Below, we look at Mississippi State vs. Kentucky odds from Tipico Sportsbook; check back for all our college football picks and predictions.
Mississippi State is 3-0 in its last 3 games, beating Arkansas 40-17 last week. In the Bulldogs’ last 10 games, they are 7-3 and have looked solid so far this season. They have scored 39 points or more in each game this season except for their sole loss against LSU in which they only scored 16. QB Will Rogers is playing great this season, completing 71.6% of his passes for an FBS-leading 2,110 yards. The Mississippi State offense is averaging 38.5 points per game, good for 22nd best in the nation.
After a 4-0 start and climbing as high as No. 8 in the country, Kentucky has lost 2 in a row. The Wildcats suffered a disappointing 24-14 home loss to South Carolina Saturday with star QB Will Levis out with a foot injury. The Wildcats are 8-2 in their last 10 games, finding themselves suddenly fighting for their season after this 2-game skid. They’re averaging 26.3 points per game to rank 87th.
