Kentucky has quite the challenger coming onto their turf Saturday in the #14-ranked Mississippi St. Bulldogs.
Kentucky and Mississippi State began their yearly SEC East versus West matchup back in 1990. Since then, the Bulldogs hold a 16-8 edge.
Since 2009, Dan Mullen has been the head man for the Bulldogs. He went 8-1 while at Mississippi State against the Cats, including a 5-1 record against Mark Stoops.
For the first time in the rivalry’s history, it will be Joe Moorhead leading the Bulldogs out of the tunnel.
Moorhead was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for Penn State the two seasons before moving down to Starkville.
