The SEC spotlight turns to Athens this Saturday as the Ole Miss Rebels travel to battle the Georgia Bulldogs. Ole Miss is navigating a new-era offense under Austin Simmons (or potentially Trinidad Chambliss) after the departure of Jaxson Dart. Georgia, meanwhile, leans on a stable of explosive running backs and a transfer-infused offense under Gunner Stockton at quarterback. This clash offers intriguing angles for prop bets.
Here are four bets that stand out ahead of kickoff.
Ole Miss’s quarterback situation is fluid — Austin Simmons is the presumed starter, but Trinidad Chambliss has impressed in relief.Whichever signal-caller takes the reigns will likely need to throw aggressively — Georgia’s run defense is stout, and the game script may force the Rebels into passing more. Given Ole Miss’s reliance on tempo and intermediate/deep shots, this line (~235.5) seems feasible if they stay competitive.
With Carson Beck now in the NFL, Gunner Stockton is primed to lead Georgia’s offense. Ole Miss’s defense has shown vulnerability in coverage, especially on intermediate routes. In games where Georgia leans into balance, Stockton should still rack up volume through the air — particularly targeting Dillon Bell, Zachariah Branch, and Colbie Young. If Ole Miss sells out to stop the run, Stockton’s passing volume will rise. The Over 247.5 line presents solid upside.
Georgia boasts a loaded stable of running backs — Chauncey Bowens, Nate Frazier, Bo Walker, Dwight Phillips — all capable of impacting the ground game. Bowens has flashed burst, and Georgia is likely to feature him heavily to exploit Ole Miss’s edge contain and linebackers in space. Given volume and matchup considerations, getting him over 67.5 rushing yards looks like a strong lean.
One of Stockton’s more trusted options is Dillon Bell, who offers versatility as both a receiver and occasional rusher. Given Ole Miss’s defensive transition phase, Bell should see red-zone opportunities. Georgia is likely to get multiple trips to the red zone in this matchup, and Bell’s matchup profile makes him a tempting anytime touchdown play at those odds.
This matchup shapes up as a hybrid fight — Georgia’s backfield may set the tone early, but Ole Miss will need to lean on their passing game to stay in it. The fluid QB situation for Ole Miss only adds intrigue. Georgia’s quarterback under center, Stockton, will be tested, but his receiving corps gives him multiple paths to success.
