The Mississippi State football team is battling with Kansas State so far

The Kansas State Wildcats came to play in the first half and the Mississippi State football team has been playing sloppy throughout that same period. But, right now the Bulldogs currently maintain a two touchdown lead on the road in Manhattan, Kansas.

As it stands right now, the Mississippi State football team is up 17-3 on the Kansas State Wildcats. It hasn’t been easy for the Bulldogs to get this point, but MSU is here right now thanks to a couple of big touchdowns from Kylin Hill and a clutch field goal from Jace Christmann early on to start the scoring.

This game probably won’t be any easier throughout the second half for MSU.

Kansas State is playing a very physical brand of football that is challenging the Bulldogs right now. MSU has also made its fair share of mistakes and that needs to be cleaned up sooner rather than later.

But the Bulldogs still have a lead. We have some thoughts on the first half of the Mississippi State football game against Kansas State.
