WATCH: Dan Mullen addresses Mississippi State players after huge 45-7 win
The Mississippi State Bulldogs picked up a huge home victory on Saturday afternoon, blowing out the Kentucky Wildcats 45-7.
The Bulldogs controlled the pace of the game all day and dominated in every aspect of the game.
Understandably, coach Dan Mullen was thrilled with his team’s effort, and as you can see in the video below, had a great message for the Bulldogs in the postgame locker room:

The road doesn’t get easier for the Bulldogs, as they travel to Texas A&M next weekend and host No. 1 Alabama on Nov. 11.
However, if Mississippi State can continue playing like it did on Saturday against Kentucky, the Bulldogs should be competitive in those two tough contests.
It’s hard to think that the gap between LSU, UK and us can be so great. But I guess so.
I don’t think lsu would a be a blowout right now. Arden key is back in shape too (he looked gassed against us), but I think we would still beat them. Glad to see the energy level back up.
Ole Miss sucks.
I’m sure the Liberty Bowl will be fun hahaha
This site blows chunks. Are you folks not supposed to write about the games?
No one cares about your pathetic school. When will you inbreds get that through your heads?
Apparently you do. You keep commenting on articles about it.
Not at all haha just do it because State fans are literally a disgrace to the conference
How am I a disgrace to the conference? Please explain.
I doubt the Alabama game will be competitive. Bama is too strong of a team and we definitely won’t defeat Bama as long as Fitzgerald is QB, unless he suddenly gets way better at passing the ball because we’re not gonna run on Bama. Even then, it’s still most likely a loss but I think we can go into Texas and be competitive against A&M. We just need to score and score often and take the fight to them early because if we get behind like we did against UGA and AU, it’s gonna be a long day.
We can beat A&M unless our total and complete inability to play away from home strikes again this year.
I think the matchups with aTm favor us. I would say we could be ‘competive’ (read: lose with dignity more than likely) with Bama. Our line continues to get better, but bama has shut down the ground. An elite type running back might give us a chance, but I don’t see hill breaking out this season. Gonna be fun when he does. We don’t move the ball on the ground against bame, our offense will be shut down and it will get embarrassing.
