Expert Computer Model Predicts Exact Score of Ole Miss Football vs. Georgia Bulldogs

Lane Kiffin and the No. 5 ranked Ole Miss Rebels (6-0, 3-0 SEC) will put the program's unblemished record on the line in Week 8 for a Top-10 matchup against the Georgia Bulldogs.

After opening the 2025 season clicking on all cylinders, Kiffin and Co. will prepare for a significant test against a Kirby Smart led Bulldogs squad on Saturday afternoon.

"Kirby does an amazing job over time of winning close games and winning in different styles depending on what’s going on," Kiffin said. "It’s why he’s one of the greatest coaches ever.

"You are talking about, what are we at, the sixth year now? The last time they lost in the regular season to a team not in Alabama or now Ole Miss is Florida in 2020, if I remember right. Think about that for a while.

"That’s dominance in the hardest conference, by far, to be dominant in. That’s coaching really well. A lot of good players, but coaching really well in situations and being really hard to beat."

Now, with game day inching closer, the ESPN SP+ computer model has logged a pick heading into the Top-10 matchup. Where do the Rebels stand?
