Mississippi State vs Texas TV Channel Time Schedule Live Stream SEC Football

Mississippi State hosts No. 18 Texas on Saturday in what could be a season-defining SEC matchup at Davis Wade Stadium.

The Longhorns (5-2, 2-1 SEC) are coming off a concerning 16-13 overtime win over Kentucky that raised serious questions about their offensive capabilities. Texas managed just 179 total yards in that victory — their lowest output in nearly a decade.

That’s fewer yards than the Longhorns produced in their 36-3 loss to Notre Dame back in 2015.

Kentucky controlled possession for nearly twice as long as Texas, leaving the Longhorn defense exhausted by the fourth quarter. That time-of-possession battle could become even more critical this week against Mississippi State (4-3, 0-3 SEC).

The Bulldogs built their identity around grinding down opponents with a clock-eating ground game. If Texas can’t establish offensive rhythm early, this game could turn into the type of SEC slugfest that favors the home team.

Michael Taaffe, the All-American safety, expressed optimism after the Kentucky game despite the offensive struggles.
