Call it déjà vu. Call it a blowout. Call it anything you want. But whatever you say about then-unranked Mississippi State dominating then-No. 11 LSU in Starkville on Saturday night, don’t call it an upset. At least not to the Bulldogs’ faces.
“Honestly, anyone inside that football facility this entire week, they would have never told you it would be called an upset,” star junior quarterback Nick Fitzgerald said after the 37-7 win in Davis Wade Stadium. “We knew that we were going to be able to come out there and play with them. We knew we would win if we played our game.
