When MSU and Auburn hook up on the football field, it's usually a nail biter. This year will be no different, and MSU has a great opportunity to win a game that nobody will give them a chance in.
Dan Mullen reached several first-time accomplishments in the SEC West during Mississippi State's rise to No. 1. For starters, he went on the road and defeated LSU in the always-hostile environment that is Death Valley. Two weeks later, he slowed down Texas A&M's high-powered offense and cruised to an easy win. It was the first time Mullen defeated either team since he got to Starkville.
