Right when it looked like Mississippi State's football season was about to collapse in a heap of disappointment, first-year head coach Joe Moorehead and senior quarterback Nick Fitzgerald waved a magic wand, and -- voila -- the Bulldogs all of sudden were awash with new life.
After going just 3-3 in its past six games, and after scoring only three points two weeks ago in a lopsided loss to LSU, Mississippi State was given up for dead.
Then last week against Texas A&M, the Bulldogs (5-3, 2/3 Southeastern Conference) worked their magic and handed the Aggies a good, old-fashioned 28-13 whuppin' that wasn't as close as the score made it seem.
