The Mississippi State Bulldogs got off to a quick start and then had to overcome some sluggish play to knock off the Missouri Tigers Thursday night. Here's how the folks on Twitter saw the game.
Doesn't appear there will be much of a home field advantage for Mizzou. https://t.co/OGeWh4reSk

Uniforms look awesome.

Mississippi State-Missouri is blessed with Joe Tessitore as the play-by-play broadcaster. Oh hell yes.
— Tyler Bouldin (@tylerbouldin) November 6, 2015
And we're off. That was the first start for true freshman safety Jamal Peters. I imagine it won't be the last of his career.

Nick James is my spirit animal...

Dak to Fred Ross for a TD.
— Ben Wait (@bcwait) November 6, 2015
Dak Prescott is now 3 yards away from having 10,000 in his career. He will be 10th player in SEC history to do so.

Gonna be really weird when Missouri somehow beats BYU 4-3.
— Matt Brown (@MattSBN) November 6, 2015
Pretty subdued and they had a firetruck spray the students in the pre-game. Now playing OutKast so there's hope. https://t.co/MryYnvm14m
— Steve Robertson (@ScoutSteveR) November 6, 2015
@HailStateFB FYI this QB named Dak is pretty good...

Hey guys I don't think Mizzou is very good

If I were at the Missouri game I would start a campfire and make s’mores in the grassy knoll by the big M made out of gravel.

Baylor's offense is DirecTV, Missouri's is cable.

First career interception for @GerriG_14
— Kyle Niblett (@KyleNiblett) November 6, 2015
Two first down runs, no yardage. State has to be pass first.
— Bulldog Sports Radio (@BulldogsRadio) November 6, 2015
Bold move of Dan Mullen to get away from everything that worked on offense the first drive. Let's see how it works for him

If 2014 Vanderbilt could play 2015 Missouri I'm fairly certain negative points would be scored.
— Hugh Kellenberger (@HKellenbergerCL) November 6, 2015
Richie Brown was obviously held. You can't just hug people like that Mizzou. It's not allowed.
— Ethan Lee (@leeethanj) November 6, 2015
We are suddenly calling plays like the line of scrimmage is an electric fence.
— Brandon Walker (@BWonStateBeat) November 6, 2015
I hate our running backs.
— Brandon Walker (@BWonStateBeat) November 6, 2015
WE'RE FROM THE HOSPITALITY STATE HERE WE'LL BE NICE AND PLAY AS BAD AS YOU
— cristilmethod (@cristilmethod) November 6, 2015
How does that sack not happen? Well done by Drew Lock to escape Chris Jones and Jamal Peters at the same time.
— Bob Carskadon (@bobcarskadon) November 6, 2015
The art of tackling is so lost in football! Wrap up please!

Mizzou's ROTC cannon is THE TRUTH, y'all.

Don't do a drink when Shumpert gets a carry for nothing game. You will die.

Everything that has to happen for this terrible team to beat us is happening.
— Brandon Walker (@BWonStateBeat) November 6, 2015
Field goal is good from 35. MSU 7, Missouri 6. The SEC Nation bus is currently leaving the stadium. Guess they don't like defense.
— Bob Carskadon (@bobcarskadon) November 6, 2015
Missouri’s next touchdown might come via canoe.
— Adam Kramer (@KegsnEggs) November 6, 2015
Brandon Holloway fumbles the ball for the second time tonight, but picks it up and returns it 79 yards.
— Michael Bonner (@MikeBBonner) November 6, 2015
De'Runnya make the trip?
— Brandon Walker (@BWonStateBeat) November 6, 2015
28 yards to De'Runnya TD
— Michael Bonner (@MikeBBonner) November 6, 2015
Dak and De’Runnya Wilson have connected for 16 TDs. One shy of the MSU record.

The drought ends in a rain storm. Missouri finds the end zone. It's 14-12 Mississippi State.
— Michael Bonner (@MikeBBonner) November 6, 2015
These folks ain't got no business moving the ball on us like that
— Johnthan Banks (@JBanks_27) November 6, 2015
Dak/De'Runnya just tied Chad Bumphis/Tyler Russell for most prolific QB/WR combo in @HailStateFB history (17 TDs)! pic.twitter.com/5ieMcfxSC7

If Mizzou fans think I'm going to take it easy on them after how holier than thou they've been the last two years, they're soooooooo wrong.
— Charlie Burris (@Charlie_Burris) November 6, 2015
Help your QB up
— Ben Beckwith (@Bbeckwith66) November 6, 2015
Westin Graves field goal is good from 36 yards out. MSU 24, Missouri 13. Graves is 9 of 10 on the year. 10:01 3Q.
— Bob Carskadon (@bobcarskadon) November 6, 2015
As @MikeWalker03 points out, this is officially the most points Missouri has given up all year. Still 9 minutes left in the 3rd quarter.
— Bob Carskadon (@bobcarskadon) November 6, 2015
Chris Jones finally got one. He's been unblockable this game just hasn't finished.
— Robbie Faulk (@robbiefaulk247) November 6, 2015
TOUCHDOWN! Dak Prescott gets his 100th career TD on a 8-yard pass to Fred Ross.
— Reflector Sports (@SportsReflector) November 6, 2015
This game has officially become the Dak Show
— Maria Taylor (@MariaTaylor7) November 6, 2015
Congrats @15_DakP, the sixth player in @SEC history to account for 100+ touchdowns! #HailState pic.twitter.com/wgmsY0iAQm
— MSU Football (@HailStateFB) November 6, 2015
This was a trap game, and State has escaped.
— Rick Cleveland (@rick_cleveland) November 6, 2015
We need to let Dak go for 7 TDs and break the school record tonight.
— Justin Sutton (@justinrsutton) November 6, 2015
Hey y’all. Remember when I said we should be happy we never have to play Dak Prescott again? https://t.co/gEF3E1W5GQ

Like Mississippi natives Blind Melon, we're best with No Rain

Dang, Taveze Calhoun slow to get up for the second game in a row. Doubt he has time to get two picks like against UK.
— Bulldog Sports Radio (@BulldogsRadio) November 6, 2015
Chris Jones has been an absolute monster tonight. Fangs, horns, spiked tail, the works.

The rarely seen double dipped punt down. Nice form.
— Bulldog Sports Radio (@BulldogsRadio) November 6, 2015
Hey that's not how you tackle
— Robbie Faulk (@robbiefaulk247) November 6, 2015
Mississippi State, with the most impressive punt coverage you'll see all weekend. (H/T @world_wide_wob) https://t.co/cglP3I7Ytm
