Dak Prescott wins Walter Payton’s 2022 Man of the Year Award.
Former Mississippi State Bulldogs’ quarterback, Dak Prescott, received the Man of the Year Award in Thursday night’s NFL Honors award ceremony. Mississippi State Bulldog fans already know how great of a man Dak Prescott truly is, and it was really neat to see the rest of the world honor him last night.
Dak Prescott finished the 2022 NFL season with 2,860 yards, 24 touchdowns, and only played 12 games. All in all, it was not Prescott’s best season due to many interceptions, but he looks to bring the Dallas Cowboys back to the playoffs in the 2023-2024 NFL season.
Mississippi State Bulldogs Basketball is back in action tomorrow.
The Mississippi State basketball team is on a four-game winning streak. They are playing some of the basketball they have played all year. After defeating TCU, South Carolina, Missouri, and LSU, the Bulldogs look to keep the streak alive tomorrow night vs. the Arkansas Razorbacks.
The Mississippi State Bulldogs are currently 16-8 and 4-7 in the conference. The Bulldogs finished non-conference play with only one loss on the season. Mississippi State’s eight losses are against the Drake Bulldogs, the Alabama Crimson Tide (twice), the Tennessee Volunteers (twice), the Georgia Bulldogs, the Auburn Tigers, and the Florida Gators.
Mississippi State’s women’s basketball team is on a roll.
The Mississippi State Bulldogs are coming off yet another win vs. an SEC opponent. This time it was against the Florida Gators, but before that, it was against the Tennessee Lady Volunteers in double overtime.
Sam Purcell has these Lady Bulldogs playing some of the best basketball Mississippi State Bulldogs fans have seen since Vic Schaefer. The Mississippi State Bulldogs are currently 17-7 and 6-5 in SEC play. The Lady Bulldogs are currently in 6th place overall in the SEC. Expect to see more from the Lady Bulldogs and Sam Purcell as they inch closer to tournament time.
