Mississippi State has averaged a solid 78 points per game while giving up 84 PPG on the road this season. The numbers drop to 75 for their offense and 77.4 for their defense overall in conference games but still point to an OVER in this game. Miss St. defense has been especially generous in recent road games allowing 98 to Auburn, 88 to Ole Miss, 71 to Alabama and 91 to Tennessee. In all four games their opponent scored more points than their seasonal average. Georgia’s defense has been a strength this season, but they’ve tailed off in recent games allowing 72 or more points in four straight SEC games.
