Mississippi State vs Georgia Prediction
Mississippi State and Georgia have cooled off the last couple of weeks, so anything could happen in this spot. With that said Mississippi State has taken a back seat offensively these last few weeks and has failed to cover seven straight games. While you can say Georgia isn’t playing great ball in its own right, it’s at home, where it’s 13-1 SU on the year. Georgia has also won most of its games in the favorite role this season and will have the best player on the floor. We’re laying a bucket. Give me the Georgia Bulldogs at home, where they’re one of the best teams in the SEC.
