COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) As Mississippi State quarterback Dak Prescott prepares for Saturday's game at No. 14 Texas A&M, he's in a much better place than he was the last time he visited Kyle Field.
When Prescott played the Aggies on Nov. 9, 2013, it was just days after his mother died of cancer. Prescott missed practice that week and didn't start. He came in early and threw for 149 yards and two scores and ran for 154 yards. He and the Bulldogs were unable to overcome a five-touchdown performance by Johnny Manziel in the 51-41 win by the Aggies.
