It’s a great day to be a Bulldog! We are ranked as high as 3rd in the nation. Mississippi State football is at its finest.
The first time these two teams met was in 1905. The two teams have met every year since 1955. Last year they were victorious with a last second touchdown. This year we will help to honor the 100th anniversary of Scott Field with a great victory.
HOLD THAT TIGER – Auburn is coming to town! We are ready for another big SEC win. ESPN College Game Day is making its first ever appearance in The Junction, so let’s show them what tailgating Mississippi State style is all about.
