Last season when these two teams met LSU struggled mightily to slow down the Bulldogs offense. I really can't see that changing this year, especially looking at how LSU played against UCLA. Mississippi State’s rushing attack is dreadful to non-existent but that is really nothing new for a Mike Leach offense. The Bulldogs surprisingly was the fourth-best defense in the conference last year. I think Mississippi St. Can make some stops on defense and I don't think LSU can.
