On Saturday though, it was the Bulldogs making the big comeback, as they overcame a a 14-point deficit early in the fourth quarter to pull out the 38-35 victory for their first SEC win of the season.
Not only was it the first SEC win of the season for the Bulldogs, it was the first for Lebby during his time as the Mississippi State coach. He was 0-12 before that.
Quarterback Blake Shapen threw for 242 yards and two touchdowns, including an 18-yard pass to Anthony Evans III with 48 seconds remaining in the game to get the win. Evans was the go to receiver all night, as he finished with five catches for 111 yards and two touchdowns.

— Mississippi State Football (@HailStateFB) November 1, 2025With the win, the Bulldogs moved to 5-4 on the year, and are in position to make a bowl game. That would be a major improvement after finishing 2-10 in his first year last season.
The schedule isn’t easy though, as Mississippi State hosts the Georgia Bulldogs next week, with the final two games being at Missouri and against Ole Miss. Regardless, all that matters on Saturday night is the Bulldogs got that elusive victory for Lebby.
