Randy’s Pick
You do have to question how motivated the Mississippi State Bulldogs will be for this game, as it’s a day after Thanksgiving, and it’s not a big name program. However, Mississippi State has been highly impressive through 5 games as it’s not only undefeated, but it’s also 5-0 ATS. Mississippi State is one of the best defensive teams in the country at the moment. Not stepping in front of that. I’ll lay the chalk.
