The Mississippi State football team takes on the the LSU Tigers in the hopes of putting their season back on track for one that fans will remember for years.

When the Mississippi State football team takes the field against the LSU Tigers, they will be looking to restore the prospects of a special season. It won’t be easy against the 5th ranked LSU Tigers.

ESPN  will be the broadcasting network. Many thought this was a game the Mississippi State football team would be favored in when the season started. But after two disappointing losses to Kentucky and Florida combined with some big wins by the LSU Tigers, LSU enters the game as the favorite.

The Mississippi State football team is coming off a bye so they should be well rested when they take the field tonight. LSU is coming off a big win over the Georgia Bulldogs and propelled themselves into the top 5.

Here is what I’ll be looking for as the game plays out this evening.

Will Joe Moorhead run the same offense he used against Auburn?

There is no doubt that Joe Moorhead had different ideas about what the offense would look like when he took over as the head coach of the Mississippi State football program. But the team he inherited is built in a different manner. He seemed to learn it’s not best to run the offense he wanted against Auburn and to run the offense that helps his players.
