Auburn Tigers vs Mississippi Rebels prediction: Rebels win, Tigers cover
Mississippi will beat Auburn, Mississippi Rebels 31, Auburn Tigers 24, with Trinidad Chambliss’s passing production and Deuce Alexander’s consistent receiving output supplying the strongest advantage. Byrum Brown’s running threat against a vulnerable Ole Miss rush defense makes Auburn Tigers +11.5 (-110) an actionable spread wager. The total of 57.5 is a Pass, despite a projection slightly below that number.
Auburn Tigers vs Mississippi Rebels prediction and best bet
Mississippi has the stronger case to win this game, but Auburn has the more attractive spread. Chambliss enters with 1,926 passing yards and 16 passing touchdowns, giving the Rebels a productive quarterback to challenge an Auburn defense allowing 396.9 yards per game. Alexander’s steady receiving production strengthens that advantage.
The best bet is Auburn Tigers +11.5 (-110). Brown leads Auburn in rushing, and the Tigers’ own matchup report identifies Ole Miss as the SEC’s lowest-rated rush defense. That is a specific avenue for Auburn to compete. Mississippi’s injuries add uncertainty to the favorite’s margin, while Auburn’s October 17 victory at Georgia supplies a recent example of this team winning a difficult road game.
