Ole Miss vs Arkansas Prediction
Arkansas was able to pick up a much needed win on Tuesday against South Carolina, but they played pretty poorly in the second half and nearly gave the game away. The Razorbacks have won four of their last five games and they played very well over the last month of the regular season. Ole Miss has won two of their last three games, including a great win over Tennessee, but they have allowed at least 77 points in four of their last five games. Ole Miss did beat Arkansas by a score of 73-66 earlier in the season, but I think we are going to see more points in this matchup. Ole Miss has gone over 144.5 in six straight games and I think this game goes over as well.
