The Ole Miss Rebels have stunned number three-ranked Alabama.  The last time Mississippi started the season 5-0, the President of the United States was John F. Kennedy (1962).  It is the first time they have ever defeated a top ranked team.  Mississippi was also the only home underdog in the SEC on Saturday.

Ole Miss entered this season with 45-1 odds of winning the 2015 National Championship at Sportsbook.ag.

The Rebels sealed the deal with an interception in the end zone during the final seconds.  Ole Miss won the game by 23-17.  They were a 6 point home underdog at most books.

Alabama was the most wagered on side this weekend and the sportsbooks made out big with Mississippi’s huge win along with that other state’s team, Mississippi State, and their huge win over Texas A&M.

Rebels quarterback Bo Wallace hit Jaylen Walton for the game-winning touchdown to cap a 23-17 victory over No. 3 Alabama at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.

TCU also stunned Oklahoma as a +3.5 underdog.
