Mississippi State needs 2 of its final 3 to reach a bowl
Mississippi State's bowl math is down to this.
The Bulldogs (4-5, 2-5 SEC) have dropped 5 straight since a 4-0 start, finished by Saturday's 25-23 home loss to Vanderbilt. Quarterback Kamario Taylor is out for the season, and the boos Jeff Lebby heard on Saturday followed him into his Monday press conference. ("Let's coach better and play better" — Jeff Lebby, Mississippi State head coach.)
State needs 2 wins from its last 3: Auburn (5-4, 3-4 SEC) at Davis Wade Stadium on Saturday at 11 AM on ESPN2, Tennessee Tech on November 21, and the Egg Bowl at Ole Miss on Black Friday. Auburn's Byrum Brown is the first problem — the quarterback leads the Tigers with 606 rushing yards and 8 touchdowns.
Does State find those 2 wins?
