Odds

Tigers Continue To Win

Auburn has continued to grow throughout this season, and still looks like the team to beat going into March. The Tigers have passed almost every test they have faced so far, and look like they won’t be stopping anytime soon.

Johni Broome continues to dominate in stats, but none more than rebounds, as he is a big part in Auburns top level defense. He’ll be tasked with leading the way once again this week.

For anyone to beat this Auburn team, they will have to break down that Tigers defense. It’s a tough task for any team at the moment. The Tigers have an excellent coach in Bruce Pearl and one of the deepest rosters in all of college basketball.

Pedulla And Co Look to Restart Rebels

Ole Miss is on a downward spiral, so it’s not the best time to face Auburn.

The Rebels will be looking to points leader Sean Pedulla to galvanize this team, and create some magic on offense that can get test this stout Tigers defense.

It will have to be a full team effort for Ole Miss to pull out a result here, but the likes of Pedulla, and Forward Malik Dia will certainly make things interesting. The Rebels need to lean on their home-court advantage to have a chance of winning.

Auburn vs. Ole Miss Pick

Auburn have lost just one game for a reason, and it’s hard to see that changing here.

This one will be closer than anticipated, but the #1 team in the country will come out unscathed once more as they gear up for March.
