I make the best Tulane vs. Ole Miss prediction for today's 3:30 p.m. ET (ESPN) game at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford, Miss. The Rebels are favored by between 11 and 12.5 points on the betting line.

The Over is one of the most popular college football picks of the week, and I agree with the public that these two teams are going to put points on the board. With plenty of scoring, Kewan Lacy finding the end zone multiple times is one of the best college football predictions for Week 4.

Over 60.5 (-110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Green Wave have seen two of their three totals hit 61 points, while the Rebels have had two games reach at least 70. Both defenses have held one of their first three opponents to single digits, yet both units are allowing over 20 points per game.

The only thing stopping my Tulane vs. Ole Miss prediction from being a five-star play is that both teams run the ball very effectively. They’re each averaging at least 211 yards per game, and if both are effective Saturday, possessions could be limited due to long drives.

Still, the Rebels have scored at least 30 in all three of their games, and the Green Wave have hit at least 33 twice. The price of -110 at bet365 suggests a 52.38% chance the total goes Over 60.5. A $10 bet would pay $9.09.

Kewan Lacy to score 2+ touchdowns (+180) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Even though he managed just 2.9 yards per carry last week, Lacy still found the end zone for the fifth time this season. He’s now scored in every game, and he had three touchdowns in Week 1.

What makes this prop even more enticing is how involved Lacy was in the passing attack last week. After just one catch in the first two games, he caught four passes for 40 yards against Arkansas. 

The Green Wave have only given up two rushing touchdowns this season, but they’ve also played with the lead for the majority of the season. In a high-scoring game that his team should be leading, Lacy should get plenty of opportunities for the Rebels’ top-30 rushing attack.

The price of +180 at FanDuel suggests a 35.71% chance that Lacy scores twice. A $10 bet would pay $18.

Tulane vs. Ole Miss odds analysis

Most bettors (61%) are backing the Over in this game. However, this is already such a high total that oddsmakers seem reluctant to change the number much, so I don’t anticipate this climbing to 62.5 or 63 before kickoff. As for the spread, the best sports betting sites are split on how they feel about these two teams. BetMGM and FanDuel still have Ole Miss favored by 12.5, while bet365 has the spread at 11. With bettors essentially split on who will cover, I expect there to be continued discrepancy between sportsbooks before kickoff.

How do college football odds work?

When betting on college football, the point spread shows how many points the favorite needs to win by in order to cash the bet. For example, a favorite of -3 must win by more than 3 points to cover the spread, while an underdog at +3 must win outright or lose by fewer than 3 points to cover the spread.

Moneyline odds represent the payout for picking the outright winner (+200 means a $100 bet wins $200, while -200 means a $200 bet wins $100). Over/Unders let you wager on whether the combined total will be higher or lower than the set number.
