Mike Leach and the Mississippi State Bulldogs are back in action in Starkville this evening! After a couple disappointing road losses and then a bye week, MSU is back home for the first time in a WHILE. And the Bulldogs definitely need a good home game to get going back in the right direction.
That’s what this game can be.
Mississippi State is facing a fairly dysfunctional, head coach-less Auburn Tigers team tonight. That presents a great chance to go out and dominate and get a really solid win. A victory over Auburn would also secure a bowl berth for the Bulldogs. And that would be nice!
Of course, if the Bulldogs don’t show up and they make a multitude of mistakes, then this season could very well get ugly in a hurry. MSU’s next opponent happens to be the Georgia Bulldogs, who are currently crushing the Tennessee Vols. And then in a couple weeks we’ll see State take a trip to Oxford for the Egg Bowl.
So a win would over Auburn be a good thing, but it’s expected. A loss would be a huge red flag that something is wrong and things could go sideways in a hurry.
Anyways, this is a game thread. It’s a place to comment if you’d like to comment and engage with other Mississippi State fans. I used to post these often over at another Mississippi State blog several years back. Let’s revive them and bring them here.
