Mississippi State was supposed to be the better team when it headed to Auburn last weekend, and statistically it was, LSU vs Miss State Spreads 2011 College Football Lines Week 3outpacing the Tigers 531 yards to 381. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, yardage totals do not determine the winner as the defending national champs dumped Dan Mullen's squad 41-34 at Jordan-Hare Stadium.

Despite tomorrow night's game being a home affair for Chris Relf and company, it will not be any easier than last week's meeting with Auburn. LSU has owned Mississippi State for the better part of two decades, losing to the Bulldogs just one time since 1992. The Tigers current win streak against their divisional rival hit 11 games with last year's 29-7 victory (five MSU turnovers) in Baton Rouge.

Four of the last five games between these two teams in Starkville have been blowouts in LSU's favor with the Tigers winning by an average 31.2 points per contest. The 2009 meeting was much closer, though, with Miles' crew escaping 30-26.

Through two games LSU has looked like the more sound team, earning wins over Oregon (40-27) and Northwestern State (49-3), but the Bulldogs are certainly on a level playing with the Tigers in terms of talent. Given the closing talent gap, expect the Bulldogs to be in this one for four quarters, in fact, despite all the recent history, the wrong team is favored here. 

That's right, the Bulldogs end the Tigers streak tomorrow night with an "upset" victory.
