Upset Alert

Everything is telling me that Alabama will soundly beat Mississippi State… everything but one. Mississippi State QB Kamario Taylor is maybe the most entertaining and electrifying player in college football. If anyone is going to repeat Johnny Manziel’s performance against the Tide, it will be him. Give me the Bulldogs at home against the Tide as 6.5 point underdogs.
