Challenges for Mississippi State
This should be a fine game to watch for fans that enjoy wide-open offenses. State has been sound on defense so far this season. Memphis takes its offense to another level having scored a combined 97 points in its first two games. If the MSU defense falters, can the MSU offense keep up with the Tigers in scoring?
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 3:00 PM CT (4:00 PM ET). You can watch this SEC football game on the ESPN2 Network.
