14 SEC teams in 2012 and a burning question for each.  Today brings #12 of 14.

Can Mississippi State win a game after October 20th?

Dan Mullen enters his fourth year at State with a 21-17 mark.  Last year’s bunch squeaked out a 7-6 record following a Music City Bowl win over Wake Forest, but, overall, the season was a bit of a disappointment after the ’10 squad notched a 9-4 record.  The Bullies were supposedly supposed to knock the door in in 2011, but wound up taking a step back to being very average.

The truth is that 2010 included some serious aberrations that led to the nine win season.  The Dogs beat an under-performing Georgia team and also kicked Urban Meyer’s can, 10-7, in his train wreck last season at Florida.  Take away those two wins, as normally would be the case versus Georgia and Florida, and State would have been 7-6.

This year’s team has a chance to be very good – if they were playing in Conference USA or the Big East.  But they’re not.  They’re still in the SEC West and beginning on October 27th, they’ll play, in succession Alabama, Texas A&M, LSU, Arkansas and then in-state rival Ole Miss.  That’s a heckuva five game stretch for the Dogs, so they better hope they get business done before October 27th if they want to go bowling. ..........

One of those is probably a win.  The Dogs might win a second one if they get really lucky against the Aggies.

^^^ Isn't that when Coach Bryant returned to Tuscaloosa to coach UofA leaving College Station. If it is factually accurate I'm on to something!
