Before Tennessee last week, the team took down then-ranked No. 3 Alabama and then-ranked No. 14 Texas A&M in back-to-back fashion.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63738&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n Starting this week, it has two more ranked opponents in a row, starting with LSU and finishing with No. 5 Auburn on Nov. 1.<\/p>\n If Ole Miss wins out, there’s no way the College Football Playoffs committee can keep them out of the top four. Defense has been the reason for the success, and it’s what will cause LSU grief this weekend.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=66501&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n LSU is a good defensive program. In fact, it’s\u00a0very\u00a0<\/em>good.<\/p>\n So far this season, the Tigers are giving up just 17 points per contest, which is good enough for eighth in the country.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, they’re going up against the No. 1 team in the country in terms of points per game allowed. Ole Miss is giving up just 10.6 points per contest, and no other team in the nation can make that claim.<\/p>\n For LSU, finding a balance offensively is going to be crucial. Unfortunately, that has been easier said than done all year.<\/p>\n The Tigers are 28th in the nation in rushing this season, but just 98th in passing. Ole Miss’ defense is too good to be that one-dimensional, so don’t be shocked if the Tigers struggle to find the endzone come Saturday.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63739&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n Betting trends favor both programs in this one, but the eye test says Ole Miss has the advantage.<\/p>\n If the spread were higher entering this contest, it would\u00a0be worth looking LSU’s way and considering an upset. The Tigers are a good team, but to come within a field goal is just too close considering the Rebels’ dominant defense.<\/p>\n Keep an eye on the spread as the week progresses, but don’t be shocked if Ole Miss earns a win straight up, as well as against the spread.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63706&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Week 9: Rebels vs. Tigers Week 8 college betting action sees the No. 3\u00a0Ole Miss Rebels\u00a0taking on\u00a0the No. 23\u00a0LSU Tigers\u00a0at Tiger Stadium (L.A.).
