Mississippi State vs Wake Forest Preview
Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl
The Bulldogs were ready to go with high expectations after last season, but only finished 7-6 this season. They figured on a better record, but in a tough tough SEC it was just not happening. They will be looking to play for pride against Wake Forest. It shouldn't hurt recruiting either. Wake Forest had a year where they looked good and looked bad at different times, but could certainly put it on Mississippi State if they don't look out. This is a dangerous team if you don't watch your back.
Mississippi split time at quarterback between Russell and Relf. Waake Forest went with Price who threw for 2,803 yards and 20 touchdowns. Mississippi State is a run first team with Ballard carrying the bulk at 179 for 1009 yards and 8 touchdowns. Wake Forest has two runners over 100 carries, with Pendergrass being the dominate runner with 750 yards and 8 touchdowns. Mississippi St. spreads the ball around, not an offensive power house Clark is their best receiver with 28 catches. Givens and Campanaro are great receivers, Givens has 74 receptions while Campanaro the possession guy has 63. Givens has 1276 yards and 9 touchdowns.
Mississippi State will start fast as they always do. They like to get out ahead of a team. They're tough to stop, and then they pound you, but Wake has the offense to get back into it. I feel that Wake is just the sleeping giant in the ACC that will bring that conference back. I see this one going Wake's way 28-17.
