Why the Mississippi State Bulldogs will win

  • Mississippi State has won seven of its last eight games against non-AP-ranked opponents at a neutral venue.

Mississippi State vs Utah Prediction

Neither Mississippi State nor Utah has played anybody up to this point, so we’re going to learn a lot from both sides. Utah is always a tough-minded team that defends well, but I question if there’s enough offensive firepower to scare the Bulldogs. The Mississippi State Bulldogs are experienced and deep as they’re a top-25 scoring team through three Games but have just two double-digit scorers. Mississippi State is a dangerous sleeper in the SEC. I’ll lay the reasonable chalk with the Bulldogs.
