Auburn vs. Ole Miss Pick
Auburn has climbed to No. 1 in the BCS Standings and if it wants to stay there, it can’t fall into the same pitfall as other No. 1 teams have the past two weeks. The Tigers will travel to Oxford this Saturday to take on Ole Miss at 6:00PM – read on for our free pick of this SEC matchup.
Oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com have made Auburn a 7-point favorite over Ole Miss in Week 9. The over/under total for this game is currently 60.5 points.
Let’s get to our free pick.
The Tigers are a perfect 8-0 on the year and have covered the spread in five of their first eight games. They’re 2-0 on the road this season, although are just 1-1 against the number away from home.
The Rebels are 3-4 straight up and 3-4 against the spread this season. They’re 2-2 at home and have split against the number in those four games, covering against Fresno State and Kentucky but failing to cover against Jacksonville State and Vanderbilt.
Our Week 9 Free Pick:
The over is 5-1 in the last six meetings between these two teams in Mississippi and 5-1 in the Rebels’ last six home games. It’s also 7-3 in the Tigers’ last 10 games following an ATS win and 12-5 in their last 17 games as a favorite. We expect a back-and-fourth, drag-it-out fight between these two teams this week and we like the total to go over the posted number. The Rebels are currently ranked 10th in defense in the SEC right now, so Cam Newton and company should have no problem getting the ball into the end zone. Our pick is the over.
