OUR PREDICTION: Ole Miss has hung with Alabama in recent years but I think the talent gap has widen significantly over the past year. The Crimson Tide just rushed for 496 yards against a good Vanderbilt defense last week on the road and will now faces a Rebels run defense that has allowed 184.0 rushing yards a game this season (96th in the nation) at home. Ole Miss has an excellent passing game but the Rebels are also one-dimensional. If ‘Bama gets to Shea Patterson consistently, things could get ugly tonight.
