Mississippi State doesn’t have a midweek game in the coming week. Bulldogs head coach John Cohen couldn’t be more thankful.
Following MSU’s series victory over Alabama on Saturday, State’s eighth-year leader expressed a sense of relief that his banged-up Bulldogs won’t have to hit the field again until Thursday at home against Missouri.
“There’s no question, I feel like this couldn’t come at a better time,” Cohen said. “Everything was condensed this week with the game in Pearl (on Tuesday) and then (this weekend’s) Thursday-Friday-Saturday format. Our kids really gutted through that, but they need some rest.
