The first game of the 2018 Mississippi State football season went incredibly well. The Bulldogs beat the Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks, a team from the Football Championship Subdivision, by 57 points.
That’s pretty good.
The first game of the 2018 Kansas State football season did not go so well. The Wildcats struggled against the South Dakota Coyotes, another team from the Football Championship Subdivision, and only won by a total of 3 points late in the game.
That’s not so good.
It wouldn’t be much of a surprise for a fan (or writer or blogger or journalist or whomever) to say that they didn’t think that the Kansas State football team wasn’t all that prepared in their first game.
