Why the Texas Longhorns will win

  • Ole Miss has lost each of its last 10 Saturday day road games against the Southeastern Conference.
  • Texas has won 33 of its last 41 games at Moody Center against non-AP-ranked opponents.
  • Texas has won the first half in 17 of its last 20 day games against non-AP-ranked opponents.

Total Points Facts

  • Twenty-one of Texas’ last 23 games against Conference opponents have produced a total of 147+ points.
  • Each of Ole Miss’ last four games against non-AP-ranked opponents have produced a total of 145 or fewer points.

Ole Miss vs Texas Prediction 

Ole Miss comes into this matchup on a four game losing streak and they have scored fewer than 70 points in five straight games. The Rebels are shooting 44% from the field, but they did nearly beat Vanderbilt on the road two games ago. Texas has won three of their last four games and they have scored at least 79 points in five straight. The Longhorns are shooting 49% from the field, but they have allowed at least 75 points in three of their last five. I expect Texas to get the win, but I think Ole Miss can keep this game close against a below average Texas defense.
