Ole Miss Has Had Alabama’s Number Recently
Alabama has been the class of the SEC for the past two seasons, but the team has been unable to conquer conference rival Ole Miss. The Crimson Tide are 0-2 SU and ATS in their past two meetings against the Rebels after winning the previous 10 matchups between the teams.
After an up-and-down performance in Week 1 against Florida State, Chad Kelly took the opportunity against a lesser opponent — Wofford — to gain some confidence. Kelly completed 74.1 percent of his passes with three touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 2. The senior QB also played well against Alabama last season, as he threw for 341 yards and three TDs.
Despite coach Nick Saban seeming less than pleased with their Week 2 performance, Alabama has outscored their opponents 90-16 through their first two outings. The Tide’s offense looks to be in good hands, as freshman quarterback Jalen Hurts has cemented himself as the starter.
