Ole Miss at Wake Forest picks and predictions
Prediction
Ole Miss 35, Wake Forest 10
Moneyline
PASS.
The Rebels will win as -2500 favorites, but this line is not worth the risk of betting on. Bet the spread and/or O/U instead.
Against the spread
BET OLE MISS -22.5 (-115).
Ole Miss is the much better team, and its offense leads the nation in yards per game, passing yards per game, and points per game. The Rebels offense will be far too much for Wake Forest to handle, and while this is the best competition the Rebels have faced this year, they will still be dominant in this matchup.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 64.5 (-110).
Wake Forest’s offense has looked good thus far, but this Ole Miss defense is very strong and has allowed only 27 rushing yards per game, good for best in the nation. Ole Miss will be able to score, but look for Wake Forest’s offense to be stifled here.
This is a lean simply because of how good Ole Miss’ offense is, as the Rebels are always a threat to put up 50+ in their current state.
