I have no opinion about the Rebels' chances this fall, but this article is about betting against the spread. I didn't go over the piece with a fine toothed comb, but it seems the point he's making is Ole Miss plus the points is a great bet this fall. If he gave a prediction of their '08 win-loss record, I overlooked it. This article is about making money.

They could cover 12 times and still be 3-9.

that virtually everyone on this board makes in reference to MSU baseball except for the whole highly touted highschool players thing. Why won't it work for OM football?

So did Cutcliffe waste Deuce McAllister and Eli Manning then? He never won a championship. Nutt did win the West with Matt Jones as his QB and he did win the West with McPhadden and Felix Jones in his backfield.

If you consider not winning a title to be wasting talent, then I suggest you go create a list of top notch SEC athletes that never won an SEC title. It'd be quite a long list of players who played under a whole bunch of different coaches.

can win three games one year and 8 the next but OM can't with a better head coach and more talent than MSU?

We each had 4 players selected for preseason All-SEC. However we won those games last year with 2 other players who would have been at least 2nd team selections (and probably 1st team). </p>

I don't see Ole Miss scoring to many more points. Yes the books might adjust the O/U's up......so I will be taking the Unders in that case. Can't wait to make that dinero.

"The changes in Ole Miss will have an effect on the way oddsmakers set the lines," says BetEd.com oddsmaker Randy Scott, "but mainly setting the over/under game totals. Ole Miss has a chance to score more points, unlike the past three years where they had a hard time scoring twenty points per game."

I don't buy the guys story.

DieHard you are either joking or <17ing> delusional...there is no way a coach with a 17-30 record deserves to be anointed as a "God." Ole Miss will win more than 3 games this year accept it, we had a comparable turnaround last year</p>

The only joke is some of you guys thinking ole piss (the same team that pulled the 0fer last year) is going to pile up wins this season. Comparing us to them is offensive to me, sorry if you can't understand that.

What a douchebag! You obviously miss the entire intent of this message board. You will not be missed.

First off, he might have taken a while to get the program back to the elite in the SEC, but we are their now. Nothing buts wins for our Dawgs from here on out.

Also, I don't think I am a douchebag for loving my school and hating Ole Miss. I thought we all (State fans) hated those bastards.
