In a matchup that will have no shortage of drama, Pete Golding and the Ole Miss Rebels (11-1, 7-1 SEC) will take on the Tulane Green Wave in the program's College Football Playoff debut.

No. 6 Ole Miss handled business in Week 4 against the Green Wave in a 45-10 victory, but Golding is expecting a more well-rounded matchup this time around in Round 2 of the fight.

"They're coming off a really good game and got some confidence in winning the conference championship and created a lot of turnovers," Golding said of Tulane.

“So, we know we’re going to have our work cut out for us. Obviously, having been at ‘Bama for all those years, we’re used to playing somebody twice. Once you go to that SEC championship game, you’re playing them twice."

Now, the betting lines have been adjusted for the College Football Playoff clash with Ole Miss entering as significant favorites.
