Now that we know South Alabama is Mississippi State's daddy we know that MSU would be at least 4th. But could they be as low as 6th? Let's break down the evidence and see:
Football:
1-3 vs the state of Alabama in 2016. Lost to Auburn and Alabama by a combined 72 points, plus a loss to South Alabama
Their only win came against FCS Samford. Samford scored 41 points
-All-Time: .185 vs Bama, .300 vs AU
Has lost in Starkville to all of Troy, UAB, and South Alabama. Has also traveled to play road games at those 3 schools. And multiple 1 score games vs Troy and UAB.
Also has a loss vs Samford in 1909
Basketball:
0-4 vs Alabama and Auburn in 2016, with both programs having brighter futures
All-time has a lower winning percentage than UAB, South Alabama, Troy, and Alabama. Less Sweet 16s than Auburn and Bama, and same as UAB
Baseball:
Lost series in Starkville to Auburn
Lost in the NCAA tournament to South Alabama
In the 2012 NCAA Tournament MSU was eliminated after going 0-2 to Samford
My conclusion
Mississippi State would ranked 6th athletically overall in the State of Alabama, behind in no particular order Alabama, Auburn, South Alabama, Troy, and UAB.
State still comes in ahead of Samford, just edging out the other Bulldogs.
Objectively MSU is also ahead of Jacksonville State, although there's not much h2h evidence to compare.

Solid grind supported by facts.

I'm gonna have to salute you for this grind

You're persistence to reverse grind MSU is commendable, but unnecessary.
There's an old guy in my hometown that everybody knows as Peanut, he's special, and everybody's nice to him because they feel sorry for him. Picking on MSU is like picking on Peanut.

Auburn has fallen so hard that it has to troll State to feel better about their program

LSU must be at rock bottom then.
Lost to Auburn in football and only beat MSU by 3.
And y'all are 0-4 in basketball vs us

No, that just didn't fit my agenda
Plus Bama is so far ahead in football and they're preseason ranked in basketball so one little sweep in baseball wouldn't bridge that gap anyway

So it is true then that they have sex with animals in Starkville

Yeah Dogs get it on with dogs in Starkville.

It's a felony in Mississippi, which means it was probably a huge issue at some point
It is legal in Texas though, so the Aggies probably do
