FAYETTEVILLE -- Mississippi State football has a drastic case of good dog, bad dog under first-year Coach Joe Moorhead.
The Bulldogs (6-4 overall, 2-4 SEC), who host the University of Arkansas (2-8, 0-6) on Saturday at 11 a.m., have been very, very good when they've gotten ahead of teams.
Nov. 22 at Ole Miss* 6:30 p.m.
They average 41 points and 516 yards per game behind quarterback Nick Fitzgerald in their six victories. The Bulldogs routed overmatched Stephen F. Austin (63-6), Louisiana-Lafayette (56-10) and Louisiana Tech (45-3), and won handily at Kansas State (31-10) in Week 2 in their marquee nonconference game.
