Mississippi State vs Texas Tech: AutoZone Liberty Bowl, What’s Going To Happen
The Mike Leach angle will be played up, but it won’t be that big of a deal – if any – during the game.
The system will work, the passing game will rock against the leaky Red Raider defense, and both sides will throw and throw some more – running game aficionados need not watch.
Mississippi State will be a whole lot sharper, the defense will be a whole lot more efficient, and the team will be in control of the game throughout.
The Texas Tech team that lost four of its last five games will have a few good moments, but not enough to overcome a massive day from Will Rogers.
