Orange Bowl 2014 Live Stream and Radio Broadcast: Preview of Mississippi vs Georgia Tech
ByThis year's Discover Orange Bowl between the Mississippi State Bulldogs (7) and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (12) appears to be as evenly matched on paper as possible.
This year's Georgia Tech team looks a lot like last year's Auburn squad, running the ball relentlessly with a vicious read option. With Dak Prescott under center and Josh Robinson in the backfield, the Bulldogs can mount their own rushing attack.

The Yellow Jackets lost the ACC title game to Florida State, while Mississippi State appeared to be on their way to the College Football Playoff (CFP) until two late losses derailed them. Mississippi State beat Auburn earlier in the year and held them to 23 points, but Georgia Tech may be a different animal all together.
"When you get to Georgia Tech who runs a very unique scheme with a veer and trap option and the load option and the Belly G option, those are plays that don't have a lot of crossover," Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen said in a pregame press conference. "Your scout team is learning everything new and learning it like a whole new deal. There's not even a point of reference a lot for them to go do it. For our players, this is how we fit the zone play. When you're running the veer option it's going to fit very, very differently. I think that's the really unique challenge is their offense is such an outlier from everybody else in college football it's hard to prepare for."
