OSM(Tulane) 32, Mississippi State 29

Congratulations Tulane! You've just ended an eight game losing streak, beaten your first SEC team on the road since 1989, and passed the Shame Mask along to Mississippi State.

In Starkville, Tulane jumped out to a big lead (they were playing Mississippi State after all), but things were not all roses for the Green Wave. Up 14-0 in the second quarter, they allowed Mississippi State to score a touchdown before halftime. It was the Bulldogs first points of the season. Then in the third quarter, Tulane score three TDs, but unfortunately their kicker missed the PAT on each of them, and so their lead at the end of the third quarter was 32-7. Mississippi State then returned a fumble for a touchdown, which sparked a rally. Their offense score two more, but in the end, the rally fell short.

Winless Mississippi State travels to UAB next week.
