Auburn vs. Mississippi Line at -7 and Steady
There has been zero line movement on the Auburn vs. Mississippi game, this despite heavy lopsided (nearly 90 percent) betting action on the away favorite Auburn. The Tigers rank number one in the nation on the BCS Standings this week. Mississippi comes into this game with a 3-4 record.
Auburn has won five of the last six in this series but has split Against The Spread.
Gambling911.com anticipated Auburn to have odds of 3/1 to win the 2011 BCS Championship game when BetUS.com releases its prices this week.
From Stats Inc:
The Tigers (8-0, 5-0) started the season ranked 22nd but have made a slow and steady rise behind an offense led by the versatile Newton, who has become a front-runner for the Heisman Trophy.
They didn't have to make such a dramatic climb in the BCS standings, where they were fourth in the initial rankings Oct. 17 after beating then-No. 12 Arkansas 65-43 a day earlier. Newton followed that four-touchdown performance by running for 217 yards and two scores in a 24-17 win over then-No. 6 LSU last Saturday.
The win, combined with top-ranked Oklahoma's loss at Missouri that night, helped the Tigers leapfrog Oregon and Boise State to the top of the BCS standings.
