4* Free Week 4 NCAA Betting Prediction: Mississippi State +5
South Carolina has struggled with turnovers in their passing game lately.
The Bulldogs D-Line has to get pressure on Spencer Rattler Saturday and I think they’re up to the task.
MS State may even steal a W on the road in this one. A few timely turnovers and this SEC clash could get crazy.
As the away underdogs, I’m leaning towards Mississippi State to cover the spread at +5, as they’re 5-1 in their last 6 games.
