As a life long Mississippi St. Bulldogs fan, I've always heard how irrelevant MSU is in football. How we have 0 national championships, 0 conference championships, an all-time record under .500, and many other stats that the fans are aware of. Most fans I've encountered have always used their history of national championships and all-time record to base their argument about why their team is better. In my opinion, the national championships earned before the start of the BCS era were a lot easier to obtain. That is why I've decided to see how Mississippi State has fared since the start of the BCS era and if they are getting the respect they deserve.
