Betting odds for Kentucky football at No. 6 Ole Miss Week 5

The Kentucky Wildcats (2-2, 0-2 SEC) are matched up with the No. 6-ranked Ole Miss Rebels (4-0) in Oxford, Mississippi, this Saturday, and if you’re looking to do some early betting research, you’re in luck!

We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over/under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet.

Ole Miss has been lighting up the scoreboard so far this season. The Rebels have outscored their opponents 220-22. Granted, they haven’t played the most competitive teams so far, but their offense can put up points in a hurry.

Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin and his team play their first conference game of the season as they host Kentucky. The Wildcats are a better team than what their record suggests. They are coming off a 41-6 win against the Ohio Bobcats and were close to upsetting the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs the week before, losing 13-12.

The Wildcats are a sneaky team and if the Rebels are caught sleeping, this game could be closer than people would think.

The game will kick off on Saturday, Sept. 28 at noon ET and can be seen on ABC.

Below is what the odds are at as of now.

Advice and Prediction

Despite Kentucky’s success on the defensive side of the ball, the game will be a high-scoring affair. Ole Miss has arguably the best offense in college football and their going to find a way to put some points on the board.

With the Rebels playing in their SEC-opener at home, you already know that crowd is going to be amped up. I think that this game will be relatively close in the first half but the Ole Miss offense will be too much to keep up for Kentucky. With that being said, I don’t think Kentucky will get completely blown out of the water, so I would take their spread at +17.5 points.

Advice:

Over 52.5 points
Kentucky spread (+17.5)
Ole Miss money line (-900)

Score Prediction: Ole Miss beats Kentucky 37-24
