Mississippi State has a winning record and looks to bounce back after a bad loss to No. 14 LSU. The Bulldogs have a strong balance on offense with senior QB Will Rogers (5 TDs, no picks) and senior RB Jo'Quavious Marks (325 yards, 6.4 yards per carry). After losing last September to LSU, Mississippi State won the next three easily, including a 42-24 rout of No. 17 Texas A&M. South Carolina has one win over Furman and two double-digit losses to North Carolina and Georgia. The ground game is nonexistent averaging just 1.8 yards per carry, which explains why their QBs have been sacked 13 times in three games. College football favorites of -3.5 to -10 points like South Carolina that allow 100 or fewer rushing yards per game are 27-60 ATS after getting 75 or fewer yards rushing on offense in the previous contest. Play Mississippi State.
