Mississippi State eye a crucial SEC win as they look to exploit Missouri’s rookie quarterback and one-dimensional ground attack. Can the Bulldogs’ superior secondary and aggressive defensive scheme bottle up Ahmad Hardy, who leads the Tigers’ offense behind a stout veteran line? Jaron Spor and Landon McBride break down Mississippi State’s plan to sell out against the run, the impact of Isaac Smith’s absence, and whether Brett Norfleet’s potential return could shift red zone matchups.

On the flip side, Missouri’s ferocious pass rush—anchored by Zion Young and Damon Wilson II—threatens to disrupt the Bulldogs’ offense. Does Mississippi State’s dynamic receiver corps have the edge against an opportunistic but not turnover-heavy Tigers secondary? The hosts highlight injury updates for Blake Shapen and Albert Reese, debate quarterback options, and both pick the Bulldogs to pull off a gritty, low-scoring upset in a pivotal SEC clash.
