Jeff Lebby addresses difficult schedule for Mississippi State
Mississippi State has not won a game since they opened up the season with a 56-7 win over Eastern Kentucky. The Aggies have lost five straight games ahead of their matchup this weekend against No. 14 Texas A&M, the third straight ranked opponent on the Bulldogs’ schedule.
It won’t get much easier for Mississippi State this season in the SEC, as the Bulldogs are also slated to face three straight ranked teams to end the regular season. Hard times make strong men, though, according to first-year head coach Jeff Lebby. He addressed that when asked about his team’s challenging schedule.
“I think again, for us you learn exactly who you are and where you’re at every single step of the way,” Lebby said. “And so understanding that inside this league you get to do it against the best every single Saturday, and as a competitor man-to-man, that’s exactly what you want.”
