Alabama vs Mississippi College Football Odds, College Football Picks & College Football Predictions: The Alabama Crimson Tide will put their No. 3 ranking on the line today when they meet SEC West rival Mississippi at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. The Crimson Tide have won their last four meetings with the Rebels, but the victories have not come easy as the winning margin in those four contests was a combined 13 points. Today's game is set to kickoff at 3:30pm ET in Oxford, Mississippi; it will be broadcast live on CBS. College Football Odds at Sportsbetting.com have the No. 20 Rebels listed as a +4 against the spread home underdog.

Alabama improved to 5-0 overall and 2-0 in SEC action last Saturday, scoring a blowout 38-20 win over the Kentucky Wildcats in Lexington. The Tide had more total yardage, more third down conversions, and more rush yards than did the Wildcats, but many Alabama players felt the team did not perform well. Kentucky made it easy of them, though, by turning the ball over four times.

"Even though it's a win, we're not satisfied with it," linebacker Rolando McClain said. "We know we could have played a lot better."

Nick Saban's troops know what is at stake today and it is likely they will perform to the standard they had hoped to against the Wildcats. The same standard that has led to a 40 point per game scoring average and that has held their competition to an average of 14.4 points per contest.

According to Saban, Alabama will need to bring its A game in order to get by Ole' Miss.

"(Mississippi) is probably the best team we have played to this point, all the way around," Saban said.

Mississippi improved to 3-1 overall and rebounded from their loss at South Carolina with a 23-7 win at Vanderbilt. Quarterback Jevan Snead continued his wayward throwing, tossing three picks to Commodores defenders in the win. However, the junior passer made up for his errors by completing three touchdown strikes as well. The Rebels finished the game with 397 yards and 20 first downs compared to 240 and 14 for Vandy. The Commodores did rack up 171 rush yards, though, at an impressive 4.5 yards per clip.

The Rebels desperately need this win with three undefeated squads ahead of them in the SEC West standings. If they lose, Snead and company can pretty much forget about a conference title.

College Football Odds Betting Trend: Alabama is 9-1 straight up and 7-3 against the spread in their last 10 games as a road favorite against an SEC squad.
