Ole Miss vs Alabama Prediction
The Alabama Crimson Tide are the more talented team with a ridiculous offense, and they’re going to be favored at home where they’re undefeated. I get it. However, this line is disrespectful toward Ole Miss. The Ole Miss Rebels get after it defensively, and they have guys who can score as well. Ole Miss is also 11-5 ATS on the season, which includes a recent road win over Arkansas. This feels like a good matchup between two above-average SEC programs. I’m just not seeing double-digit chalk. In fact, this is the first time in a year, Ole Miss is a double-digit dog. Give me the points with the Rebels.
