Ranking the Best Seasons in Mississippi State Football History

After last season, I decided to look back and see where it stacked up with other great teams in Bulldog football history.

There has always been a debate as to what teams in Mississippi State history are the best ever, especially after this past season. After having a year like 2014, I decided to look back at the greatest football seasons in Mississippi State history. The rank goes from bottom to top, starting with #5 and ending with #1.

5. 1980 (9-3, 5-1)

Entering the 1980 season, Mississippi State was coming off of NCAA probation from former head coach Bob Tyler and had a 3-8 season in 1979 under first year head coach Emory Bellard.
