Ole Miss opens as double-digit underdogs against Mississippi State in Oxford

Related Topics: Underdog, Chase Parham

Ole Miss football has lost its last four games. The Rebels face Mississippi State on Thanksgiving night this week, and CLANGA is bowl eligible at 7-4. All three of these facts are true, and these facts are why Ole Miss is a home double-digit underdog to arch-rival Mississippi State this week.

I’m seeing State as a 9.5 to 11.5 point favorite over #OleMiss, depending on your book of choice, for Thursday’s Egg Bowl.

That feels about right, and before you yell at us for admitting that, please consider: the Ole Miss defense is very bad, and Mississippi State’s defense is very good.
