Good afternoon, Stark Vegas! It’s CFP National Championship night and it’s the third edition of Alabama vs. Clemson. It should be a great battle between two young quarterbacks and I can’t wait to watch.
Before we hit some national headlines, let’s look at some State results.
WBB begins conference play 2-0
A 93-69 win over Arkansas and a 86-71 victory over No. 16 Kentucky leaves the Lady Bulldogs as one of four undefeated teams in SEC play. Anriel Howard had 21 points and 12 rebounds against the Wildcats, leading MSU to a 14-1 (2-0 SEC) record.

MBB rises to No. 14 in AP Poll
Head coach Ben Howland’s Bulldogs rose up three spots as they sit at 14-1 before they begin their SEC slate.
The tail of this week will bring a lot more events, so these articles will have a lot more Mississippi State-related stories. Now let’s get into the national headlines.
