Lane Kiffin returns to Oxford tonight as his #7 ranked LSU visits #8 Ole Miss. Both teams are 2-0, with kickoff set for 7:30 p.m. ET at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, and ABC carrying the game.

The rivalry has plenty of attention, but I’m interested in how bettors are approaching each market. The LSU vs Ole Miss betting splits show a near even ticket count and handle in the spread market, while the outright-winner market tells a different story.

Below, I break down the LSU vs Ole Miss betting splits, plus answer the question who is the public betting on?

LSU vs Ole Miss Betting Splits

Splits from Sportradar’s college football betting splits, checked September 20th at 3:09 PM ET.

LSU vs Ole Miss Odds

Odds from BetMGM’s September 18 matchup update, checked September 19. Compare the BetMGM promo code offer and college football betting apps before wagering.

BetMGM lists LSU below the key number of three, but charges -135 for that half-point advantage. Ole Miss backers get +2.5 at even money. The difference from the three-point spread in the splits table is a sportsbook-price distinction, not evidence by itself that the line moved.

Who Is the Public Betting On in LSU vs Ole Miss?

Spread Action

LSU is the public spread side, and the larger wagers lean the same way. Its 52% share of tickets produces 54% of the handle. There is recent football evidence behind the road favorite’s appeal. LSU beat Louisiana Tech 45-14 last week, with Princewill Umanmielen recording three sacks. The Tigers are a top National Championship odds contender, and pulled away despite three first-half turnovers, showing why their defensive pressure deserves attention alongside Kiffin’s offense.

Ole Miss has its own case: the Rebels beat Charlotte 41-9 for their 13th consecutive home victory. That home record matters when evaluating the underdog, even with the larger share of spread money going against it.

Moneyline Action

The public is also backing LSU to win outright. Rounded to whole numbers, the Tigers have 71% of bets and 70% of the money. That is broad support for LSU. I would not describe this as professionals opposing recreational bettors. Both measures favor the Tigers by a similar margin, leaving Ole Miss with 29% and 30% of the action in the ticket and handle categories.

Total Action

Under 58.5 holds 52% of tickets and 50% of the money. Bigger wagers lean slightly toward the Under, but the public is on the Under too, so this is not a contrarian position against an Over-heavy crowd.

Ole Miss held Charlotte without a touchdown and limited it to three conversions on 14 third downs last week. LSU’s pass rush also enters off a productive performance. Those results help explain interest in a lower total, but neither came against the offense these teams will face Saturday.

My read is that no market shows a strong indication of a public vs sharp situation. There are sharp groups on both sides of this game, while the public seems to largely favor LSU to win straight up.
