MSU Returns Home To Host Troy in Non-Conference Tilt Mississippi State begins a three-game home stretch with back-to-back non-conference games beginning with Troy at 3 p.m. CT Saturday live on the SEC Network in Davis Wade Stadium.• State is coming off a 30-17 loss at No. 14 Texas A&M last Saturday. Sr. QB Dak Prescott accounted for 306 yards of total offense, and Jr. WR Fred Ross registered his third career 100-yard receiving game with 11 catches for 102 yards. MSU did not allow a TD in the second half. • Dan Mullen, the 2014 Maxwell Football National and SEC AP Coach of the Year, is one win away from becoming the third coach in MSU history to claim 50 victories (Allyn McKeen, Jackie Sherrill). Mullen owns the highest winning percentage at MSU since the College Football Hall of Famer McKeen from 1939-48 (.764, min. 3 seasons). Prior to Mullen’s arrival, MSU was 21-42. • MSU leads the all-time series with Troy, 3-1. The Bulldogs won the last meeting, 62-7, on Sept. 21, 2013 in Starkville. Dak Prescott had 286 yards of total offense in the win. • Dak Prescott, who is up for seven national awards, owns a 17-8 record as a starter and he has shattered 22 school records. For his career, the senior has scored 37 TDs (34 rush, 3 receiving) and been responsible for a school-record 82 TDs (48 passing, 34 rushing). For the season, Dak is 115-of-176 for 1,279 yards with seven touchdowns and no interceptions through the air. He has thrown a school-record 225 straight passes without an interception, a streak that stretches 21 quarters. That streak is currently the longest in the nation and the third-longest in SEC history.• Jr. LB Richie Brown leads MSU in tackles with 50, which ranks fourth in the SEC and 11th nationally. Brown has registered double-digit tackles in all but one game this season, including a career-best 13 at Auburn. His 50 tackles are the most by an MSU player through the first five games of a season since eventual 10-year NFL player Mario Haggan totaled 69 tackles. • Jr. DE A.J. Jefferson is tops on the squad in tackles for loss with 8.5, which ranks fourth in the SEC and 11th nationally. Jefferson has had at least one tackle for loss in six straight games. • Jr. WR Fred Ross is averaging 6.6 catches and 64.4 yards receiving per game. Ross’ 11 catches at Texas A&M were the most by a Bulldog since Eric Moulds’ school-record 15 catches vs. Tennessee on Sept. 23, 1995. Moulds and Ross are the only Bulldogs with 11-plus catches in the last 40 years.• MSU has won nine of its last 10 home games and is 19-4 at home in the last four seasons.

No one has had more of a profound impact on shaping Mississippi State football into a national contender than Dan Mullen. The 2014 National and Southeastern Conference Coach of the Year, Mullen is in his seventh season in Starkville after guiding the Bulldogs into unprecedented territory, including the fastest ascent from unranked to No. 1 in col-lege football history. Seven years into his tenure, Mullen (49-33, .598) owns the highest winning percentage as a State coach since the late Allyn McKeen from 1939-48 (.764), and he is third in school history in victories (49). Prior to Mullen’s arrival, the school record for consecutive bowl game appearances was three. Under his guidance, the Bulldogs have been to a school-record five consecutive bowl games, including their first Orange Bowl berth in 73 years in December 2014. No coach in school history had ever been a finalist for a national coach of the year honor until Mullen won the Maxwell Football Club’s National Coach of the Year award in 2014. He also claimed the Associated Press SEC Coach of the Year award that same fall. The 2014 season was arguably the best in school history as Mullen’s group won 10 regular season games for the first time and 10 overall for just the third time. The Bulldogs claimed six SEC wins -- the most by MSU since 1999 -- while finishing second in the dif-ficult SEC West. Mullen developed a team that went from unranked to No. 1 quicker than any in college football history (five weeks; Ohio State made the move in six weeks in 1964). The Bulldogs were the nation’s No. 1 team for the first time in 80 years of Associated Press polls follow-ing wins over No. 6 Texas A&M and No. 2 Auburn during a raucous stretch in Davis Wade Stadium. MSU became the first team since 1983 Auburn to defeat three consecu-tive top-10 ranked teams. The Bulldogs also became the first squad to hold the No. 1 rank-ing in the inaugural College Football Playoff poll.

The year was capped with a berth in the Orange Bowl for the first time since 1941. Mullen’s squad rewrote the MSU record books in 2014, shattering 22 single-season records, including 10 by National Player of the Year finalist Prescott. The Bulldogs led the SEC in total offense for the first time since 1982, putting up a school-record 513.8 yards per game. State earned its highest Associated Press poll finish since 1940 (No. 11), and it tied its highest finish ever in the USA Today Amway Coaches poll (No. 12). MSU has shattered 68 team or individual single-season and career statistical records under Mullen. The Bulldogs have also pro-duced a first-team All-America selection in five straight years. Linebacker Benardrick McKinney became the latest recipient in 2014 before being selected in the 2015 NFL Draft. Player development has been key in Mullen’s six previous seasons. Eighteen MSU players have been chosen in the NFL Draft under Mullen’s watch since 2010. The five selections in 2015 were the most through the first six rounds of a draft in school history and the most overall in a draft since a school-record five went in 1995. Of the five Bulldogs drafted, three earned “two stars” in high school, while two were “three-star” recruits before arriving in Starkville. An additional school-record seven players signed NFL free agent contracts following the 2015 NFL Draft. Off the field, Mullen’s players are constant achievers in the classroom and the community donating countless hours to the Starkville area and state of Mississippi. Twenty Bulldogs were named to the 2014 SEC Academic Fall Honor Roll. During Mullen’s entire six-year tenure at MSU, 110 players have earned the distinction of SEC Honor Roll recipient. Mullen has helped the program improve its NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) nearly every year in his tenure, including the SEC’s fourth-best football APR with a score of 974 in 2013. During the historic run to No. 1 in 2014, the Bulldogs’ 2.76 grade point average was the program’s highest ever while 20 of the 21 seniors have earned undergraduate degrees.

Second Nationally In Attendance Increase In Last 10 Years MSU is second nationally in percentage of average attendance increase in the last 10 years based on stadiums over 60,000 capacity. In 2004, State’s average attendance was 43,792, while in 2014 it was 61,127, marking a percentage increase of 39.6. MSU trails only Texas A&M, which saw a 41.1 percentage increase from 2004-14.

Fift h-Oldest Stadium in College Football History Stadium School Built Location 1. Franklin Field Penn 1895 Pennsylvania, Penn. 2. Harvard Harvard 1903 Boston, Mass. 3. Bobby Dodd Georgia Tech 1913 Atlanta, Ga. 4. Yale Bowl Yale 1913 New Haven, Conn. 5. Davis Wade Mississippi State 1914 Starkville, Miss.

While it may be one of the oldest in college football, it is in no way outdated. The $75-million renovation and expansion that was completed in 2014 makes it the only stadium among the top five oldest in FBS to be expanded since 2005.

Testimonials “Th e loudest game I have ever attended – start to fi nish – even postgame. You haven’t lived until you’ve heard ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ with accompaniment from 50,000 cowbells.” – Stewart Mandel, Fox Sports (10.11.14) following MSU’s 38-23 home win vs. No. 2 Auburn

“Th e environment Saturday at Davis Wade Stadium was as electric as any college sporting event you’re ever going to fi nd. It was the loudest stadium I’ve ever been in and it wasn’t just the cowbells. It was an awesome environment all the way around and great people.” – Chris Low, ESPN.com (10.11.14)

“Th e high-volume video board functions as a waterboard. Th en the fans add one more layer of sound by howling hysterically for four hours. It is an ear-splitting slice of hell for the visiting team. Of all the intimi-dating venues in America, I cannot imagine a single more oppressive place than previously sleepy Davis Wade Stadium.” – Pat Forde, Yahoo.com (10.11.14)

MSU Pulls Away From Southern Miss, 34-16Dak Prescott threw for two touchdowns, rushed for another and accounted for 309 yards of total off ense as Mississippi State pulled away from a much-improved Southern Miss squad, 34-16, in the fi rst meeting between the two teams in Hattiesburg since 1989. Brandon Holloway got the scoring going for the Bulldogs, answering a USM fi eld goal with a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown with 5:26 remaining in the fi rst quarter. Trailing 10-7 midway through the second quarter, Prescott found true freshman Justin Johnson for a 5-yard TD strike. Th e Bulldogs held USM short of the goal line on four straight plays from inside the 3-yard line to take a 14-10 lead into the half. Prescott culminated a nine-play, 95-yard drive escaping and fi nding Gus Walley for a 4-yard touchdown pass with 12:15 to go in the third quarter. Th e big play of the drive was Prescott’s 49-yard scamper down the sideline to set up the score. Westin Graves booted the fi rst made fi eld goals of his career to tack on the lead and Prescott closed the scoring with a 7-yard TD run with 5:55 remain-ing. Prescott fi nished with 72 yards on the ground and 237 yards through the air. Richie Brown was MSU’s leading tackler with 11 and one interception. A.J. Jeff erson notched seven tackles, including two sacks. Jeff erson provided the cru-cial fourth down stop that prevented the Golden Eagles from scoring before the fi rst half. Will Redmond added an interception.

MSU Rally Comes Up Short Against LSU, 21-19No. 25 MSU nearly overcame a 21-6 defi cit in the fourth quarter, but No. 14 LSU escaped with a 21-19 win in the Southeastern Conference opener in Davis Wade Stadium. Dak Prescott was a career-best 34-of-52 for 335 yards and one touchdown, including a 5-yard TD pass to De’Runnya Wilson with 4:00 to play that pulled the Bulldogs within two. Th e 34 completions set an MSU team and individual single-game record, breaking Prescott’s old mark of 33 set in the 2014 Orange Bowl. MSU came up short on the two-point conversion attempt when Prescott and Ashton Shumpert weren’t able to connect in the corner. Prescott was a perfect 6-of-6 on the 82-yard drive. Th e Bulldogs retained possession with 1:32 left in the game. Prescott again marched MSU down the fi eld from its own 11-yard line. However, Devon Bell’s 52-yard fi eld goal sailed wide right as time expired. Th e Tigers held the Bulldogs to only 43 rushing yards. MSU trailed 14-3 at the half at the hands of LSU’s Leonard Fournette who fi nished with 159 yards rushing and three touchdowns. For the second straight game, Richie Brown was the Bulldogs’ leading tackler with 11, including 1.5 for loss and one sack. A.J. Jeff erson collected two tackles for loss, while Kendrick Market had nine tackles.

Prescott, Red Zone D Stifle No. 25 Auburn, 17-9 Dak Prescott threw two touchdown passes and Mississippi State’s defense made four stops in the red zone to help the Bulldogs beat No. 25 Auburn 17-9 on Sat-urday night in Jordan-Hare Stadium. MSU recorded back-to-back wins over Auburn for the fi rst time since 1999-2000. Auburn missed on four possessions inside the 10 with new starting quarterback Sean White. On the game’s fi rst pos-session, White completed his fi rst four passes before throwing the ball straight into the hands of cornerback Will Redmond near the goal line. Near the end of the second quarter, the Tigers drove to the 2, but failed on two runs. Prescott was able to set his feet on nearly every throw, connecting with Gabe Myles for a 32-yard touchdown pass over the middle for a 7-0 lead in the fi rst and hitting Wilson down the right sideline for a 14-0 lead in the second. Prescott managed the clock effi ciently in the second half, helping the Bulldogs take a 17-6 lead late in the third on Westin Graves’ 44-yard fi eld goal. Auburn outgained MSU 389-326, including 201-56 on the ground. Richie Brown led all tacklers with a career-best 13 , including 12 solo stops, three for loss and two sacks. A.J. Jeff erson notched a forced fumble, two tackles for loss and one sack, continuing his streak of fi ve straight games with a tackle for loss. For the fi rst time in the Gus Malzahn era (since 2013), the Tigers failed to score a touchdown.

No. 14 Texas A&M Hot Start Too Much for No. 21 MSU, 30-17 Dak Prescott accounted for 306 yards of total off ense, but No. 14 Texas A&M’s 24-10 start proved to be too much to overcome for MSU in a 30-17 loss at Kyle Field. Th e Aggies started the game with a 12-play, 91-yard drive that was cul-minated on a fourth down conversion at the 1-yard line with Kyle Allen fi nding Ricky Seal-Jones. MSU responded with a fi eld goal on its fi rst possesion, but A&M answered with a 73-yard drive in 2:06 to make the defi cit double-digits. Th e critical point came late in the second quarter. Aft er true freshman Malik Dear scampered 52 yards for a touchdown, MSU had the momentum and the football again with 1:58 to play. Th e Aggies forced a three-and-out and Allen marched them down the fi eld for another score. A&M tallied 330 yards of total off ense in the fi rst half but was limited to only two fi eld goals in the fi nal two quarters. MSU had chances to cut into the lead but two costly turnovers on fum-bles by De’Runnya Wilson and Aeris Williams halted Bulldog drives. Fred Ross fi nished with a game-high 11 receptions and 103 yards receiving. Richie Brown and Beniquez Brown each fi nished with a game-high 11 tackles. Th e attendance of 104,445 was the largest crowd Mississippi State has ever played in front of.
