Pick
I’m sticking with Mississippi State here. The Bulldogs need this win badly and while Texas A&M is on a nice run, I think they’ve reached their peak and are due to regress a little bit in a tough road environment in Starkville. The Bulldogs match up fairly well with the Aggies and I think at home, they find a way to get it done here.
