Ole Miss vs Auburn Prediction
Ole Miss comes into this matchup after a dramatic win over Arkansas on Thursday, but the level of competition will rise sharply here. Auburn has been one of the best teams in the country all season, but they have dropped two games in a row to A&M and Alabama. Auburn is shooting 48.5% from the field this year and they are scoring over 85 points per game. The Tigers have won the first two meetings with Ole Miss by scores of 92-82 and 106-76, and I think the high scoring will continue. The Rebels have really struggled defensively to finish out the season, so give me the over here.
David’s Pick Over 154.5
