4-0 and the fanbase is already negotiating with its cardiologist about whether this is worth it.
What happened
Mississippi State beat Missouri 31-24 and moved to 4-0, which should have been cause for celebration and instead read like a cardiology referral. The turning point came late, when the Bulldogs had to hold a one-score lead rather than pad it, and Starkville spent those minutes negotiating with its own pulse. One fan admitted "I don't know how much more my heart can take." Another reported that "my doctor says Mississippi State Football is bad for me. I'm inclined to agree." Undefeated, unwell, unconvinced it lasts.
