASS.

Georgia plays its 1st SEC game and looks to defeat a top-25 team in Auburn. This will be a challenging task and this Georgia team is not up to it. Auburn will win and as -300 favorites, it is not worth a straight wager.

Against the spread

BET AUBURN -6.5 (-115).

Auburn is the better and more balanced team in this game. Coach Bruce Pearl will have the Tigers ready to try once again to take command of the SEC and make a run in the NCAA Tournament. While Georgia is getting better, it is still not to the level of Auburn and the Tigers will pull away at the end. Give me Auburn -6.5 (-115) as my favorite play.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 135.5 (-105).

Whether this game goes Over or Under, will be a close call as both teams can score, but both teams can also hit dry spells. Coming off the New Year break, these teams could come out a bit sluggish and it will not be until the 2nd half that they get going. So I will take the UNDER 135.5 (-105).

Rankings courtesy of the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.

The Gators have had a tough time of it lately, dropping 2 of the last 3 games, while going just 5-5 SU in the previous 10 outings. Florida has managed a dismal 4-7 ATS mark in the last 11 games, too. The Under is 4-0 in the last 4 games.

The Tigers rebounded from a 74-71 loss at USC, taking out its frustration on Washington in an 84-61 win in Seattle last Wednesday, easily covering as a 3-point favorite. Quite the opposite of Florida, the Over has cashed in 5 in a row for Auburn.

Prediction

Auburn 79, Florida 64

Moneyline

PASS. Don’t even think about it.

Against the spread

AUBURN -5.5 (-110) is a strong play, especially playing on its home floor in the Southeastern Conference opener.

Florida +5.5 (-110) has struggled against the number lately, going 5-11 ATS in the last 16 games overall, while cashing just 1-5 ATS in the last 6 games on the road. The Gators are also a dismal 3-14 ATS in the last 17 contests against teams with a winning overall record, too.

The home team is 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings in this series, while the favorite has cashed at an 8-2 ATS clip in the previous 10 meetings.

Over/Under

OVER 141.5 (-110) is the lean, but go lightly, with a half-unit play at best.

The Over has hit in 5 in a row for Auburn. And while the Under has dominated for Florida lately, the Over is 5-2 in the last 7 games following a straight-up loss.

Auburn is playing its 2nd straight road game against a Pac-12 opponent after losing 74-71 as a 1.5-point favorite Sunday to USC in Los Angeles.

After a 77-60 loss to Gonzaga, Washington has won 2 straight. It edged Cal Poly 74-68 and then crushed Idaho State 90-55 on Saturday, easily covering the 15.5-point spread.

Both teams need the victory to boost the resume for March Madness as this would be a quality Quad 1 win for either team.

Auburn at Washington picks and predictions

Prediction

Washington 65, Auburn 59

Moneyline

BET WASHINGTON +140.

While Auburn may be ranked, the Tigers are coming into this game after a tough loss to USC and 2 straight road games on the West Coast is a challenging task for an Auburn team which hadn’t played a true road game before Sunday.

After blasting Idaho State by 35, the Huskies will be ready for this challenge. With Washington being the underdogs here, I would rather take the +140 on the moneyline to make a bit more money.

Against the spread

PASS.

As I am wagering on the underdog Washington to win this game, I would rather not worry about the spread. If you want to hedge your bet, you can take half, place it on the ML, take the other half, and place it on Washington +3.5 (-105).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 138.5 (-110).

Auburn will be a bit tired playing its 2nd road game in 4 days. Scoring could be an issue for the Tigers and Washington will not need to put up 90 as it did in its prior game against Idaho State. This game has mid 60’s written all over it so I will take the Under 138.5 (-110).

Auburn at USC odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Auburn at USC odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 19 Auburn Tigers (9-1) travel to Los Angeles to take on the USC Trojans (8-3) Sunday at 5:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Auburn at USC odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Rankings courtesy of the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.

Losing Jabari Smith Jr. to the NBA (No. 3 overall pick) from an Auburn team that went 28-6 and 15-3 in the SEC was supposed to be devastating for the Tigers. But they have talent and been able to remain a top-20 team under coach Bruce Pearl. After suffering its lone loss to Memphis 82-73, Auburn beat Georgia State 72-64 on Wednesday, but did not cover (-20.5).

USC is counting on the home-court advantage in this tough matchup since this is the 1st true road game of the season for Auburn. The Tigers are 7-0 at home and 2-1 in neutral court games. USC has won 4 in a row after beating Long Beach State 88-78 on Wednesday, but it did not cover as 11.5-point favorites at home.

Auburn at USC picks and predictions

Prediction

USC 71, Auburn 65

Moneyline

BET USC -105.

Auburn is a good team, but not as good as last season. This is also the 1st road game for the Tigers and a difficult 1 in Los Angeles. USC has the talent to win this game. It will not be overmatched and after a soft early schedule for Auburn, this will be a test they will not pass. Since USC in the underdog, I will take them moneyline at -105 rather then using the 1.5 points it’s getting on the spread.

Against the spread

PASS.

If you think Auburn is going to be able to go on the road and win this game, the spread is the way to go to get 1.5 points at even money. But I think the Trojans will defend the home court so I would rather make a play on the ML.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 140.5 (-115).

Only 10 of the 21 games played this season by the 2 teams have hit the Over. Both teams would prefer to pace this game in the 60’s and despite the game being close down the stretch, I do not see it getting much higher. This will be a Sunday matinee in which both teams get in and out and the score will be lower then expected. I like the Under 140.5 (-115) to hit here.

Auburn at Alabama odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Auburn at Alabama odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Auburn Tigers (5-6, 2-5 SEC) will be in Tuscaloosa for a challenge against the No. 7 Alabama Crimson Tide (9-2, 5-2) for the latest edition of the Iron Bowl Saturday at 3:30 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Auburn vs. Alabama odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

When it comes to the Iron Bowl, you throw out the records. Considered one of the best rivalries in college football, Auburn and Alabama want to crush the other into oblivion, especially this one week of the year.

In 2021, Auburn almost knocked Alabama from a playoff spot but came up short in a 4-overtime, 24-22 loss. Most remember the “kick 6” in 2013 when Auburn CB Chris Davis returned an Alabama missed 57-yard field-goal attempt for a touchdown on the final play of a 34-28 Tigers victory. Davis caught the ball in front of the goal posts, but it was considered a 100-yard return according to NCAA rules. This game is always contentious and rarely does it disappoint those who watch.

Saturday, Alabama hopes to keep its slim playoff chance alive. While the Tide are No. 7 in the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY sports, they’re also 7th in the College Football Playoff Rankings. They have to jump 3 teams to get into the desired top 4 for the playoffs.

Auburn is looking to win one for interim coach — former player and fan favorite — Cadillac Williams, who moved into the position from running backs coach when Bryan Harsin was fired in late October after a 3-5 start. Williams has brought a sense of confidence and determination to the Tigers, something which was severely lacking in recent years. Unfortunately for Auburn fans, this confidence may not be enough vs. Alabama with the Tigers down several offensive linemen and a defense which has struggled all season.

Auburn at Alabama picks and predictions

Prediction

Alabama 33, Auburn 26

Moneyline

PASS.

Alabama (-2000) is far too expensive of a ML favorite to wager on. Auburn (+950) offers excellent value, and I’m willing to put $10 on it for fun — it would profit $95 — but it’s not likely to hit. The smarter bets would be on the spread or total in this game.

Against the spread

BET AUBURN +22.5 (-110).

No matter how good or bad these teams are, this game is a challenge. It leads to pride in the state and both teams want to beat the other.

In 2021, as 20.5-point underdogs, the Tigers took the eventual national runner-up Crimson Tide to 4 overtimes before a decision not to go for a 2-point conversion cost the Tigers a chance at victory.

While this game may not be as thrilling as 2021, Auburn will play hard for coach Williams and will keep this one closer than the experts think. AUBURN +22.5 (-110) is my FAVORITE PLAY in this matchup.

Over/Under

BET OVER 49.5 (-111)

In 3 of the last 5 head-to-head meeting, this total would have hit. Last season’s 24-22 game is 1 of the 2 which would not despite going to 4 overtimes.

But both teams are different this season. The normally stout Alabama defense is lacking bite this season and Auburn, due to bad recruiting and injury, lacks a strong defense, too.

QB Bryce Young and DE Will Anderson, both juniors, are likely playing their final game at Alabama. Without a playoff berth, it’s possible both sit out a bowl game. While not seniors, both will want to star in their final dances at Tuscaloosa in front of the home fans.

Alabama scoring in the 30’s to 40’s is not out of the question. Auburn is less of a certainty to score, but with the emotion in this game, I’m going to venture that the Tigers will keep up for a while.

Give me OVER 49.5 (-111) to hit in this one.

Auburn vs. Bradley picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 76, Bradley 65

Moneyline

Bradley (+525) is the lean at this price point, but only a profitable one closer to +700.

STEER CLEAR.

Against the spread

Auburn will look to go fast. It will miss some 3s and turn the ball over. Bradley is responsible with the basketball and avoiding giving up too many offensive rebounds and free throws will be big keys.

The Braves have already played a few fast teams and will be the toughest team Auburn has played thus far. Looking under the hood, a couple of the Tigers’ cruise-control games weren’t quite that in the way they played out.

Figure enough of a chance that Bradley stays within 10. BACK THE BRAVES +12.5 (-105).

Over/Under

Peg the AU defense as being due for some regression and Bradley being able to keep the Tigers engaged until late.

BACK THE OVER 137.5 (-110).
