MSU's path to Atlanta may have been halted, but the parity in the SEC could lend itself as a benefit to State's chances for 9 wins.
Like much of the season, this past weekend was a little odd for the SEC. Only 3 undefeated teams remain, and if you had told me that it would be A&M, LSU, and Florida, I would've laughed in your face. We're 5 games into the season, and MSU has already been practically eliminated from a chance at getting to Atlanta. But this season is far from over. And given the weirdness of the SEC this year, a shot at 9 wins for this team is still likely.
