2023 Peach Bowl Betting Lines - Mississippi vs. Penn State Odds

Peach Bowl Lines - Mississippi vs. Penn State Odds

After much debate, the No. 11 Ole Miss Rebels have secured a New Year's Six bowl berth, slated to face the No. 10 Penn State Nittany Lions in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl in Atlanta on December 30. For much of the last two weeks, the Rebels have been projected outside of the New Year's Six field, typically paired with the Iowa Hawkeyes in the Citrus Bowl, but late last night, the Rebels earned an early projection for the Cotton Bowl vs. the Ohio State Buckeyes. Even though this projection in itself did not pan out, Ole Miss managed to squeak into the field, thanks in large part to the Florida State Seminoles failing to reach the College Football Playoff.
