No. 15 Ole Miss @ No. 13 Alabama (Tide – 7, O/U 57)

Evan: This is going to be a textbook Alabama Get-Right game. Milroe is back at QB, and while he had his fair share of mistakes in the Texas game, I do think the one-week benching will snap a bit of sense into him and just go ball instead of forcing throws that we watched him not be able to make. Alabama -7

Ryan: Milroe being named the starter this week is the reason I’m picking Bama to cover. Ole Miss hasn’t really stopped anyone yet and those teams aren’t even close to the talent level Bama has and it is in Tuscaloosa. I don’t see a blowout but Bama will win by more than 7. Bama -7

Ethan: I’m thinking Ole Miss covers and causes some chaos, but Nick Saban escapes with a win. Ole Miss +7

Justin:  Again, don’t actually place money on this game. Everything points to Ole Miss at the very least covering, but at some point, Alabama will turn into something that looks closer to Alabama and it could happen any week. Ole Miss +7

Andrew:  There’s zero reason to trust Alabama right now, but I’m going to reluctantly do it. Ole Miss hasn’t been good along the OL this year, and that’s troublesome against Bama. Georgia Tech and Tulane with a backup QB moved the ball on them. The Tide bounces back. Bama -7
