Don't miss out on our NCAAF POD. We are 2-1 in our last 3 NCAAF plays as Monday night's loss with Virginia Tech really hurt. Still feel like we were on the right side in that game and I saw Virginia Tech lose that game on special teams and stupid referree flags. Tonight will be different and I guarantee a win or tomorrow is FREE!
Mullen's offense is now fully installed and we already saw the benefits against Memphis where they won 49-7 in week 1. They split two QB's with different talents and have an above average receiving corp that will give Auburn lots of troubles. Don't get me wrong Cameron Newton appears to be the real deal, but if you remember Mullen recruited him when he was at Florida and knows a lot about the dual threat QB that broke the rushing record for a single game by a QB for Auburn last week. That's not why Auburn doesn't cover it will be their inability to play defense. Add in the significant improvement from Miss State's offense with Chad Bumphis, Brandon HEavens and Leon Berry catchign passes and I'm confident this team is going to shock some viewers. I think Miss State is strong up front and they have some leaders in the linebacking corps that could stop the run of Newton.
Auburn gave up 26 points to Arkansas State. Arkansas State one of the worst teams in the Sun Belt last year only scored more than 26 points three times all of last year against three SUn Belt opponents in Troy Flint, and North Texas. The big problem is in the passing game which is now the Miss State's strength of the passing game. The combo of Tyler Russell and Chris Relf threw for 372 yards against Marshall and completed 20-25 passes. Expect much of the same at home and I expect Cameron Newton to get rattled early in the largest home crowd the Bulldogs will ever have. YOu'll hear plenty of cowbells.
