They are 3-0 in their home games, 1-2 in their road games, and they are also 1-0 in their neutral site games this season, but they will be at home for this game.

The current betting odds have Ole Miss listed as a 13.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Ole Miss has looked good in their games this season with their 5-2 record overall and their 3-2 conference record which has them in the top half of the SEC. They have looked great on their home field too with their 3-0 home record this season. Meanwhile, Auburn has looked good in their games this season with their 4-3 record overall, but their 2-3 conference record has them in the bottom half of the SEC. They haven't been a great road team either with their 1-1 road record this year. Auburn had a big win over Georgia 2 weeks ago and that was their biggest win as a program in a while, but now they are coming off a 38-17 loss to LSU in their last one. They have still had a lot of trouble in the conference this season with Golesh being in his 1st year and they have shown that they aren't an elite team in the SEC. They have had a good defense this year, but that offense has looked really bad at times and this isn't a great situation for them on the road. Ole Miss has been ranked inside the top 10 for a lot of the season and they are coming off their 2nd loss now, so they will be looking to bounce back at home. They are coming off a 34-27 loss to Texas in their last one and they put up a really good fight, even tying the game after falling behind 24-3. That wasn't a great situation for them on the road against a Texas team that had lost 2 games in a row and were fighting to keep their season alive, but now Ole Miss is in that position with the 2nd loss on their record. Ole Miss has a ton of talent on offense that makes them one of the best offenses in the SEC this year and even their defense has looked a lot better lately. They are going to bounce back in this home game and Auburn won't have the offense to keep up when Ole Miss starts to pull away. The best way to place a bet here is on Ole Miss to cover the spread in this game.

“We obviously didn’t have them ready to rock. Really disappointed in that. I’ll find a way to make them respond because that’s the only option they’ve got. We’ve had the high of highs, and that was the low of lows.” - Alex Golesh after his team’s loss against LSU in their last game. 

“We said that at halftime, they’ve been up multiple possessions in this stadium and lost. They’ve been down multiple possessions in this stadium and won (over then-No. 1 Ohio State). So we knew if we went out and played good football that we can get back in it.” - Pete Golding after his team’s loss against Texas in their last game.
