Mississippi State 87, Southeastern Louisiana 49:Â The MSU offense seems legit so far, averaging 98 points in its first two games. Southeastern Louisiana returns only five players from last season and replaced four of its starters, so it’s still unclear exactly what kind of team the Lions are. A 10-point road loss to a good UAB team could mean something, but MSU should be able to coast to another decisive win.
