If there’s anything we know about the Mississippi State / LSU series, it’s that wins are hard to come by for the Bulldogs. We’ve experienced exactly two of them over the last 24 years (1999, 2014). There have been some close calls like in 2000 or 2009 or 2015 and there have been a number of blowouts too. For the 2016 edition, the Tigers are favored once again but there’s reason to believe State could pull off the upset…
1. Quarterback play for LSU – by now you’ve heard the name Danny Etling. He took over for Brandon Harris against Jacksonville State and did pretty well, but not great.
