There are many in the college football world who believe the Mississippi State Bulldogs are in for a big season.

More from College Football

With quarterback Dak Prescott back to lead a talented roster, they may be right.

The Bulldogs opened with an easy win of the Southern Miss Golden Eagles but that wasn’t much a test. Most expected that their second opponent, the UAB Blazers, wouldn’t present much of a challenge either.

Thus far, that has not been the case.

Trailing 7-3, the Blazers picked off a Prescott pass, they took over deep in their own territory. Cody Clements dropped back to pass, but he was hit and his pass was intercepted by defensive end Preston Smith, who returned it for the touchdown.

You can see the play below.
