Week 11 of college football brings with it some massive marquee matchups with huge playoff implications and Georgia vs. Ole Miss is certainly one of the most intriguing.
Georgia is fresh off a game where they struggled to defeat the Florida Gators with their QB3 at the helm for much of the contest. Ole Miss, on the other hand, is coming off a game where they torched Arkansas 63-31. Which Georgia team shows up this week? Can Ole Miss and Lane Kiffin finally defeat an elite opponent?
Heading into this epic battle between the Bulldogs and the Rebels media members of A to Z Sports who cover both teams decided to weigh in, sharing their predictions for this extremely important SEC rivalry game.
Ole Miss 27, Georgia 23
Ole Miss has the perfect answer to stop Georgia in their tracks. They lead all FBS teams in both pass rush pressures and sacks, which should be a nightmare for an already struggling Carson Beck who has thrown 11 interceptions in the last five games. The Rebels have a top five offense and defense (on a per play basis) this year despite many still underestimating them due to a couple tight losses.
However, there are some questions for Lane Kiffin and his Rebels. The Ole Miss injury report suggests they may be down some offensive firepower. Thus, this is a lower scoring game than many expect. Rebels win a close one and keep their playoff hopes alive. – Travis May
Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart and WR Jordan Watkins break nearly every record in crushing SEC win over Arkansas

Georgia 28, Ole Miss 21
Ole Miss is a bipolar team who is led by one of the more productive passers in college football in Jaxson Dart. On the other side, Georgia signal caller Carson Beck has been maddeningly inconsistent in the biggest game. The Bulldogs lean on their run game toward a big victory that is not nearly as close as the final score shows. – Ryan Roberts
Georgia 30, Ole Miss 28
Georgia was a mess last week but still pulled off the victory over Florida. Kirby Smart's Dawgs can't afford those mistakes this week against a well-balanced Ole Miss team. The key will be to shut down Jaxson Dart early and win those 50-50 balls that Smart has preached about all season long. On offense, Carson Beck's passing game has to show up, but it should rebound after getting humbled against the Gators. This Georgia team has been far from perfect but they've proven they have a lot of heart week after week to overcome their mistakes. Georgia wins again — even if it's stressful heading into the fourth quarter. – Kelsey Kramer
Ole Miss 31, Georgia 21
I’ll call my shot that Lane Kiffin gets a big win against a team that seems to be trending the wrong way as the season enters its final few weeks. Ole Miss finally has the defensive talent to get after Carson Beck, and Beck’s carelessness with the ball in recent weeks will doom the Bulldogs. A strong game from Jaxson Dart propels the Rebels past the Bulldogs and quiets concerns about this team’s ability to compete against the nation’s elites. – Ian Valentino
