Ole Miss has one of the top offenses in the SEC, posting 31.3 points per-game. The Tigers have a great defense, giving up only 13.7 points and 311.8 yards per-game. Jevan Snead has had a disappointing season for Ole Miss at quarterback, throwing for 1,983 yards and 17 touchdowns with 14 interceptions.
LSU has struggled offensively, averaging just 25 points and 310 yards per-game. The Rebels have been a good defense, only giving up 15.9 points and 313 yards per-game. Jordan Jefferson has thrown for 1,535 yards and 12 touchdowns with four interceptions.
The key in this pick is the fact that Ole Miss’ offense appears to be stronger while both defenses are comparable. LSU has struggled in low-scoring games against top SEC teams and this may be no different. The rankings would seem to lead you to taking LSU and the points, but the point spread odds are what they are for a reason and we suggest taking the Rebels at home minus the points. We also suggest the under in a defensive battle such as this.
