Ole Miss is coming into this game after dropping their 4th straight game on the year. This time the Rebels lost to Vanderbilt in an overtime game that was a thriller, but if you are a Rebels fan was not the way that you wanted to have the game fall as it allowed the Commodores to keep their bowl hopes alive. What is even worse is it showed that the Rebels are not a clutch team when they need to be one in the SEC.
The Rebels on the year have relied on Jordan Ta'amu who has thrown the ball for 3831 yards and has managed to get a total of 19 touchdowns. A significant difference is the Rebels have seen Scottie Phillips, not the quarterback, lead the team when it comes to rushing. Phillips on the season has carried the ball 149 times for 927 yards and 12 touchdowns.

The Bulldogs have relied on Fitzgerald quite a bit on the season and with his talent it is easy to see why. However, the Rebels have a good offense that can put up quite a few points if they need to. The Rebels defense has played well, but will have their hands full in this game as Fitzgerald is hard to defend. Look for the Mississippi State squad to come away with the win in this game, but it will be a dog fight. Final Score, Mississippi State Bulldogs win, but do not cover ATS 34-28.
