Meanwhile, the Mississippi State Bulldogs' only win came in their season opener against the FCS level Eastern Kentucky Colonels.

They have lost all six of their games against FBS opponents, allowing at least 30 points in each. Look for the Razorbacks offense to move the ball at ease against a struggling Bulldogs defense as they win by at least seven points.
