OXFORD, Miss. – The Ole Miss Rebels host Mississippi State as 26-point favorites in the 2024 Egg Bowl as the 2024 college football season concludes.
While Lane Kiffin and the Rebels want to finish strong, they have essentially removed themselves from College Football Playoff talks after losing to Florida in Gainesville last week.
With three losses in the SEC, Ole Miss would need a few miracles to make the 12-team expanded playoffs. Before losing to Florida, Ole Miss had +1100 odds to win the CFP and those legal sports betting odds are now around +5000.
Take Mississippi State To Cover
The Mississippi State Bulldogs are 0-7 in SEC play this season but have covered the spread in four of those seven games. They have lost to SEC teams by an average of 18.6 points but held their own against Texas A&M and Georgia this season (lost each game by 10).
- Missouri – lost by 19
- Tennessee – lost by 19
- Arkansas – lost by 33
- Texas A&M – lost by 10
- Georgia – lost by 10
- Texas – lost by 22
- Florida – lost by 17
As underdogs on the road in 2024, Mississippi State is 3-1 ATS. Ole Miss on the other hand, is 3-4 ATS this season in conference play. The intense rivalry between these two teams has kept the score close over the last few years. Since 2019, the Egg Bowl has not been decided by more than 10 points.
Jaxson Dart Over 275 Passing Yards -240
Most legal college football betting sites offer alternative lines on Jaxson Dart’s passing yards for this matchup. Dart has thrown for over 275 yards in nine of his 11 games this season. Mississippi State’s defense is allowing an average of 299 passing yards per game against SEC teams this season.
Carson Beck, Arch Manning, and Taylen Green have all thrown for over 300 yards this season against Mississippi State, and Jaxson Dart and Ole Miss should not be hesitant to throw the ball downfield in the last regular season game of the 2024 season.
