Missouri vs. Mississippi

Ole Miss lost all three meetings with Missouri last year, but one can more easily dismiss those losses as they were with Cuonzo Martin coaching the Tigers and not Dennis Gates. The Rebels have lost seven of eight games, but three were by four or fewer points. Ole Miss has a significant advantage on the offensive glass, rebounding 33.8% of its misses (41st), while Missouri allows offensive rebounds at the 359th-worst rate in the country. In addition, the Rebels’ solid interior defense (44.8% allowed from 2-point range is 25th-best) should negate Missouri’s biggest offensive strength (seventh-best 2-point shooting team).

The home team is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings between these teams, and Missouri has covered just one of its previous four this season.

Bet: Mississippi ML (-120 at DraftKings)
