When Is Mississippi State Football Most Likely To Host SEC Nation In 2018?
By Ethan Lee
September 29th, Mississippi State Football vs Florida
Storylines galore.
Mississippi State will be facing the man who built the Bulldogs into what they are today. Dan Mullen returned to the Swamp to win titles after developing himself as a head coach. Both sides of this matchup will be invested in what this game can be.
One side may be more invested than the other given how Scott Stricklin, a Mississippi State alum and former athletic director, came in and hired Mullen away from MSU.
This game is still early enough in the season that, despite what level of hype the teams have coming into the season, people will be more than invested because neither team SHOULD have awful losses to take away from this game.
Florida plays Charleston Southern, Kentucky, Colorado State, and at Tennessee before arriving in Starkville. Mississippi State faces Stephen F. Austin, goes to Kansas State, returns home to play Louisiana Lafayette, goes to Kentucky, and will then come back to play Florida.
Both teams should be 4-0 before this matchup.
