Dan Mullen has spearheaded Mississippi State to unprecedented sustained success and reenergized the Bulldog fan base in the pro-cess. The MSU faithful have gone on to watch the head coach lead the Maroon and White to four straight bowl games for the first time in now the 115th year of the program. Just six years into his tenure, Mullen (39-28, .582) owns the highest winning percentage as a coach at State since the late Darrell Royal in 1954-55 (.600), and he is third in school history for wins by a MSU head coach (39). Mullen became the MSU all-time leader in bowl game victories with three when the Bulldogs trounced Rice 44-7 in the 2013 AutoZone Liberty Bowl. On top of that, Mullen has dominated the Egg Bowl rivalry (4-1), owning the second-highest winning percentage (.800) against Ole Miss. Mullen (63 games) was the quickest Bulldog coach to 35 career wins since Allyn McKeen in 1942. He ranks third all-time in MSU winning percent-age among coaches who have coached more than four seasons. From the moment of his introduction on Dec. 10, 2008, as the 32nd head coach in school history, supporters have turned out in record numbers and capacity crowds to sup-port the Bulldogs. Mississippi State fans have sold out a school-record 31 consecutive home games at Davis Wade Stadium. Mullen was widely regarded as one of the top young minds in college football when he arrived at Mississippi State, and he brought not only an impressive offensive resume and a list of NFL-developed quarterbacks, but also an energy and passion for the college game. A total of 13 players have been selected in the NFL Draft during Mullen’s MSU tenure. Of those 13, seven were considered ‘three-stars’ by recruiting services in high school. All seven of those are still in the NFL. Under Mullen’s guidance, the 2013 MSU offense went down as one of the most prolific in school history. The Bulldogs shattered school records for total yards (5,647), yards per game (434.4), passing yards (3,178), first downs (305), completions (253), passing yards per game (244.5) and completion percent-

age (59.0). Mullen also helped develop Dak Prescott into one of the top signal callers in school history as Prescott broke the school record for rushing yards by a quarterback (829) and registered the third-highest total offense mark in school history (2,769). As a team, MSU showed constant improve-ment and went on an inspiring three-game winning streak to close the 2013 season despite a rash of injuries. After a hard-fought game against No. 1 Alabama on Nov. 16, the Bulldogs bounced back a week later with their first victory ever at Arkansas. Then on a cold Thanksgiving night, Mullen continued his dominance of the Egg Bowl rivalry as MSU, on a gutsy final drive engineered by an injured Prescott, claimed its fourth Egg Bowl win in five seasons with a 17-10 overtime triumph. The Bulldogs closed the year racking up a bowl school-record 533 yards to defeat Rice 44-7 in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl in Memphis, Tenn. The 37-point margin of vic-tory was the largest of the 2013 college bowl season as MSU finished the year with a 7-6 record. Off the field, Mullen’s players are constant achievers in the classroom and the community donating countless hours to the Starkville area and state of Mississippi. Eighteen Bulldogs were named to the SEC Winter Academic Honor Roll in 2013. During Mullen’s entire five-year tenure at MSU, 90 players have earned the distinction of SEC Academic Honor Roll recipient. The 42-year-old has helped the program improve its NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) every year in his tenure, including most recently the SEC’s fourth-best football APR with a score of 974. MSU is the only SEC foot-ball program to improve its NCAA APR score every year since the formula’s inception. The Mullen’s created the Mullen Family 36 Foundation, raising more than $250,000 for charity in the last two years. The founda-tion has impacted the lives of 36 different children’s charities throughout the state of Mississippi.

SERIES HISTORY

Oct. 5, 2013 • Davis Wade Stadium at Scott FieldStarkville, Miss. • 57,113


MSU, LSU TIES MSU co-offensive coordinator/wide receivers coach Billy Gonzales spent two seasons as the passing game coordinator/wide receivers coach at LSU under Les Miles from 2010-11 ... Gonzales was a member of the Tigers’ 2011 SEC Championship team and 2012 BCS Championship Game squad ... MSU running back Josh Robinson was high school teammates with LSU back Terrence Magee ... While Robinson was the starting RB, Magee was the starting QB for Class 4A Franklinton HS ... The two led the squad to a 14-1 record and its first ever state title in 2010.

LOUISIANA BULLDOGS Nine players on the MSU roster hail from Louisiana: LB Quadry Antoine (Belle Chasse), RB Josh Robinson (Franklinton), WR Shelby Christy (Geismar), LB Kelan Chairs (Harvey), QB Dak Prescott (Haughton), Torrey Dale (Kenner), QB Damian Williams (Metairie), DE Ryan Brown (New Orleans) and C Dillon Day (West Monroe). Robinson, Dale, Williams, Brown and Day all won football state championships during their high school careers.

70 YEARS IN THE MAKING MSU’s offense has combined for 131 points. That’s the most through the first three games of a season since 1944 (146). In 1944, the Bulldogs defeated: Jackson, 41-0; Millsaps College, 56-0 and Arkansas A&M, 49-20 to open the campaign. MSU has scored over 35 points in three straight games in the same season for the first time in the Dan Mullen era and the first time overall since 2000. Dating back to last season’s 44-7 Liberty Bowl win over Rice, the Bulldogs have scored over 35 points in four consecutive games.

TEAM OFFENSE ON RECORD PACE The Bulldogs have accumulated 1,580 yards of total offense through the first three games. MSU is averaging 526.7 yards per game, which is fourth in the SEC and 20th nationally. The Bulldogs have gone over 500 yards of total offense in each of the first three games, a first in school history. If you count last year’s Liberty Bowl, the mark is four straight games of 500-plus yards of total offense. MSU has thrown 11 touchdown passes, which is the most through the first three games of a season in school history. The school record for TD passes is 28 set in 2012. The top four highest single-season team passing touchdown and total offense marks in MSU history have all occured in the Dan Mullen era.

MSU OVERALL WIN STREAK NOW UP TO SIX The current six-game winning streak dating back to last season is MSU’s longest since winning nine in a row from Nov. 26, 2011 (Ole Miss) to Oct. 20, 2012 (Middle Tennessee). The Bulldogs’ last loss occured to No. 1 Alabama (20-3) on Nov. 16. MSU has started a season 3-0 for the first time since 2012 and just the second time since 2000. It’s also only the second time since 1992 that the Bulldogs go into an SEC opener 3-0. The other year was 1999, which was the last time MSU beat LSU. The other time? 1991. That was also the last year the Bulldogs beat LSU in Baton Rouge.Noting the Win Streak: • The Bulldogs are outscoring opponents 216-71. • MSU defense has limited opponents to a touchdown or less in four out of the last five contests. • MSU has racked up 2,897 yards of total offense during the streak (482.8 average). • MSU has forced at least one turnover in all six games and forced a combined 14 turnovers (eight fumbles, eight interceptions).

PRESTON SMITH MAKES SEC HISTORY Senior Preston Smith became the first player in SEC history to be named SEC Defensive Lineman of the Week for three-straight weeks, league officials announced Monday. Smith picked up the nod again after tying a career high with two sacks in State’s 35-3 victory at South Alabama. The defensive end also blocked a field goal and forced a fumble. On the season, Smith has recorded nine tackles, 3.0 tackles for loss, three quarterback hurries, two sacks, two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown) and a forced fumble. The 6-foot-6, 270-pound lineman is tied for the FBS lead with two blocked kicks, which is more than 113 of the 125 FBS programs this season. He had an impressive debut as he registered two tackles, one interception, one blocked field goal, one pass breakup and a quarterback hurry against Southern Miss. Smith picked off his first career pass early in the first quarter, before blocking his first career field goal in the third. Then in Week 2, Smith made a second interception and returned it 21 yards for his first career touchdown.

TRIFECTA: DAK CAN THROW, RUN AND CATCH? For the third time in his career, Dak Prescott caught a touchdown pass from WR Jameon Lewis as the two connected 24-yard touchdown with 4:27 remaining in the second quarter of the South Alabama game on Sept. 13. Prescott lateraled to Lewis, who fired back to Prescott on the near side of the field. • All three of Prescott’s three career receiving TDs have come from Lewis passes. • It was also the second time in Prescott’s career that he has run, thrown and caught a touchdown pass in the same game. He did it against Troy last season on Sept. 21. He caught a 17-yard TD pass from Lewis in last year’s Kentucky game on Oct. 24 as well but did not run for a score in that contest. • Prescott is the only quarterback in FBS this season to rush, pass and receive a TD in a single game this season. Only two other QBs have passed and caught a TD in a single game this year:Trevor Siemian of Northwestern vs. Cal on Aug. 30 and Grant Hendrick of Boise State on Sept. 13 at Connecticut.

BULLDOG TRENDS


MULLEN THIRD IN MSU ALL-TIME WINS, ONE FROM 40 Dan Mullen has spearheaded Mississippi State to unprecedented success in now his sixth year. With the victory over UAB, he moved into sole possession of third place in MSU all-time victo-ries. With a 39-28 (.582) record, the 42-year-old is one victory away from No. 40. Mullen is seek-ing to become the just the third coach in school history to win 40 games and the quickest to do it since Alllyn McKeen in 1944. McKeen won his 40th game on Nov. 11, 1944 at Auburn (in his 47th game). McKeen and Mullen are the only two coaches in school history to post 39 wins and own a winning percentage over .500. Mullen has led MSU to four consecutive bowl games for the first time in school history while recording a school-record three bowl wins. Top 10 Winningest MSU Coaches (in terms of victories)

MSU NO. 2 NATIONALLY IN BLOCKED KICKS MSU has blocked three kicks this season, which leads the SEC and ranks No. 2 nationally behind Rutgers’ four. That is the most in a single season in the Dan Mullen era. Preston Smith is tied for the national lead in blocked kicks with Rutgers’ Kemoko Turay. Both have two to date. Smith is one of two Bulldogs under Mullen to block multiple kicks in the same season. All-American Fletcher Cox was the other in 2011.

DAK NO. 2 NATIONALLY IN POINTS RESPONSIBLE Through three games, Dak Prescott has tossed nine touchdown passes and scored three touch-downs (two rushing, one receiving). He’s been responsible for 72 points, which is No. 2 nationally behind Missouri’s Maty Mauk for the lead. Prescott is over 1/3 of the way to the single-season school record for TD passes set by Tyler Russell with 28 in 2012. Prescott is fourth in the SEC in total offense with 323.0 yards per game. For his career, Prescott is tied for ninth in MSU TD passes with 23.

DAK ATTACK MAKES HISTORY On Sept. 6 against UAB, Dak Prescott became the first quarterback in MSU history to throw at least four touchdown passes and rush for 100-plus yards in the same game. Prescott is one of only three SEC quarterbacks to achieve the feat since 1996. Johnny Manziel (Texas A&M) did it against SMU in 2012 and Jay Cutler (Vanderbilt) did it versus Kentucky in 2003. Prescott tossed four TDs, rushed for another and tallied 111 yards on 18 carries against UAB in Week 2. His five scores accounted for was a career-high and one shy of the school record.

RETURN OF THE DAK Dak Prescott is 7-3 as a starter a quarterback. Prescott is now tied for sixth in career 200-yard-plus passing games with eight. Prescott is a candidate for nearly every national award this season, including the Maxwell and Davey O’Brien. Prescott has been responsible for 42 touchdowns in his career, which is tied for fourth place in school history (23 rush, 19 pass). He is one of just four returning signal callers nationally who rushed for 800 yards and threw for over 1,900 yards a season ago, joining BYU’s Taysom Hill, Auburn’s Nick Marshall and Ohio State’s Braxton Miller.

“BOWLING BALL” JOSH ROBINSON Junior running back Josh Robinson, nicknamed “Bowling Ball,” returns to the state of Louisiana this weekend. Robinson is one of only seven FBS players with 250+ rushing yards & 90+ receiving yards this season. Others: Ameer Abdullah (Neb), Javorius Allen (USC), Jay Ajayi (Boise St.), DJ Foster (Arizona St.), Leon Allen (WKU) & Paul James (Rutgers)

BMAC THE LEADER OF THE ‘PSYCHO’ DEFENSE Defensive coordinator Geoff Collins preaches mayhem to his unit and few epitomize that more than junior linebacker Benardrick McKinney. McKinney, a candidate for the Bednarik, Nagurski, Butkus and Lombardi Awards, is MSU’s leading tackler with 20 and a team-best 5.0 tackles for loss. For the sixth time in his career, McKinney registered double-digit tackles as he recorded a team-high 12 and a career-best 3.5 tackles for loss against UAB in Week 2. The 12 tackles were the most by McKinney since tallying a career-best 14 versus Texas A&M on Nov. 3, 2012. McKinney’s 3.5 tackles for loss against UAB were the most by an MSU player since current NFL player Fletcher Cox had 3.5 at Kentucky on Oct. 29, 2011.

JAY HUGHES’ TRIUMPHANT RETURNOn Aug. 31, 2013, senior Jay Hughes earned a start at safety in the season-opener against Oklahoma State. His season lasted less than a quarter as he suffered a torn Achilles. On August 30 against Southern Miss with his father and his coach Tony Hughes on the sidelines, Hughes made his triumphant return to the field and did not disappoint. Hughes picked off his first career pass in the final minute of the second quarter in the endzone, preventing a USM score. Then midway through the third quarter, Hughes accounted for his first career points, scooping up a blocked field goal by Preston Smith and racing 68 yards for a touchdown to put the Bulldogs ahead 42-0. Hughes’ blocked punt return score was the only one recorded by an NCAA FBS team in week one. It was the first touchdown scored by MSU on a blocked field goal since at least 1960 (box scores go back that far).

FIRST-TIME BULLDOGSWideout Fred Brown made his first career start in the season-opener. A total of 13 MSU players saw their first career action in the season-opener vs. Southern Miss: Westin Graves (K), Jahmere Irvin-Sills (DB), Gabe Myles (WR), Dezmond Harris (LB), Darrion Hutcherson (TE), Boderick Oliver (ATH), Brandon Wells (ATH), Bennie Braswell III (RB), Kelan Chairs (LB), Hunter Bradley (SN), Kent Flowers (OL), Jake Thomas (OL) and Rashun Dixon (Special Teams). Graves and Dixon, the oldest player on the team at age 24, were the only true freshmen to see action in the opener. Dixon, the brother of MSU great and current Buffalo Bill Boobie Dixon, spent the last six years from 2008-13 playing professional baseball in the Oakland Athletics system. He was selected in the 10th round of the 2008 MLB Draft. Against UAB in Week 2, two more players made their collegiate debuts - freshman WR Jamoral Graham and sophomore tight end Gus Walley. Graham returned punts and Walley caught his first career TD pass in his first game, a 20-yarder in the second quarter from Dak Prescott.

CHRIS JONES A PRESEASON ALL-AMERICANChris Jones arrived at MSU as a five-star high school recruit and he lived up to the billing in his debut season of 2013. Jones has collected at least one sack in back-to-back games and he has six for his career. Jones has tallied 38 career tackles, including nine tackles for loss. Jones has been named a preseason All-American by ESPN.com, Athlon Sports, CBSSports.com and SI.com. Jones shows his versatility by playing both the end and tackle positions. The sophomore started three games last season -- two at tackle (Alcorn State, Troy) and one at end (Bowling Green).

JAMEON LEWIS, THE SEC’S LEADING RETURNING WR Senior Jameon Lewis enters his final season as the SEC’s leading returning receiver in yards after racking up 923 on 64 catches in 2013. Lewis averaged 71.0 yards per game and caught five touchdown passes last season. He has accounted for 15 touchdowns in his career (six receiving, four rushing, one kick return, four passing). Lewis, a candidate for the Biletnikoff Award, is the only player on the roster who has a rushing, receiving, passing and kick return touchdown to his credit. Lewis ranks fourth in MSU career annals with 1,414 yards on kick returns and he is now tied for 10th in career receptions (91) following the team-high six he made at South Alabama. MSU returns seven of its top eight receivers led by Lewis, senior Robert Johnson (34 catches for 389 yards in ‘13) and sophomore De’Runnya Wilson (26 catches for 351 yards in ‘13). Highest Pct. of Receptions Returning (min. 75 pct.)1. Maryland – 93.5 (215/230)2. FIU – 92.2 (141/153)3. UTSA – 91.1 (236/259)4. Auburn – 90.2 (156/173)5. Northern Illinois – 89.7 (234/261)6.

NEW STARTER AT LEFT GUARD For the first time since the beginning of the 2010 season, MSU had a new starter at left guard when Ben Beckwith got the start against Southern Miss on Aug. 30. Beckwith replaced Gabe Jackson, who just secured a starting spot on the Oakland Raiders in his rookie campaign. Jackson started all 52 games of his career at left guard from 2010-13.

MISSISSIPPI STATE OF MIND Of the 105 players who make up Mississippi State’s roster, 63 of them hail from the state of Mississippi (60 percent of the roster). Only Texas A&M (93) boasts more in-state players on its roster among SEC West teams. LSU was third at 62 and Ole Miss was fourth at 44.

2014 TEAM CAPTAINS C Dillon Day, S Jay Hughes and TE Malcolm Johnson were voted team captains for 2014 by their teammates. Each player on the 105 roster was able to vote for a senior who reflects leadership and accountability both on and off the field.

GRADUATES Six players on the 2014 MSU roster have already received their undergraduate degree: OL Blaine Clausell (criminology), TE Malcolm Johnson, DL John Harris (interdisciplinary studies), TE/LB Christian Holmes (interdisciplinary studie), S Jay Hughes (history) and Curtis Virges (chemistry).


COACHING CHANGES Brian Johnson, the winningest quarterback in Utah history and former co-off ensive coordinator for the Utes, was named quarterbacks coach at MSU in early February. Johnson, 27, came to Starkville aft er spending the past four seasons as an assistant coach at Utah, including one season as the off ensive coordinator and one season as the co-off ensive coordina-tor. He was recruited by then quarterbacks coach Dan Mullen at Utah as a high school signal caller growing up in Texas. Billy Gonzales and John Hevesy were promoted to co-off ensive coordinators. Greg Knox serves as special teams coordinator in addition to running backs coach. Mullen continues to call plays on gameday. MSU has maintained a stable coach-ing staff since Mullen’s arrival in 2009. Since that time, the Bulldogs have only had nine assistant coaching turnovers, representing the third-fewest mark in the SEC. Missouri leads the way with two in that time frame.

100 YEARS OF SCOTT FIELD The 2014 season is a special one in Starkville as MSU celebrates the 100-year anniversary of Scott Field. The home of the Bulldogs since 1914, MSU has produced a 239-133-13 (.636) record all-time in Davis Wade Stadium at Scott Field. The first game at Scott Field was a 54-0 MSU victory over Marion (Ala.) Military Insitute on Oct. 3, 1914. Flash forward to present day and Scott Field has expanded to a capacity of 61,337, which makes its the largest stadium in the state of Mississippi. A $75 million renovation and expansion was just completed in the north end zone, adding 8,815 of new seats, including premium areas.

HONORING A LEGEND, JACK CRISTIL Jacob Sanford “Jack” Cristil, the beloved former sports broadcaster of six decades of Mississippi State athletics, died Sunday, Sept. 7 at the age of 88 at Sanctuary Hospice House in Tupelo of complications from kidney disease and cancer after an extended illness. Cristil, who served MSU from 1953 to 2011, was known throughout the South as “the Voice of the Bulldogs.” During his legendary career as the voice of the Bulldogs, Cristil called 636 football games since 1953, or roughly 60 percent of every football game played in the history of the institution. Beginning with the South Alabama game and for the remainder of the season, the Bulldogs will wear a special decal on the back of their helmets honoring Cristil.

MSU Shuts Out Southern Miss, 49-0, in Season-OpenerDak Prescott fi red a career-best four touchdowns and 286 yards as Mississip-pi State pitched its fi rst shutout since 1999 in a 49-0 win over Southern Miss in the season-opener at Davis Wade Stadium. Prescott twice connected with De’Runnya Wilson for scores, including a 25-yard strike on the Bulldogs’ fi rst drive. Prescott also found Fred Ross twice for touchdowns highlighted by a 35-yarder that put MSU up 21-0 with 4:15 left in the fi rst half. Th e Bulldogs led 28-0 at the half and immediately increased the lead to 35-0 on Wilson’s second TD catch with 10:52 left in the third quarter. Preston Smith, who picked off his fi rst career pass in the fi rst half, then preserved the shutout as the senior blocked a 30-yard fi eld goal attempt late in the third quarter. Th e block was scooped up by Jay Hughes, who raced 68 yards for a touchdown to put MSU up 42-0. Ross caught his second TD pass from backup quarterback Damian Williams on the game’s fi nal score. Th e Bulldogs held USM to 2.2 yards per carry. Kend-rick Market and Christian Holmes led MSU in tackles with six apiece. Chris Jones, Nelson Adams and Quadry Antoine each registered a sack. Hughes, playing his fi rst game since the 2013 opener aft er suff ering an injury, also picked off his fi rst career pass in the fi rst half. It was the fi rst meeting between the two in-state teams since 1990. It was also the fi rst Saturday primetime game in SEC Network history.
