The Bulldogs have just made their November a LOT easier in 2019. FBschedules tweeted out the scoop last week:
Abilene Christian's future football game at Mississippi State in 2019 has been pushed back from Oct. 12 to Nov. 23.

While this news may seem minor, this means that the Bulldogs will AVOID playing Alabama, Arkansas, and Ole Miss 3 game in a row. And with the Egg Bowl moving to Thursday Nights, this move was needed for State in the future. The Bulldogs will still have to play 3 SEC West games in a row in 2017 and 2018, but the good news is there is a non SEC game before Alabama this year.
