Mississippi State Football is a joke

[theboardref]

During their SEC takeover they showed a game from last season against Arkansas, and now feel that this mediocre, unimpactful game which has no bearing on National or Conference Title implications needs a 30 miniute in depth walk through. This is featuring player interviews. Please don't fire Dan Mullens, he is one of two coaches I enjoy seeing every year. Need moar cowbell to make anyone recognize we have football!

They're also a joke because Simmons

SEC Football: Mississippi State Bulldogs vs. LSU Tigers - Box Score - Sep 20, 2014

One time in 16 years, and will never happen again since Mullens can only beat cellar dwellers.

Ahhh, once again, why I like having our own network. We can watch our mediocre football all to ourselves.

Mullen has done an incredible job, in the most difficult division there is. He's essentially turned them into a top 30 program, which is incredible because their history suggests they aren't even a top 75 program.

Yall don't play the OU games from the past 2 years on repeat?

Mullens is under .500 against teams with a .500 record or better... pretty sure it was at about 35-45%.

ah yes, Miss St and their annoying-ass cowbells

Top 30 is a very big stretch. He's had some decent success, but don't get ahead of yourself.

0-7 vs. Bama
3-4 vs Auburn
1-6 vs. LSU
1-3 vs. A&M
4-3 vs. Ole Miss
4-3 vs. Arkansas

That's 14-26 vs. the current SECW.

OOC, he hasn't done shit. His "best" OOC win was over 7-6 michigan.

Then if you pay attention to how many wins are against sub .500 teams those wins are even less impressive.

Exactly. They're not a top 30 team just because of a couple of decent years. With Dak gone, I definitely see them dropping off this year.

And my guess is that would be significantly better than what they are throughout their program's history.

Dak is one of their programs best players ever and hes slightly above average at best. Only thing making them relevant last year. Mullens is one of the most overinflated coaches in the country.

While I think he is overrated, it is Mississippi State. They have never had this much success for this long (which I think at best they will get 7 wins this year). All those schools get better recruiting in the SEC. Mississippi St doesn't have much in Mississippi bc Ole Miss gets most of the recruits and that makes it even harder to recruit out of state even for a guy like Mullen. While I think he is overrated as a coach in general he has still done a pretty damn good job at Miss St.

When LSU takes over the SEC network, do they show any video of them crossing the 50?

Not really. They are tied for 29th in win % the last 4 years. And that's with having on average the 18th hardest strength of schedule over those 4 years.

Quite a few times, kind of like that title game in '03. The team LSU played is eluding me though.
