OIe Miss vs. Texas A&M CBB Prediction:
Ole Miss is a different team at home than they are on the road. All three of the Rebels losses have come on the road since January 6th. Ole Miss lost at Tennessee by 26, at LSU by 9, and at Auburn by 23. Texas A&M just beat that same LSU team in Baton Rouge by 4 last Saturday, and the Aggies followed that up with a home win over Missouri on Tuesday.
Texas A&M is 15-10 ATS as a home favorite since the beginning of the 2022 season and 9-3 ATS with the rest advantage in that same span. Aggies head coach Buzz Williams is the reigning SEC Coach of the Year, and he should have his team ready to go at home in this Saturday night showdown. I’ll be laying the points with Texas A&M in College Station in this contest.
