When you live outside the state nobody gives a crap about Mississippi state. Most other schools fans aren't afraid of msu sports. They talk good about msu baseball and mention Dak but that's about all they know. Most fans will say they don't mind msu because they don't see us as a legitimate threat to their standing. Go back 10 years ago in California they knew all about msu dak Dan Mullen. few years ago they knew leach but most of that in conversation was stuff he said at wazzu or Texas tech. Very few related leach to msu just because his tenure was short and Covid year at that in there.
