Auburn vs. Ole Miss predictions, picks for college football Week 9
Ole Miss 31, Auburn 17: Stat-wise, Ole Miss does not produce the same numbers as Auburn's last two opponents, Georgia and LSU. However, the Rebels have an efficient passing game with 284.8 yards per game and 16 touchdown passes. Auburn was torched through the air last week by LSU's Sam Leavitt and did not pick any of his passes off. Ole Miss' Trinidad Chambliss will present a similar threat to Auburn's defense on Saturday, and the Tigers must create turnovers and sack opportunities to get out of Oxford with a win. - Taylor Jones
