What To Know And How To Watch: Mississippi State vs. Western Michigan

What to know and how to tune in as Mississippi State faces Western Michigan on Saturday.

Mississippi State (2-3) aims to snap an abysmal three-game losing streak as the Bulldogs remain winless in SEC play on Saturday, taking on a non-conference opponent for the first time since Week 2.

MSU will play the visiting Western Michigan Broncos (2-3) up next on the schedule in what is largely expected to be a game in which the Bulldogs can get their feet back under them and make some necessary tweaks. At the same time, it should be noted that one of the most important rules in football is to never play down to a team deemed to be the "lesser" opponent.

The Bulldogs come off of a 40-17 home loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide after falling to both LSU and South Carolina, while the Broncos won their latest matchup over the Ball State Cardinals, 42-24.
