Dan Mullen and Mississippi State needed a win today. The Bulldogs needed to find a way to come away victorious against the Tigers if they wanted to find a way to be bowl eligible. But very little went Mississippi State’s way in today’s game.
Things looked promising to start. Kivon Coman had an early interception that ignited the passion amongst the fans and energized the entire stadium, but the rest of the first half was abysmal for the Bulldogs.
The Bulldogs failed to even slow the Auburn offense in the first half. A 3 yard pass from Sean White got the Tigers on the board to start the scoring, and from there things fell apart for State’s defense.
