Oklahoma Sooners at Ole Miss Rebels Preview
The Oklahoma Sooners are set to face the Ole Miss Rebels in a pivotal SEC matchup at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. Both teams are looking to rebound from recent setbacks, with Oklahoma entering the game at 4-3 overall and 1-3 in SEC play, while Ole Miss stands at 5-2 overall and 1-2 in the conference. The Sooners, under head coach Brent Venables, have struggled offensively, ranking 128th in total offense and last in the SEC in rushing yards. The recent firing of offensive coordinator Seth Littrell has led to Joe Jon Finley taking over playcalling duties, with Kevin Johns stepping in as interim quarterbacks coach.
Jackson Arnold, the sophomore quarterback for Oklahoma, will start against Ole Miss after showing flashes of potential in a tough loss to South Carolina. Arnold completed 18 of 36 passes for 225 yards and a touchdown, despite the Sooners' offensive woes. The Sooners' defense, however, has shown moments of dominance, which could be crucial against a high-powered Ole Miss offense led by head coach Lane Kiffin and quarterback Jaxson Dart.
Ole Miss, ranked No. 18, is coming off a bye week following a narrow overtime loss to LSU. The Rebels' offense is one of the most explosive in the nation, with wide receiver Tre Harris being a standout performer. Harris has amassed 987 receiving yards and six touchdowns this season, making him a key target for Dart. The Rebels' offensive line, however, has been a point of concern, allowing 17 sacks this season, which could be a factor against Oklahoma's pass rush.
Defensively, Ole Miss has been formidable, leading the nation in run defense and ranking second in scoring defense. The Rebels' ability to pressure the quarterback, with 24 sacks this season, will be tested against Arnold and the Sooners' offensive line. The game promises to be a clash of styles, with Ole Miss looking to capitalize on its offensive firepower and Oklahoma aiming to find consistency and spark under Arnold's leadership.
Oklahoma Sooners at Ole Miss Rebels Pick: Total Points Over
The upcoming clash between the Oklahoma Sooners and the Ole Miss Rebels is poised to be a high-scoring affair, making the over on the total points an enticing pick. Both teams have shown vulnerabilities and strengths that suggest a game with plenty of scoring opportunities. Ole Miss, under the guidance of head coach Lane Kiffin, boasts one of the nation's most explosive offenses. Quarterback Jaxson Dart has been a dynamic force, and with wide receiver Tre Harris, who has already accumulated 987 receiving yards and six touchdowns this season, the Rebels have the firepower to put up significant points. Despite their offensive prowess, Ole Miss has struggled with pass protection, allowing 17 sacks this season, which could lead to quick scoring drives or turnovers that set up short fields.
On the other side, Oklahoma's defense, while occasionally dominant, has been inconsistent, allowing opponents to capitalize on their offensive struggles. The Sooners' offense, led by sophomore quarterback Jackson Arnold, has shown flashes of potential, particularly in their recent game against South Carolina where Arnold threw for 225 yards and a touchdown. With the recent changes in their coaching staff, including Joe Jon Finley taking over playcalling duties, there is potential for the Sooners to find a rhythm and contribute to a high-scoring game.
Moreover, both teams are coming off games where they allowed significant points, with Ole Miss conceding 29 points in an overtime loss to LSU and Oklahoma giving up 35 points to South Carolina. The Rebels' defense, while strong against the run, will be tested by Oklahoma's passing game, and the Sooners' defense will have its hands full with Ole Miss's offensive threats. Given these dynamics, the potential for a shootout is high, making the over on the total points a compelling choice for this SEC showdown.
Oklahoma Sooners at Ole Miss Rebels Top Player Prop Picks
Tre Harris Over 100.5 Receiving Yards Receiving Yards -110 (BetMGM)
Tre Harris has been a standout performer for Ole Miss this season, amassing 987 receiving yards and six touchdowns. His ability to stretch the field and make big plays has been a cornerstone of the Rebels' explosive offense. Against an Oklahoma defense that has shown vulnerabilities, particularly in recent games where they allowed significant points, Harris is poised to have another big day. With Jaxson Dart at the helm, Harris will likely be targeted frequently, especially given his impressive average of 16.7 yards per catch. The Sooners' defense, while occasionally dominant, has struggled with consistency, making Harris a prime candidate to exceed the 100.5 receiving yards mark.
Jackson Arnold Over 1.5 Passing Touchdowns Passing Touchdowns +120 (FanDuel)
Jackson Arnold, the sophomore quarterback for Oklahoma, has shown flashes of potential despite the team's offensive struggles. In his recent outing against South Carolina, Arnold threw for 225 yards and a touchdown, demonstrating his ability to lead the offense. With the recent changes in the coaching staff and Joe Jon Finley taking over playcalling duties, there is potential for Arnold to find a rhythm and improve his performance. Ole Miss, while strong defensively, has allowed points in recent games, and Arnold's ability to exploit any defensive lapses could lead to multiple passing touchdowns. Given the Rebels' focus on stopping the run, Arnold may find opportunities in the passing game, making the over on 1.5 passing touchdowns an enticing pick.
Jaxson Dart Over 2.5 Total Touchdowns Total Touchdowns +150 (DraftKings)
Jaxson Dart has been a dynamic force for Ole Miss, leading one of the nation's most explosive offenses. With a talented receiving corps led by Tre Harris, Dart has the weapons to put up significant points against an Oklahoma defense that has been inconsistent. The Sooners have struggled to contain opposing offenses, as evidenced by their recent performances, and Dart's dual-threat ability makes him a constant scoring threat. Whether through the air or on the ground, Dart's versatility and the Rebels' offensive firepower suggest he can account for over 2.5 total touchdowns in this matchup. With Ole Miss looking to capitalize on their offensive strengths, Dart is well-positioned to lead the charge and deliver a high-scoring performance.
