OUR PREDICTION: LSU’s formula is simple: Play great defense and rely on Derrius Guice to wear down opponents. But Mississippi State has the quarterback in Nick Fitzgerald and a running game that is averaging 6.8 yards per carry with Aeris Williams. It’s been difficult to win in Starkville recently and even though the Tigers have looked strong to open the season, the Bulldogs won’t lay down without a fight.
