Nothing good game out of the Mississippi State football game against the Florida Gators
The Mississippi State football team lost to Dan Mullen and the Florida Gators tonight. The Bulldogs couldn’t produce a single touchdown when they were facing the man that manufactured Mississippi State’s offense.
There’s plenty to be mad about when it comes to discussing this game. The Bulldogs completely failed on offense, punting was an issue, and the Bulldogs lost in an incredibly emotional game against Dan Mullen. Joe Moorhead, the current Mississippi State football coach, deserves to be criticized for how the offense has performed for two weeks in a row now.
If this Mississippi State team continues to lose, the fanbase is going to continue to lose faith in Moorhead and this coaching staff. Moorhead was supposed to be an offensive guru that was going to revolutionize an already efficient and solid Bulldogs’ offense.
Instead, things have suffered for the second week in a row.
There was one bright spot in all of this: Mississippi State didn’t commit any penalties all game. However, that is honestly nothing to celebrate. And, well, there’s nothing to celebrate from Mississippi State’s game against Florida.
Here’s five thoughts on the Bulldogs’ failures against Dan Mullen and the Florida Gators.
