Mississippi State Betting Trends

Mike Leach enters this year’s Egg Bowl desperate for a victory after having lost each of the past two match-ups.

Quarterback Will Rogers arrives brimming with confidence after throwing for 301 yards and five touchdowns in the Bulldogs’ victory over East Tennessee State last week. Predictably, Rogers has racked up the numbers in Leach’s Air Raid offense. The junior pivot has thrown for nearly 3,500 yards with 32 touchdowns and just 5 interceptions.

Even more impressively, Mississippi State has put up 33.5 points per game and nearly 400 yards of offense on the back of Rogers arm.

On the other side of the football, the Bulldogs are vulnerable against the run. However, Mississippi State has been fantastic at forcing opponents into mistakes. The Bulldogs defensive unit has come up with turnovers at opportune times all season, forcing 21 so far. If the Bulldogs can ramp up the pressure on Jaxson Dart, and create chaos, they’ll have a shot at a Thanksgiving upset.

Wins over Auburn and East Tennessee State don’t exactly inspire confidence. A win over Ole Miss, on the other hand, would help the Bulldogs secure a more favorable bowl game in the post-season. However, Mississippi State is 0-4 against the spread in their last 4 SEC games.

Ole Miss Betting Trends

After an unbelievable start to the season, Ole Miss’ campaign has fallen off the rails over the past few weeks.

A blistering 7-0 beginning had Rebels fans thinking College Football Playoff. Regrettably, losses to LSU and Alabama curtailed that expectation quickly. Despite that, Ole Miss remains a dangerous football team, with plenty to build on for next season.

Lane Kiffin has reeled in his pass-happy roots to unleash a devastating rushing attack.

Ole Miss RB Quinshon Judkins against Alabama:

-25 carries for 135-yards and 2 TD’s

Judkins now has 15 rushing TD’s, the single-season leader in Ole Miss history.

With 1,171 yards, he’s 141-yards away from the single-season rushing record.

The Rebels have averaged an impressive 505 yards of total offense and 278 rushing yards per game. Led by freshman running back Quinshon Judkins the Ole Miss rushing attack has been a sight to behold.

One of the most impressive prospects in the nation, Judkins and veteran Zach Evans have wreaked havoc on opponents’ game plans all year long. Judkins has averaged nearly 6 yards per carry while racking up 1385 yards and 16 touchdowns. To have a chance of pulling off the upset, the Bulldogs must slow down this backfield.

Ole Miss is in a bad spot here, as the underdog has covered the spread in 6 of the last 7 meetings between Mississipi and Mississippi State.

Mississippi State vs Ole Miss Prediction
