Hurt quarterbacks, inconsistent kickers, can't lose. Somehow Mississippi State managed to escape Little Rock with a win for the first time in program history yesterday, keeping the Bulldogs' hopes of going to a bowl game alive. The best tweets from the game are below. If we missed one, feel free to post it in the comments.
With high winds in Little Rock, kicking game may be an issue for MSU. (Tried to type that with a straight face)

Does Bielema in that jacket look like a cheese and sausage casing with a clump of Gouda at the top to anyone else?

Nice first drive for Damian Williams, even if it came up short. Upside: the return of the Relfian Battering Ram Offense.

And then we see a glimpse into why Derrick Milton hasn't carried the ball a lot this season, he fumbles, Ark takes over at the two.

Just when I thought he couldn't get any worse. Nicko totally redeemed himself!

Russell is down. Season may come down to the arm of Damian Williams and the foot of Devon Bell.

For the FIRST time in HISTORY, Mississippi State wins in the state of Arkansas. Let the Egg Bowl drama BEGIN! MSU is 1 win away from a bowl.

"The dream," HA! RT @BulldogsRadio That will do it, Taveze Calhoun finishes the Hogs off. 24-17 Bulldogs, and the dream is still alive.

I'll say the Arkansas "We'll coach an SEC team just like we coached a Big 10 team" 2013 experiment is pretty much a failure,

The Mississippi State fanbase stumbles out of the woods, looks to the northern horizon. *Swig from flask* "It's Egg Bowl Week."
