Challenges for Mississippi State

The Bulldogs challenge is to keep on improving. Over the past few games State has shown significant improvement and lot of that has to do with the success of freshman quarterback Will Rogers. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, that hasn’t resulted in a win over the past few two games. However, this Auburn team, while pretty sound, is beatable. They’ve got five wins but that number could easily be three with a different bounce of the ball here and there. If Will Rogers can continue his sound play while the Bulldog defense plays tough, I think that State could win this one.

Saturday‘s game kicks off at 6:30 PM CT (7:30 PM ET). You can watch this Mississippi State football game on the SEC Network.
