Southern at Ole Miss picks and predictions

Prediction

Ole Miss 87, Southern 58

Moneyline

PASS.

Ole Miss is such a heavy favorite in this matchup that the moneyline is OTB at BetMGM Sportsbook.

Against the spread

BET OLE MISS -24.5 (-110).

Ole Miss has covered the spread in 8 of its last 10 games. It has covered 7 consecutive games overall and 4 straight as a favorite. Ole Miss has covered 4 of its last 5 games as a favorite of 21.5 or more points, including 2 straight. The Rebels have been exceeding expectations against weaker competition and will continue that trend Tuesday.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 144.5 (-110).

The Rebels have scored 84 or more points in 5 of their last 7 games and also allowed 63 or more in 5 of the 7. Expect the Ole Miss offense to add enough toward the total to hit the Over.

The biggest question lingering for the confidence of this wager is if Southern will be able to contribute enough offensively.

The Golden Eagles will not be able to score enough to hit the Over in this matchup. They have scored 66 or fewer points in 3 of their last 5 games.

Ole Miss at Louisville odds, picks and predictions

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

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Ole Miss Rebels (6-1) and Louisville Cardinals (5-2) meet for a 9 p.m. ET (ACC Network) Tuesday game at the KFC Yum! Center. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Ole Miss vs. Louisville odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

Ole Miss — No. 20 in the USA TODAY Sports Men’s Basketball Coaches Poll —  was undefeated until falling 80-78 to Purdue in the championship game of the Rady Children’s Invitational (San Diego) Friday. A Myles Colvin putback on a final-seconds missed jumper sealed the win for the Boilermakers and marked the Rebels’ first November loss since Nov. 27, 2022. Mississippi was a +3 against PU and has won 4 in a row against the spread (ATS).

Louisville had a 4-game win streak snapped Friday vs. Oklahoma. The favored-by-3 Cardinals were defeated 69-64 in the title game of the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament in Nassau, Bahamas. UL was undone by shooting just 21.9% from 3-point range and 56.3% from the free-throw line.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Ole Miss at Louisville picks and predictions

Prediction

Louisville 79, Ole Miss 78

Moneyline

No interest. PASS.

Against the spread

Louisville is 2-6 ATS in its last 8 games at home.

Mississippi has been solid enough against top-third foes, and UM’s 40.3% 3-point shooting away from Oxford (3 neutral-site games) is an intriguing stat. The much smaller rebels likely won’t find much success against UL inside.

Louisville’s distance shooting has been quite bad. The Cardinals’ 28.7% mark from beyond the arc ranks 297th in the nation.

UL’s attention may be a couple days down the road on a Sunday home game against Duke.

Consider a partial-unit play on OLE MISS +2.5 (-105).

Over/Under

The Over has cashed in 4 consecutive Ole Miss games and in 4 out of the Rebels’ last 5 on the road.

Fast-paced Louisville has played with some Under tilt (7-1 to the Under), but the OVER 151.5 (-115) is the value side here. Both teams are quite good in getting quick looks off turnovers, and a decent number of tosses from the charity stripe figure to be in the mix.

There is the chance distance-heavy Louisville catches fire and gets a lot in 3-by-3 fashion, and UM’s accuracy mark has to be considered. Also consider both sides logged some tough games (including overtime contests) last week. Tired legs make for slow-by-a-step defenders.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 24 Ole Miss Rebels (6-0) and the No. 12 Purdue Boilermakers (6-1) meet Friday in the championship game of the Rady Children’s Invitational. Tip-off from LionTree Arena in San Diego is set for 6 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Ole Miss vs. Purdue odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

Ole Miss picked up a 96-85 win in OT Thursday as a 2.5-point underdog while the Over (153) cashed. The Rebels are 2-0 straight up (SU) and against the spread (ATS) in 2 neutral-floor games, while cashing in each of the past 3 outings. The Over is also 3-0 in the past 3 contests.

For Purdue, it outlasted NC State 71-61 in the tournament opener Thursday as a 5.5-point favorite, covering in consecutive games for the first time this season. The Boilermakers are 2-0 SU/ATS in 2 games since getting spanked at Marquette Nov. 19. The Under has cashed in 3 straight outings.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Ole Miss vs. Purdue picks and predictions

Prediction

Purdue 83, Ole Miss 75

Moneyline

PURDUE (-160) is worth a look as moderate favorites if you’re super conservative and don’t want to fiddle around with the points.

Ole Miss (+135) hasn’t been tested too much, but in its toughest game against BYU Thursday, it passed the test in overtime. It remains to be seen if the Rebels can get the job done against 2 power conference teams in a row, and until it proves it is more than just a mid-tier SEC team, let’s back the national runners-up.

Against the spread

Side with PURDUE -2.5 (-115) laying the little bit of points.

The Boilermakers are the more battle-tested team, having already faced Alabama, Marquette and NC State, with only the hiccup against the Golden Eagles.

Purdue is 3-1 ATS in the past 4 games, and it covered in the only previous game as a single-digit favorite, and that was last time out against NC State.

Over/Under

OVER 144.5 (-115) might be the best play on the board.

There is risk, as the Under has cashed in 3 straight games. However, the Over has connected in 3 in a row for Ole Miss, averaging 98.0 PPG in the past 2 outings.

Mississippi State at Ole Miss odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Mississippi State at Ole Miss odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Mississippi State Bulldogs (2-9, 0-7 SEC) and No. 16 Ole Miss Rebels (8-3, 4-3) meet Friday. Kickoff from Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford, Miss. is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET (ABC/ESPN+). Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s college football odds around the Mississippi State vs. Ole Miss odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

Ole Miss leads the all-time series 65-47-6, with the road team winning the past 3 meetings outright.

Ole Miss won the “Egg Bowl” last season by a 17-7 score in Stark Vegas, covering as 9-point favorites. The Under has cashed in each of the past 7 meetings, and 9 of the 10 battles since 2014.

While Mississippi State doesn’t have a lot of wins under its belt, topping just the FCS Eastern Kentucky Colonels and UMass Minutemen. However, the Bulldogs are an impressive 5-2 against the spread (ATS) in the past 7 games, while the Over has hit in 5 of the past 6 games, and 7-2 in the previous 9 outings.

Ole Miss all but likely saw its playoff hopes go up in smoke with a 24-17 loss last week at the Florida Gators as a 13-point underdog. However, it still has 8 victories, and a win in the Egg Bowl, with 9 total wins, will land Ole Miss a pretty strong bowl. The Under has cashed in 9 of the past 10 contests.

Mississippi State at Ole Miss picks and predictions

Prediction

Ole Miss 36, Mississippi State 19

Moneyline

Ole Miss (-4000) will set you back 40 times your potential return, and that’s way too much risk and not enough reward in a rivalry game.

The Rebels have 8 victories this season, enter with a ranking, and they’ve won 3 of the past 4 in this series. However, it’s a rivalry game which has been very balanced in previous seasons, even when the records might not quite match up.

PASS.

Against the spread

Back MISSISSIPPI STATE +26.5 (-115), as that is a lot of points in a rivalry game.

The favorite cashed last season, but the underdog is 3-1 ATS in the past 4 meetings in this series, including 2 outright wins in the past 3 battles. The ‘dog is 5-3 ATS in the past 8 in the series, too, with Mississippi State holding a 4-3-1 ATS edge in that 8-game span.

Over/Under

UNDER 61.5 (-110) is worth a play in this series. The total has ended up going low in 7 straight battles in the series, while going 9-1 in the past 10 since 2014.

Be careful, though, as Ole Miss has cashed high on the total in 5 of the past 6 games. However, the Under has hit in a 2 in a row for Mississippi State, while going 9-1 in the previous 10 outings.

The BYU Cougars (5-0) battle the No. 24 Ole Miss Rebels (5-0) Thursday in the Rady Children’s Invitational. Tip from LionTree Arena in San Diego is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. ET (FS1). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the BYU vs. Ole Miss odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

BYU remained undefeated after demolishing Mississippi Valley State 87-43 Saturday but failing to cover as a 45-point home favorite as the Under (144) cashed. C Fousseyni Traore recorded a double-double, finishing with 15 points and 11 rebounds, both game-highs.

Ole Miss also is undefeated, recently routing Oral Roberts 100-68 Nov. 21, covering as a 21.5-point home favorite with the Over (149.5) hitting. G Sean Pedulla and G Matthew Murrell each scored a game-high 19 points in the win.

The other 2 teams in this holiday tournament are No. 12 Purdue and NC State. Thursday’s 2 winners will meet Friday in the Championship Game; likewise for the losers in Friday’s consolation game.

Ole Miss has scored 84 or more points in 3 of its 5 games, including in its last 2 outings. Defensively, the Rebels haven’t allowed more than 69 points in each of their 5 games.

They may be the underdogs here, but the Rebels have the offensive firepower to flourish against the Cougars, who have allowed 71 or more points in 2 of their last 4 games.

Against the spread

PASS.

The moneyline for Ole Miss has better value.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 151.5 (-110).

The best way for the Rebels to win Thursday is to shut down the Cougars’ offense. While BYU has scored 86 or more points in each of its game this season, the Cougars have not faced an opponent the caliber of the Rebels. In what will be a back-and-forth battle — with the highest O/U line in an Ole Miss game so far this season — UNDER 151.5 (-110) is a solid play.

Ole Miss at Florida odds, picks and predictions

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 9 Ole Miss Rebels (8-2, 4-2 SEC) meet the Florida Gators (5-5, 3-4) at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium Saturday. Kickoff is scheduled for noon ET (ABC). Below, we look at Ole Miss vs. Florida odds from BetMGM Sportsbook’s college football odds and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

Ole Miss secured its third straight win, defeating No. 8 Georgia 28-10 Nov. 9 in its biggest game of the season. The Rebels won outright as 2-point home underdogs, with the Under (55.5) hitting. While Ole Miss’ defense stole the show, forcing 3 turnovers, QB Jaxson Dart was 13-of-22 passing for 199 yards with a TD and an INT and rushed for 50 yards on 8 carries.

The Gators faced 3 ranked opponents in a row, including 2 in the top 10. After losing the first 2, they defeated the then-No. 22 LSU Tigers 27-16 as 3.5-point home underdogs Nov. 16 while the Under (57) hit. QB DJ Lagway and WR Elijhah Badger connected 6 times for 131 yards and a TD. RB Jadan Baugh averaged 10.8 yards per carry and scored a TD in the victory.

Ole Miss at Florida picks and predictions

Prediction

Ole Miss 31, Florida 21

Moneyline

PASS.

Ole Miss (-450) takes this game Saturday, but instead of laying more than 1:4, I’ll take my bet to the spread.

Against the spread

BET FLORIDA +11.5 (-110).

After a huge emotional win against Georgia, Ole Miss may face a letdown at Florida. The Rebels are on fire, with Dart playing at a high level, and they’ll exploit Florida’s vulnerability to the passing game.

However, the Gators, led by Lagway, have shown improvement and consistency on offense. While Ole Miss is likely to win, Florida’s strong play, especially at home, will keep the game close. Florida is 6-1 ATS in its last 7 games and has covered the last 2 meetings.

The Rebels are 3-3 ATS in their last 6 games.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 55.5 (-110).

The Gators have exceeded 20 points just 3 times in 7 conference games this season.

Ole Miss has hit the Under in 8 of 10 games, while Florida sits at 3-3 O/U. Ole Miss boasts one of the nation’s top defenses, allowing under 13 points per game overall and under 18 against SEC teams.

Florida’s offense, with a freshman QB, has struggled to score against stronger defenses, and this should continue against Ole Miss. Only 1 of Ole Miss’ 6 conference games has gone over 55.5 this season.

The Oral Roberts Golden Eagles (2-3) and Ole Miss Rebels (4-0) meet Thursday in Oxford. The opening tip at the Sandy and John Black Pavilion will be at 8 p.m. ET (ESPN+).

The Golden Eagles head to Oxford after a 90-80 loss at Belmont Tuesday. The 9.5-point-underdog ORU squad was outrebounded 35-27, and host Belmont shot 52.5% from the floor.

Ole Miss is coming off its best game of the young season. On Saturday, the Rebels covered as 6-point favorites in an 84-69 conquest over Colorado State. Mississippi logged a season-best 59.1% effective field-goal mark and was a turnover plus-10 in the home-away-from-home game played in Southaven, Miss.

Oral Roberts at Ole Miss picks and predictions

Prediction

Ole Miss 85, Oral Roberts 68

Moneyline

No interest. PASS.

Against the spread

Dating back to last season, Ole Miss is 1-6 ATS over its last 7 home games. When favored by 18 points or more at home, the Rebels are 1-6 ATS.

Mississippi is an undersized team that won’t blow away ORU inside. The Rebels get a big chunk of their points from beyond the arc. They have shot 35.2% on such looks, and the Eagles have allowed a 41.4% mark. Figure both ends being due for some regression.

Oral Roberts is solid enough on the boards and may well get some hidden points in the second-chance department.

Ole Miss plays at a slow pace and in 3 of its 4 games has not produced much, if any, point-differential daylight in endgame minutes.

The Rebels are much the better team, but the Eagles have enough of a shot at keeping the differential here in the teens.

TAKE ORAL ROBERTS +20.5 (-110).

Over/Under

The Over is 6-2 across Mississippi’s last 8 home games and 4-2-1 in the Eagles’ last 7 road games when ORU is getting 8 points or more.

Figure on some heat in the turnover/transition game for Ole Miss. And the last 2 times it was overmatched, ORU allowed a combined 57 looks at the free-throw line.

Peg the OVER 148.5 (-110) with a small-to-moderate lean.

South Alabama at Ole Miss odds, picks and predictions

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

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The South Alabama Jaguars (1-1) travel to Oxford to take on the Ole Miss Rebels (2-0) Tuesday at C. M. Tad Smith Coliseum. Tip time is will be at 8 p.m. ET (ESPN+). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the South Alabama vs. Ole Miss odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

South Alabama opened its season Nov. 4 with a 74-70 loss to the Central Michigan Chippewas, but then rebounded with a 70-64 win as a 5.5-point underdog Friday at the Nicholls State Colonels. In the Friday conquest, the Jaguars overcame a 33.3% mark from the field by getting to the foul line 30 times (and making 23 free throws).

Ole Miss overcame some dodgy shooting of its own in its last game, a 66-64 Friday win over the Grambling Tiers. The favored-by-23.5 Rebels shot just 35.4% in that game. UM prevailed by logging a plus-15 in turnovers and by holding the Tigers to just 4 offensive rebounds.

South Alabama at Ole Miss picks and predictions

Prediction

Ole Miss 83, South Alabama 68

Moneyline

No interest. The visiting 5 is a lean, but the return here is watered down by a lot of juice. AVOID.

Against the spread

South Alabama is 11-5 ATS in its last 16 games played in November. Ole Miss is 2-9 ATS across its last 11 games and 1-6 ATS in its last 7 at home.

South Alabama perhaps would have been a more attractive play here if the Rebels had not gotten a scare in their last outing, but the Jaguars are still a moderate lean with this spread. South Alabama figures has a veteran squad and figures to take good enough care of the basketball and avoid a big turnover deficit. Its also reasonable to project the Jaguars won’t get run off the floor in rebounding or free-throw frequency differentials. So, there are enough key points swaying this one into the neighborhood of a potential margin more in the 12-to-15-point range.

BACK THE JAGUARS +17.5 (-110).

Over/Under

The last 7 Ole Miss games have seen the Over go 5-2. In the Rebels’ last 4 games when tabbed as a double-digit favorite, the Over is 3-1.

Similar past road-dog games for South Alabama have seen higher totals, and the pace here could well be hotter than what shows in early-game possession numbers for each side. Plus, the Jaguars typically avoid lower-percentage mid-range looks and let it fly from distance. The Jaguars have attempted 29.0 3s per game so far.

BACK THE OVER 148.5 (-110).

Georgia at Ole Miss odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Georgia at Ole Miss odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs (7-1, 5-1 SEC) and the 12th-ranked Ole Miss Rebels (7-2, 3-2) hook up for a top-12 tussle in Oxford Saturday. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET (ABC) from Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s college football odds around Georgia vs. Ole Miss odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

Georgia beat rival Florida 34-20 last Saturday but came up short against the spread (ATS) as 14.5-point favorites on a neutral field in Jacksonville. The Bulldogs trailed 13-6 at the half, rallied for a 20-13 lead in the third quarter, and after the Gators tied it at 20-all with 7:29 to go, Georgia scored 2 TDs in the final 4:01.

Georgia at Ole Miss picks and predictions

Prediction

Georgia 27, Ole Miss 20

Moneyline

If the defending champs (-118) win, it be by more than 1.5 points, so no need to lay the extra juice compared to betting the spread. PASS.

Against the spread

Georgia smashed Ole Miss 52-17 last season (Nov. 11), covering an 11-point spread and outgaining the Rebels 611 yards to 352.

Peg UGA, which is 4-1 ATS over the last 5 series games, as being a tad undervalued in this spot. The Bulldogs have had much the tougher schedule so far and figure to have a good enough pass defense to get the Rebels out of their comfort zone.

The lean is a slight one. Consider a partial-unit play on GEORGIA -1.5 (-105).

Over/Under

Both defenses are excellent in getting red-zone stops, and both teams have capable kickers. Both also excel in keeping offenses off schedule and forcing punts.

If UGA doesn’t get too loose with the ball (UM is highly rated in causing havoc, Georgia has thrown multiple picks in 4 of its last 5 games), look for some empty exchanges in spots. Rain is in the forecast and the Under is 4-1 across the Bulldogs’ last 5 true road games.

BET UNDER 54.5 (-115).
