Ole Miss has to be looking for revenge after last season’s 11-point loss at Auburn and the Tigers come to town prime for the picking. The Rebels will be 6-0 after a hot start to the season and they’ll keep rolling here, taking care of Bryan Harsin and the Tigers on the arm of Jaxson Dart.

Dart is going to be a surprise in the conference next year and Auburn had one of the worst passing defenses in the nation so he’ll take advantage of this matchup.

The game will come down to the wire, but a late Dart touchdown pass will give Ole Miss a huge win.

Prediction: Win (7-0, 3-0)

Riding high after a 7-0 start and sitting in the top-10 in the national rankings, Ole Miss will have a chance to make another statement, this time on the road against LSU who I believe will also be ranked at this point in the year.

Brian Kelly’s team will be much better than what LSU was last season and he’ll have the Tigers competing against every opponent. This one won’t be a cakewalk for Ole Miss despite possibly being the better team.

The Tigers will trip Ole Miss up for their first loss of the year and the perfect record will be shattered in Baton Rouge.

Prediction: Loss (7-1, 3-1)
