re: Dan Mullen's quote to reporters about his first Egg Bowl

Mullen almost had to say some things like that. His job is to fire up the bulldogs, whether that be by making "Kiffin-esqe" style comments about the school up north or whatever. Let's face it, Mississippi State is probably the second worst job in the SEC behind Vanderbilt. Outside of Sly Croom's one year of success, when was the last time they were bowl eligible? I will credit Mullen and Company because they have improved since last year. We will see how they do long term though.
