No. 3 Alabama (-6) at No. 11 Ole Miss
The line in this game opened with Alabama as a four-point favorite, which seemed awfully low, even if the Tide is on the road. It's since grown to six points, and to be honest, it still looks like too small of a number. But is it?
Ole Miss isn't ranked No. 11 in the country by accident, it's been very impressive to start the season. In fact, since struggling out of the gate in the first three quarters of its season opener against Boise State, Ole Miss has outscored its opponents 149-28. The Rebels defense is ranked atop the SEC in total defense (248 yards per game), yards allowed per play (3.74), defensive pass efficiency (74.20), and points allowed (8.5 per game).
Of course, the caveat here is that Ole Miss has played Boise State, Vanderbilt, Louisiana-Lafayette and Memphis. It hasn't played a team anywhere near the caliber of Alabama, and this Saturday will be a much taller mountain to climb. So can the Rebels get there? Or, more importantly, can they cover?
