NCAA Football: Charleston Southern at Mississippi State Matt Bush-USA TODAY Sports

Mississippi State will face their first challenge of the season with their first road game of the season.

Louisiana Tech does have a history of playing MSU close. They took State to OT in 2011 and defeated MSU in their last trip to Ruston. But MSU did take care of Tech in their last meeting in Starkville 45-20.

Mississippi State will take on Louisiana Tech Saturday at 6:30 on CBS Sports Network. Make your plans now if you do not receive that channel.
