Post-practice fight leads to Music City Bowl QB change for Mississippi State

It’s been a wild year for Mississippi State when it comes to shuffling players in and out at the quarterback position. As it turns out, the Bulldogs saved their strangest QB switch for the very end of the season.

According to David H. Murray of 247 Sports, Mississippi State will start senior Tommy Stevens at quarterback and not freshman Garrett Shrader. This comes less than a week after Bulldogs head coach Joe Moorhead stated definitively during his meeting with the media that Shrader would continue to be his guy at QB.

So why the sudden change?
