The odds have been released for this weekend's games, and the Bulldogs are solid underdogs.
Mississippi State enters its contest with Alabama fresh off of a dismantling of Missouri. Alabama enters the contest after crushing LSU Saturday night. The folks making the odds must respect the Tigers from Baton Rouge more than the Tigers in Columbia because the Crimson Tide enters as a touchdown favorite over the Bulldogs for their tilt in Starkville.
On the season, Mississippi State is 6-3 against the spread while Alabama checks in at 4-5. Of course, in on the scoreboard play, Alabama stands at 8-1, and Mississippi State holds a 7-2 record.
