Georgia vs. Ole Miss Betting Prediction
This couldn’t be a bigger game for Ole Miss. With a win, the Rebels would create a path to the College Football Playoff without even having to make the SEC Championship Game. Mississippi’s offense is good enough to win this game. The Rebels rank in the top 20 nationally in points per play, points per game, yards per play, and yards per game. Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart has a 21-3 touchdown-pass-to-interception ratio this season and a total QBR of 86.4 on the campaign. The latter figure ranks 6th in the country this season.
Georgia could be looking ahead to their top-10 matchup with Tennessee next weekend. The Bulldogs have beaten the Rebels 5 out of the last 6 times these two teams have played. Georgia smoked Ole Miss 52-17 in Athens last season.
It’s possible that the Bulldogs are going to be overconfident coming in. There’s also the matter of Georgia QB Carson Beck’s turnovers. The 6’4” senior has thrown 11 interceptions this season, including 2+ picks in each of his last three games. That could end up being the difference in a shootout between these two schools. The public is all over Georgia in this one, but I’m not. I’m backing the Rebs at home in Oxford on Saturday afternoon.
