The FG is good and @HailStateFB extends their lead 💪 pic.twitter.com/V2G4CSOQHI — FOX College Football (@CFBONFOX) September 11, 2022 - DAWGS INCREASE THE LEAD! Ben Raybon drills a 39-yard field goal. Placed it perfectly through the uprights. Mississippi State now has a 15-7 lead with 40 seconds left in the first quarter. - Ground raid? With just under three minutes left in the first quarter, the Dawgs have 70 rushing yards. 40 for Jo'quavious Marks. 30 for Dillon Johnson. State still up 12-7. - Here's a clip of that Rogers to Ducking TD connection that has the Dawgs in front 12-7:

Will Rogers with a beauty of a throw to put @HailStateFB on top! pic.twitter.com/GPtpOAXEF3 — FOX College Football (@CFBONFOX) September 11, 2022 - AND MISSISSIPPI STATE CAPITALIZES! TOUCHDOWN BULLDOGS! Will Rogers with a perfect throw. Caleb Ducking with the catch in the end zone. Nine-yard play for the score! Massimo Biscardi again misses the PAT, but the Dawgs lead Arizona 12-7 with 5:29 left in the first quarter. Caleb Ducking, man. He continues to show why the Bulldogs believe he's ready to shine. - I'd love to be able to accurately put the last play into words, but I don't think it's possible! Bottom line, Jalen Green has a Bulldog interception on a wild series of events, and an Arizona penalty is tacked on putting the Dawgs deep into Wildcat territory! (UPDATE: I don't have to put it into words. We now have a clip! It's below.) This might be the most chaotic play of the day 😅 pic.twitter.com/88obmbKvon — FOX College Football (@CFBONFOX) September 11, 2022 - TOUCHDOWN Mississippi State!!! The Bulldogs answer right back. Jo'quavious Marks caps off a strong MSU drive with a nine-yard scoring run. Massimo Biscardi's extra point attempt is no good, but State now trails just 7-6 early in the first quarter. - Well, that didn't take long for Arizona. Wildcats drive down the field in just over two minutes for a touchdown. 75-yard drive on six plays. Just like that, the Bulldogs trail 7-0 early. - At long last, we are underway in Tucson. Updates to come! - Tick, tock. Tick, tock. Tick, tock. Kickoff time is getting closer. With that, a quick thought or two heading into the game. Since head coach Mike Leach took over at Mississippi State, he has perhaps uttered no word in the English language more than the word 'consistency'. If you're looking for a key to tonight's game, it might be just that - consistency. The Bulldogs were solid in virtually every phase of the game a week ago when they dominated Memphis. Quarterback Will Rogers was fantastic. The receivers (and running backs) didn't drop a pass. The running game was solid. The offensive line looked strong. The Bulldogs looked great defensively, save for a play or two. The question today is, can the Dawgs repeat it? Can they simply do it again? Can they be the consistently productive bunch Leach wants them to be? We've seen since Leach became head coach how dangerous MSU is when clicking on all cylinders. The Dawgs have shown over the last couple of years they're capable of it on any given Saturday. Today's a chance to prove they've matured to the point where clicking on all cylinders is the norm. Today's a chance to prove they're the consistent squad Leach has longed for. Get you another pot of coffee ready. It's nearly game time. - So you know that pic of head strength coach Tyson Brown in the previous post? You know, the one of him with the intensity in his eyes, firing up his guys? Curious what he was saying? Well you're in luck. Here's a bit of that:
