The Auburn Tigers and Ole Miss Rebels face off on Saturday in a college basketball showdown at The Pavillion.  Let’s look at the betting matchup and give a free Auburn vs Ole Miss prediction. When these two teams faced off on January 20th, it was Auburn that secured the 82-59. 

What Auburn Offense Shows Up?

The last time Auburn faced off against Ole Miss the offense was good, but at times as of late, the offense hasn’t been good. Last Saturday, Auburn faced off against Mississippi State and they were defeated 64-58. In the last game against Vanderbilt, Auburn was able to secure the 81-54. Auburn overall is averaging 82 points while their defense is giving up 65.3 points per game. The offense is ranked 27th while the defense is ranked 37th. Johni Broome is averaging 15.7 points while shooting 56.4 percent from the field and 34.2 percent from behind the three point line. 

Big Game for Ole Miss

Ole Miss might have a solid record but not many people are taking them seriously. If they were to win this game, that could change though. In the last game against Mississippi State they scored 47 points in the second half and that was enough to secure the 86-82 victory. Ole Miss on the season is averaging 76.9 points while their defense is giving up 70.7 points per game. The offense is ranked 109th while the defense si ranked 145th. Matthew Murrell is averaging 16.7 points while shooting 47.5 percent from the field and 38.4 percent from behind the three point line. 

Auburn vs Ole Miss Betting Prediction

Auburn has to go on the road for this game, but I expect it’s going to be much like the first time these two teams played. Auburn scored 82 points against Ole Miss in the last game and they are going to find similar offensive success in this game. Ole Miss is going to struggle to keep up and that is going to be the difference here as Auburn is going to get the job done. Back Auburn against the spread.
