Mississippi State Bulldogs

Mississippi State (2-1) and South Carolina (1-2) both head into Week 4 looking for their first SEC win of the season after falling in their respective conference openers.

The Bulldogs look to bounce back from a 41-14 loss to the LSU Tigers, while the Gamecocks will aim to build upon some of the intrigue they showed in a 24-14 fall to the Georgia Bulldogs -- the best team in college football that looks to be building a dynasty.

Kickoff between MSU and South Carolina is set for 6:30 p.m. CT in Williams-Brice Stadium. Follow along here for the latest updates on the biggest plays of note, scoring plays and more.
