That “State” script logo is here to stay. We’ve seen it on uniforms. Now we’re seeing it on the playing surface the the Bulldogs. It’s a magnificent step forward as Mississippi State can envision a fascinating future that is not reliant solely upon the same group of old tropes that it’s used to using.

Innovation and changes are coming. And that’s exciting to see.

Sure, there are throwbacks and vintage things and such. And that’s good. It’s good to embrace parts of MSU’s history. But it’s also good to be willing to adapt and change and break out of the old mold that MSU gets trapped in. Use the parts of Mississippi State’s past branding that are exciting and incorporate them in new ways.

And this new field design does a good job of innovating and building upon elements of MSU’s past.
