There are a lot of reasons why Miss State enters this game as the #1 team in the country, but none bigger than the presence of QB Dak Prescott. Prescott's leadership and ability on the field closely resemble what Tim Tebow did for Florida. He instills confidence in the rest of the team, and always seems to be under control. He has thrown for 15 TDs at nine yards per attempt, and has run for 664 yards and 10 more scores. That makes this team nasty in the red-zone because there is also Josh Robinson in the backfield and his 10 TDs as well. While Arkansas has been competitive, they have not won an SEC game in over two calendar years, and were exposed in their last SEC game vs. Georgia by their punishing ground game, so I expect more of the same in this one. Arkansas is 1-6 ATS in their last seven trips here, and Miss State is 10-2 ATS in their last 12, including 7-1 ATS in conference play in their last eight. Give the points on Mississippi State.
