Ole Miss will try to sweep its season series with SEC rival Texas A&M on Saturday afternoon. The Rebels (20-10, 7-10 SEC) picked up a road win in College Station earlier this season, but they have lost four of their last five games coming into the rematch. The Aggies (17-13, 8-9) are coming off consecutive wins over Georgia in Mississippi State after losing their previous five games. Ole Miss and Texas A&M are both on the wrong side of the NCAA Tournament bubble heading into this regular-season finale.

Tipoff is set for 2 p.m. ET at The Pavilion at Ole Miss in Oxford. The latest Ole Miss vs. Texas A&M odds from SportsLine consensus list the Rebels as 1.5-point favorites, while the over/under for total points is 143.

College basketball picks for Ole Miss vs. Texas A&M

Before tuning into the Texas A&M vs. Ole Miss game, you need to see the college basketball picks from SportsLine's advanced computer model. The model simulates every Division I college basketball game 10,000 times. It entered Week 18 of the 2023-24 season on a 141-100 roll on all top-rated college basketball picks dating back to last season, returning more than $1,700 for $100 players. It is also off to a sizzling 26-17 start on top-rated spread picks this season. Anyone following has seen huge returns. 

For Ole Miss vs. Texas A&M, the model projects that the Rebels cover the spread as 1.5-point favorites. Ole Miss got off to a 13-0 start this season, but it finds itself outside of the NCAA Tournament picture heading into this game. The Rebels lost six times in a seven-game stretch prior to an 84-78 win at Missouri last Saturday, as senior guard Matthew Murrell scored 21 points on 6 of 11 shooting.

Murrell was limited to just two minutes in a narrow loss at Georgia on Tuesday due to an illness, so Ole Miss will be happy to have its leading scorer back for this game. He is averaging 16.5 points and 2.3 assists per game, while senior guard Allen Flanigan is adding 15.1 points and 6.2 rebounds. They are joined in double figures by junior guard Jaylen Murray (13.7) and senior forward Jaemyn Brakefield (12.6).

Texas A&M has not been nearly as balanced, relying on Wade Taylor IV and Tyrece Radford to do most of its scoring. The Aggies are 2-7 straight up and against the spread in their last seven games, and SportsLine's model has Ole Miss covering in well over 50% of the latest simulations to sweep the season series. Stream the game here.
