- There is a 55-point total set between LSU and Ole Miss.
- Lane Kiffin told bettors to bet the over.

OXFORD, Miss. – A rowdy Week 5 top-15 matchup in the SEC between #4 LSU and #13 Ole Miss has been gaining tons of attention both from social media and the oddsmakers, with plenty of storylines to unfold here.
What brought tons of betting attention to this one on college football prop betting sites was the newly announced relationship between Landry Kiffin, Lane Kiffin’s daughter, and current LSU linebacker, Whit Weeks. The two made their relationship public on social media just days before this Week 5 matchup, to which Lane Kiffin had just a three-word response to: “Take The Over” that sent bettors into a frenzy.

- Spread: Ole Miss -1.5
- Total: 55
Should You Trust Lane Kiffin And Bet The Over?
Unfortunately, the joking about betting the over ends here, as this is not the spot to do so against this elite LSU defense. LSU hasn’t allowed more than 10 points in any single game thus far on the season, and have trended under in total points in three of their four games to this point.
There is no denying that the Ole Miss offense is on fire, however, no disrespect to Trinidad Chambliss and what he has done in the last two weeks, but he has not played a defense of this caliber.
Chambliss has led Ole Miss to two straight 41+ point outings against Tulane and Arkansas in his two starts. LSU has allowed just 9.3 ppg to opponents this season, while both Tulane and Arkansas are allowing over three touchdowns and well over 200 passing yards to opponents each.

Trinidad Chambliss Total Passing Yards
- Over 260.5 -114
- Under 260.5 -114
Sticking with Chambliss’ Cinderella run over the last two weeks, this is just too high of a number on college football betting sites to trust him to accomplish against this defense.
LSU is allowing 182.3 passing yards to opposing QBs this season and have held three of four opposing QBs this this season to under 260.5 passing yards. This will be his first start against a ranked opponent in his career, meaning a ton of newfound pressure will be on him as well.
