Ole Miss Rebels vs LSU Tigers Prediction, Preview, & Odds – 10/12/2024

On Saturday, the Ole Miss Rebels will take on the LSU Tigers in a matchup of SEC teams ranked in the top-15 in college football. Ole Miss is favored by 2.5 points going into this contest, while the total is set at 64.5. In this Ole Miss vs LSU preview, you will get our college football predictions for this huge game along with our keys to this game between teams looking to avoid a second loss on the year.

Ole Miss Still With Something to Prove

The Ole Miss Rebels are 4-1 so far this season, sitting at 1-1 in SEC play. The Rebels dropped a game for the first time this season two weeks ago when they were defeated by the Kentucky Wildcats, bouncing back against South Carolina last week. But the Rebels still have a lot to prove going into this Ole Miss vs Kentucky matchup, as they have yet to beat a team considered to be elite yet this year.

For Ole Miss to pass this huge test against LSU, they are going to need to continue to get Tre Harris open. Harris has 885 receiving yards and five receiving touchdowns through the first five games of this season for the Rebels. But Ole Miss had trouble getting him the ball against Kentucky and could be in trouble if they suffer a similar fate against LSU on Saturday.

LSU Searching For Fifth Straight Win

LSU lost its first game of the season to the USC Trojans at a neutral site in Las Vegas. Since then, they have bounced back nicely, winning four games in a row. That win streak included a win in their first and only SEC game of the season so far against South Carolina. Here, the Tigers will look for a fifth win in a row, one that would provide a compelling case that LSU should be in one of the at-large College Football Playoff spots at this point in the season.

Tigers quarterback Garrett Nussmeier will be huge key to the outcome of this game for the Tigers. He is on pace to throw for over 3,000 yards for the season, with 15 passing touchdowns and just four interceptions through five games. Against a tough Ole Miss defense, he will need to prove that his hot start is for real.

Ole Miss vs LSU Matchup History

For the most part, the Ole Miss vs LSU rivalry in the SEC has been dominated by the LSU Tigers. LSU is 64-38-3 against Ole Miss all-time, though Ole Miss did beat LSU 55-49 in a shootout last season. LSU will look for revenge for that result in this game, one with huge implications for both teams going forward.

Ole Miss vs LSU Best Bet

We are not entirely convinced that Ole Miss is for real based on what we have seen from them this season. They fell flat in their only real test of the year against a one-dimensional Kentucky team and going on the road to LSU shouldn’t make things any easier for them. We will take the points with LSU here, as they could easily win this game outright in Death Valley.
