QB Tyler Bray, who has passed for 14 TD with 6 INT, leads UT and while he had 281 passing yards and 2 TD against Georgia he had 3 picks. He has a great WR corps with his 2 leading receivers averaging over 13 yards per catch and they will facing a MSU pass defense that ranks 31st in the nation.<\/p>\n<p>MSU&#8217;s run defense ranks 40th in the nation and their main goal is to contain Rajion Neal, who has rushed for over 100 yards in each of his last 2 games.
