Yep, Media Days began July 16. So from the day I drove to Hoover, to return from Jacksonville, our season lasted two weeks shy of six full months. Not that y’all care about my calendar count as much as another ‘shy of’ scenario. How did Mississippi State measure up for 2012? What did its ending signal for 2013, or the longer-term future? http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1254785.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1254785.html Fri, 04 Jan 2013 18:12:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate JACKSONVILLE – Arceto Clark was Mississippi State’s leading receiver as a junior and four of his grabs went for touchdowns. But he went his entire senior regular season without finding the end zone. Bowl season was another matter. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1253975.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1253975.html Wed, 02 Jan 2013 01:08:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate JACKSONVILLE -- Somebody’s bowl streak had to end in Jacksonville. Either Mississippi State would extend its run of post-season success to a national-best six games…or Northwestern would snap four years of frustration with a bowl victory. It was the Wildcats who walked off EverBank Field happy after 34-20 Gator Bowl victory. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1253942.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1253942.html Tue, 01 Jan 2013 23:42:00 GMT 0 136 Mississippi State mississippistate FSNextTV: Mississippi State junior running back LaDarius Perkins talks about earning post-season honors as well as the upcoming Gator Bowl game. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1247481.html 2047 Gene Swindoll http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1247481.html Sat, 08 Dec 2012 06:10:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate Starkville, Miss. - Six Mississippi State football players were named All-Southeastern Conference by the AP and league coaches, announced by the conference this past week. The half-dozen combined selections for the Maroon and White are the most since placing nine on the 2000 All-SEC squad. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1247248.html 2047 MSU Athletics http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1247248.html Fri, 07 Dec 2012 02:16:00 GMT 0 136 Mississippi State mississippistate FSNextTV: Mississippi State junior running back LaDarius Perkins talks about MSU's upcoming game against Ole Miss. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1241776.html 2047 Gene Swindoll http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1241776.html Wed, 21 Nov 2012 14:00:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate Among all the easy and obvious story lines from Saturday’s victory, the outcome may well have swung on consecutive third-quarter series where both Mississippi State and Arkansas faced fourth downs. The Bulldogs converted and ultimately won. The Razorbacks could not, and did not. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1241116.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1241116.html Sun, 18 Nov 2012 03:11:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate How does that network saying go…“We now return to our regular scheduling”? Sounds like fine advice to me this fine afternoon as Mississippi State can turn all attention to two teams, and games, which will ultimately define the 2012 season. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1238792.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1238792.html Sun, 11 Nov 2012 20:43:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate BATON ROUGE -- “A tough loss. The kids played hard out there for us tonight. That’s not good enough, we’re here to win football games. For us there are little errors you can see along the way, mistakes we made that we have to get corrected to continue to move forward and put ourselves in a position to win these type of games.” http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1238614.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1238614.html Sun, 11 Nov 2012 05:10:00 GMT 0 136 Mississippi State mississippistate They don’t actually ‘vote’ on such things. Make no mistake though: Bulldog players absolutely have a say in each week’s offensive gameplan. “And when you present a plan to kids they’ll let you know if they like it or they don’t like it, by practice,” Coach Les Koenning said. “When you see the repetition, if it doesn’t look very good then obviously you’re not going to use that.” http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1237107.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1237107.html Tue, 06 Nov 2012 17:14:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate He doesn’t have quite the same reputation for fancy footwork as does his weekend counterpart. Still Tyler Russell insists, he is no statue stuck in the passing pocket either. “I know I’m capable of making plays with my legs when I need to, get two or three yards. But I’m more deadly with my arm.” http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1235327.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1235327.html Wed, 31 Oct 2012 17:49:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate Where Mississippi State could be ranked now is of purely conversational interest. The Bulldogs have no doubts where the team which spoiled their so-far perfect record should be listed. “They’re number-one for a reason,” said Johnthan Banks after a 38-7 whipping at Alabama. “I haven’t played a team like them since I’ve been in college.” http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1234298.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1234298.html Sun, 28 Oct 2012 09:02:00 GMT 0 136 Mississippi State mississippistate FSNext-TV: Mississippi State running back LaDarius Perkins talks about his team's upcoming game against Alabama. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1232872.html 2047 Gene Swindoll http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1232872.html Thu, 25 Oct 2012 13:10:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate One produces over a hundred yards worth of rushing each week. The other doesn’t allow opponents to even reach triple digits at all. One is knocking off 5.8 yards each time he’s handed the football; the other limits such attempts to less than six feet. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1232624.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1232624.html Tue, 23 Oct 2012 07:00:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate There were plenty of good choices for Best Bulldog Moment of the evening. Choosing the Worst was easier. It was when Johnthan Banks lay on Scott Field circled by training staff, with few either on sideline or in crowd daring breath. “Everybody’s heart kind of jumped into their throat right there,” Coach Dan Mullen said. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1232077.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1232077.html Sun, 21 Oct 2012 06:30:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate Yes, for a moment there the natural thought was oh no, not again. Mississippi State had just recovered a daring on-sides kickoff and was in excellent position to regain major first-half momentum. Then as everyone unpiled from a short first-down dive play at the Tennessee 32-yard line, a Bulldog stayed down. It was of course Tobias Smith. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1229846.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1229846.html Sun, 14 Oct 2012 09:01:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate The Game: #20-ranked Mississippi State (4-0, 1-0 SEC) resumes the schedule with a road trip to Kentucky (1-4, 0-2 SEC). Kickoff from Commonwealth Stadium is 12:21et for SEC Network telecast. The UK radio broadcast is on XM201/Sirius94. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1227700.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1227700.html Fri, 05 Oct 2012 00:51:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate Either Tyler Russell is really focused on his business, or he really wanted to take advantage of the bye-weekend. Either way, the deer of Lauderdale County had little chance to cross paths with this Bulldog. “I only saw a few,” reported Russell. “I only went out once.” http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1227652.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1227652.html Thu, 04 Oct 2012 18:56:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate He already had confidence in both himself and squad. Still it always helps to see the same faith from the boss. Or that’s what Tyler Russell recognized Saturday night when Coach Dan Mullen essentially staked their game on a fourth down, four yards, and fourth quarter call at Troy. http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1222554.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1222554.html Mon, 17 Sep 2012 22:35:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate RECEIVER CHAD BUMPHIS: What made your third touchdown work? “He (the cornerback) played it different that time, he went under so he gave me the top. So I took it over the top. It was a corner route and see how he rolled out.” http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1221938.html 2047 David Murray http://mississippistate.scout.com/2/1221938.html Sun, 16 Sep 2012 03:47:00 GMT 1 136 Mississippi State mississippistate
