Why Texas A&M Will Cover The Spread
Texas A&M needs to find a way to keep up on offense in this game. Johnson, Moss, and Daniels are more than enough for the Aggies to keep up, but it is not going to be easy. Texas A&M averages over 30 points per game, and that is exactly what they will have to do in order to cover the spread. With the spread at just three points, this game is expected to be close. Texas A&M plays great defense, but their offense will have to steal the show.
Why Ole Miss Will Cover The Spread
Ole Miss has a very good offense. I briefly mentioned how good the Aggies play defense, and that is thanks to their pressure up front. Ole Miss has been able to with ease this season. The Rebels average almost 40.0 points per game. Dart leads the team as good as any quarterback in the country. Judkins is also a very good quarterback. The Aggies might be able to stop one part of the Rebels' offense, but the other part will be solid. All Ole Miss needs is either the run game, or pass game to go off, and they will cover the spread.
Final Texas A&M-Ole Miss Prediction & Pick
This game is going to be fun to watch. Both teams are capable of playing well, and I expect it to be a good game. However, I am going to take Ole Miss to cover this spread. Their offense is solid and should prevail in this game.
Final Texas A&M-Ole Miss Prediction & Pick: Ole Miss -3 (-114), Under 54.5 (-115)
