There was an ugly game played in Fayetteville, Arkansas, on Saturday.
It won’t be remembered fondly by Razorbacks faithful or Bulldog backers.
Mississippi State scored the only touchdown for a 7-3 victory over Arkansas.
This one set SEC football — actually, college football – back decades.
Quarterbacks Mike Wright or Mississippi State and KJ Jefferson combined go to 27-of-43 for 182 yards with two picks.
Woody Marks with the score!
That’s @JoquaviousMarks‘ first receiving touchdown of the season, 4th of his career #HailState🐶 | 📺 » https://t.co/Ak248kTWHi (ESPN) pic.twitter.com/GmQvmGHAjq

Mississippi State, which hadn’t held an FBS team to less than 24 points this year, limits Arkansas to a field goal in 7-3 win. 1st time Arkansas didn’t score TD since 37-0 loss to Georgia in 2021
