Why Mississippi State can cover
Mike Leach’s Air Raid offense is difficult to slow down. The Bulldogs have the fifth-most passing yards in the FBS. Will Rogers‘ efficiency under center has powered their passing success. His proficiency has broken down opposing secondaries all year.
Rogers has thrown for 3,307 yards this year. Only two quarterbacks top that mark, but they can’t match his accuracy. Rogers has a 75.2 percent completion rate and has thrown for 23 touchdowns with eight interceptions. Rogers has amassed 1,628 passing yards and 14 passing touchdowns in four road games. His road production has helped Mississippi State stay close against quality opponents. The Bulldogs haven’t lost by more than three points as visitors this season.
Why Auburn can cover
Auburn is 4-1 at home and has only lost to No. 1 Georgia at Jordan-Hare Stadium. The Tigers have had plenty of success preventing teams from reaching the end zone. Their ability to get stops has helped them secure four double-digit wins as hosts.
Ole Miss’s Matt Corral ranks 15th in passing yards (2,527) and was held to zero passing touchdowns for the first time this season against Auburn two weeks ago. The Tigers haven’t given up a passing touchdown in their previous two games. If Auburn continues to excel, the visitors could have difficulty keeping up their usual scoring pace to cover.
