Mississippi State vs Ole Miss Picks: Lay Points in Egg Bowl November 29

The Ole Miss Rebels look to solidify their college football ranking when facing the Mississippi State Bulldogs on Friday in the annual Egg Bowl.

It could be a scoring feast for the Rebels against the 2-9 Bulldogs, who lost heavily to Missouri last week. The Bulldogs are +26 underdogs to cause an SEC upset, so most of the early support with college football spreads is with the home side.

2 Keys to Bet on Mississippi State vs Ole Miss

1. Bulldogs Needings Thanksgiving Miracle

Not much is going right for the Bulldogs, who fell to 2-9 after losing 30-20 to Missouri last week. It wasn’t a good performance, and the scoreline was helped by the Bulldogs having a good final quarter.

Without a win in the SEC, the Bulldogs are now fighting to save face. They are massive underdogs with NCAAF odds, and it’s hard to disagree with the +26 number. There is no effort being shown, and they’re likely to be outclassed by their bitter rival.

“We didn’t respond the way we needed to,” head coach Jeff Lebby said. “Especially offensively, we really struggled after that. When we’ve played well defensively, we’ve struggled offensively. When we’ve played well offensively, it’s just the opposite. That’s the most frustrating thing to me.”

It doesn’t bode well for the visitors, who will need to muster all their courage to keep the game close on Friday, but we can’t see it happening in NCAA football predictions.

2. Big Win Awaits Rebels

Losing 24-17 to Florida killed their College Football Playoff hopes, but the Rebels could bounce back in a big way against their bitter rival.

Per Mississippi State vs Mississippi betting trends, the teams have split the past six meetings.

It was a shock loss following impressive wins over Oklahoma, Arkansas and Georgia, but that’s the nature of college football. You’re only as good as your last performance, and Ole Miss needs to get back to what it does best.

We have been impressed with quarterback Jaxson Dart, who owns 24 touchdowns and only six interceptions, including two last week. That’s a good record and he should have no problems finding holes in the Mississippi State defense.

Our college football expert betting picks have the Rebels putting up a big score on the Bulldogs. They could score close to 50 points, and the offense should be much better than the 17-point effort shown against the Gators. The Bulldogs could be the team that suffers against a Rebels outfit desperate to show they belong in the playoffs.

Best Bet for Mississippi State vs Ole Miss

We have Ole Miss covering the -26 spread with ease in online betting. Our score prediction is 40-7, so it should be a comfortable win for the home side, and it’s needed following a loss.

We’re including under 61½ because we can’t see Mississippi State scoring too many points. It came alive in the second half last week, but we can’t see Ole Miss allowing the Bulldogs back into the game.

We have 47-50 points being scored in the SEC game, which gives bettors plenty of points to work with, so include under 61½ points in NCAAF picks and parlays this week.

Bet on Under 61½ (-110)
