College Basketball Betting Trends
Arkansas
The Razorbacks are 1-8 ATS in their last nine games overall. Arkansas is 1-4 ATS in its last games overall.
Mississippi
The Rebels are 5-0 ATS in their last five Saturday games. Ole Miss is 6-1 ATS in its last seven home games.
Prediction:
The Rebels were on a roll before their last game and I think a lot of that can be chalked up to a letdown following an emotional win as underdogs at rival Mississippi State. In comes a struggling Razorbacks squad that isn’t very good offensively and lately has struggled on the defensive end. I am betting on a big bounceback effort by Ole Miss.
