Kentucky vs Ole Miss Prediction
Last time out, Kentucky hosted Northern Illinois and earned an uncomfortable 31-23 win. Northern Illinois started off well and had the game tied at 14 as we entered halftime. Kentucky came out firing in the second half and scored 17 unanswered points to start the half to pull away and get some breathing room. Will Levis went 18/26 for 303 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions on the night. Tayvion Robinson and Barion Brown each hauled in two touchdown passes in the win. Defensively, the Wildcats allowed 327 total yards and did not force any Northern Illinois turnovers.
Ole Miss hosted Tulsa and used a big second quarter to win 35-27. The Rebels jumped out to a 7-0 lead, but Tulsa were up 14-7 at the end of the first quarter. Ole Miss had enough that and scored 28 unanswered points to begin the second quarter to take a 35-17 lead into the half. Tulsa scored the only 10 points of the second half, but it was too little too late to pull off the upset. Jaxson Dart went 13/245 for 154 yards, two touchdowns, zero interceptions, and added 116 yards on the ground. Quinshon Judkins ran the ball 27 times for 140 yards, a 5.2 average, and two touchdowns in the win. Defensively, Ole Miss allowed 457 total yards and forced one Tulsa interception.
Series History: Ole Miss won the last two meetings and leads the all-time series 28-14-1.
Pick: I am surprised to see this big of a spread in this game and I like the underdog to potentially win outright. Be safe and take the points with Kentucky.
