Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns: Mississippi State wins 56-10 (Grade A)

Louisiana was a decent team that gave everything it could, and it only managed to score 10 points on the Mississippi State football defense. It showed just how good this defense could be.

The offense clicked on all cylinders in this game. The running game looked good, and Nick Fitzgerald had one of his best games passing the ball.

We thought it was precursor of things to come. We learned a harsh lesson the next two weeks.
