Auburn is coming off its best performance of the season in a 48-11 victory over LSU last Saturday and will take some momentum into the matchup against Mississippi State in Starkville this coming Saturday afternoon.

The Bulldogs pulled out a close 24-17 victory over Vanderbilt this past Saturday to win its second game of the year, it’s first victory since the season-opening win over LSU.

The experts at BetMGM don’t think highly of the Bulldogs’ chances against Gus Malzahn and the Tigers as Auburn is currently a 13.5-point favorite.

Mike Leach’s offense put up 44 points against LSU in the season-opening win but have scored a total of 54 points since in five games. It is Leach’s first season in charge in Starkville and numerous players have decided to transfer or opt out of the season, including star running back Kylin Hill.

Here are the lines for the other SEC action this coming weekend:
