Ole Miss vs BYU Prediction

Give me Ole Miss. I am still not sold on this BYU team, even though they have a perfect record. Ole Miss is averaging 80.8 points and they are going to find success against this BYU defense. I actually think the Rebels are going to win this game outright, but we will take the points to be safe. Back Ole Miss against the spread. If you wanna throw a few dollars on Ole MIss money line I don’t hate that play.
