To know where you are in the present, sometimes you have to look into your past.
For some, that can be a fun, healthy endeavor. For others, well, not so much.
Still, this week we're paying homage to the past and how it's affected the present in the SEC by taking a look at where each program was 10 years ago and where it currently stands. Some programs have made big leaps, some have steadied the course, and others, well, they're yearning for the days of old.
We continue the series now with Mississippi State:
2006 record: 3-9
2006 coach: Sylvester Croom
Notable: Mississippi State made history by making Croom the SEC's first black head coach, but his tenure lacked much on-field success.
