OUR PICK: The over is 8-1 in the last nine meetings between these two teams in Oxford and 5-2 in the last seven meetings overall, but the under is the better play. The under has cashed in seven of the Rebels’ last 10 home games, is 20-6-1 in their last 27 conference games, and is 9-1-1 in their last 11 games coming off a loss. On the other side, the under is 7-1 in the Tigers’ last eight conference games, is 3-1-1 in their last five road games and has cashed in nine of their last 13 games overall. Auburn is playing good defense and should contain Chad Kelly and Co. on Saturday night.
