The Mississippi State Bulldogs have been dealing with some key injuries this year, and on Monday, coach Joe Moorhead gave an update on some key players.

Among those on the injury report this week are starting DB Brian Cole, RB Kylin Hill, WR Keith Mixon and DT Braxton Hoyett.

As you can see below, Moorhead officially ruled Cole — who hasn’t played the last two weeks — out for the year, and said the other three are day-to-day:

The loss of Cole will hurt the defense, but if Hill and Mixon can play this coming weekend, that will be a big boost for the offense.

The Bulldogs host Louisiana Tech this weekend, so Moorhead may decide to rest those players another week before they travel to Alabama on Nov. 10.
