Mississippi State Bulldogs School History
Seasons: 113 (1902 to 2017)
Record (W-L-T): 558-539-37
Adjusted Record (W-L-T): 541-557-36


In the 1970's the NCAA forced State to forfeit 3 seasons of wins for one player receiving a $12 discount on clothes (discount was available to all students). Hence the 'adjusted record'.

Which led to Kentucky retroactively winning the SEC in 1976 and probably why the NCAA stopped forfeiting.
