Mississippi State has enjoyed a two-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They will face off against the Arkansas Razorbacks at 12:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. Mississippi State will be strutting in after a win while Arkansas will be stumbling in from a loss.

Two weeks ago, Mississippi State was able to grind out a solid victory over Western Michigan, taking the game 41-28. The victory was just what Mississippi State needed coming off of a 40-17 loss in their prior match.

Will Rogers looked great while leading his team to the win, throwing for 189 yards and three touchdowns while completing 72.7% of his passes.

Meanwhile, Arkansas' recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Saturday after their fifth straight loss. They fell just short of Alabama by a score of 24-21. The over/under was set at 45 points, so nice work oddsmakers; you were right on the money.

Looking ahead, Arkansas is the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by seven points.
