Ole Miss Rebels Game Notes
Ole miss improved to 5-1 after their week 6 27-20 win against the Arkansas Razorbacks. Ulysses Bently ran for a season high 94 yards on 13 carries and a touchdown. The Ole Miss defense was big in the win allowing only 36 total yards on the ground for the Hogs.
Auburn Tigers Game Notes
Auburn dropped to .500 on the year after getting destroyed by a score of 48-18 against the LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge. Not much went right for Auburn, recording less than 300 total yards against a poor LSU defense. One bright spot for the Tigers was Jeremiah Cobb who ran for a season high 69 yards on 10 carries. Both sides of the ball will need to improve if they want any chance of beating the Rebels.

Ole Miss vs. Auburn BETTING PREDICTION
Ole Miss enters Jordan-Hare Stadium off a bye week, while Auburn returns home off an ugly loss to LSU. As bad as Auburn looked last Saturday, we are going to back them here to keep it close against the Rebels.
Former Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze will have his Auburn team ready to go for this game against his old school. Auburn has been tough at home this year (2-1) and the only loss being Georgia, who they were going punch for punch with. I fully expect the same level of intensity from the Tigers in this one. Auburn turns this into a sloppy game, where they force some turnovers and win in the trenches. Auburn is the play as the home dog.
Ole Miss vs. Auburn Prediction: Auburn +6.5
