    The Wake Forest Demon Deacons (1-1) welcome the No. 5 Ole Miss Rebels (2-0) to Allegacy Federal Credit Union Stadium Saturday. Kickoff in the ACC-SEC clash is set for 6:30 p.m. ET (The CW Network). Below, we look at Ole Miss vs. Wake Forest odds from FanDuel Sportsbook before making our expert college football picks and predictions later in the week.

    Ole Miss is No. 5 in the US LBM Coaches Poll. It beat up on Furman in its season-opening battle with a 76-0 win as a 45-point favorite Aug. 31. It then took on Middle Tennessee at home and won 52-3 Sept. 7, covering as a 42-point favorite. QB Jaxson Dart has been the real deal, throwing for 795 yards with 6 TDs and no interceptions through 2 games.

    Wake Forest beat the North Carolina A&T Aggies 45-13 to open the season Aug. 29, but failed to cover as a 33.5-point favorite. It then drew the Virginia Cavaliers and lost 31-30 Sept. 7, pushing as a 1-point home underdog. QB Hank Bachmeier has been running the show in Winston-Salem and has thrown for 4 TDs and no interceptions through 2 games.

    Ole Miss vs. Wake Forest head-to-head

    There isn’t a very detailed history between these programs. Wake Forest has won both matchups, but the 2 sides haven’t competed since September 2008. They have only competed in September, so early-season matchups have been when they’ve met.

    Wake Forest won 30-28 at home Sept. 6, 2008. It also won 27-3 on the road in 2006. QB Riley Skinner was the star of the show in 2008, throwing for 267 yards and 2 TDs in the 2-point victory. That said, it’s likely Ole Miss gets its first win in the all-time series Saturday.
