College football odds Week 7: How to bet Mississippi State-Kentucky

Mississippi State Bulldogs will look to continue their winning streak when they travel to Kentucky to face the Wildcats who are on a two-game losing streak. Which SEC team can come out on top in Week 7 of the college football season?

Mississippi State is riding high. The Bulldogs are averaging nearly 40 points per game, and they're coming off three-straight wins, including a convincing win over Texas A&M in Week 5.

On the backs of their defense, the Wildcats were on the cusp of jumping into the ranks of the college football elite. But since they lost consecutive games to Ole Miss and South Carolina, that conversation is effectively over.
