The No. 8 Auburn Tigers are a tough team to face. For the Mississippi State football team to come away from this game with a win, the Bulldogs are going to need significant improvements in play across the entire board. However, there’s a few specific Bulldogs that could take a step forward in this game that would improve MSU’s chances right away.
If you were guessing that those improvements needed to come on the defensive side of the ball, then you’d be guessing wrong. The Mississippi State football team has played great defense in the past couple of weeks and that’s the side of the ball that has given MSU a chance at winning lately.
