Oregon State Beavers vs. Mississippi State Bulldogs Prediction

Sure Mississippi State has the better record, but neither club has impressed with soft schedules. The Bulldogs were an underwhelming 65-59 victor over lowly Northwestern State in their latest and it is apparent that they’re missing G Quinndary Weatherspoon and his 18.8 points per game. The visitor plus the points is the way to go in this game.
