The best blocking Mississippi State fans have seen so far on Saturday came from the Davis-Wade Stadium security staff.

While the Bulldogs are struggling on the field in the first half against Texas A&M, the security officials working the game are doing an outstanding job getting things moving on the field.

During the first half of the game, two PETA protestors ran out on Scott Field and were taken out and dragged off the field by the officers on hand.

Here is a photo of one of the hits:
