The Mississippi State Bulldogs will host the Samford Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon. Here is how to watch this game online.
The Mississippi State Bulldogs will welcome the Samford Bulldogs to Starkville in Week 9. Kickoff from Davis Wade Stadium will be at 3:30 PM ET. The SEC Network will have the telecast and the available live stream will be hosted on WatchESPN.
Mississippi State has had a miserable 2016 season at 2-5 (1-3). Maybe the Bulldogs can beat Samford on Saturday on Homecoming in Starkville? Mississippi State can technically afford another loss here and still reach a bowl game. However, the Bulldogs still have four brutal SEC West games remaining, including the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Texas A&M Aggies.
Samford is playing very well at the FCS level in 2016. The Bulldogs are 6-1 (4-1) with their lone loss coming to the Chattanooga Mocs on the road. This will be Samford’s only game against an FBS opponent in 2016, so expect the Bulldogs to make this one count.
Date: Saturday, October 29th
Time: 3:30 PM ET
Location: Starkville, Mississippi
Venue: Davis Wade Stadium at Scott Field
TV Info: SEC Network
Live Stream: WatchESPN

There isn’t an available point spread for this game, as Mississippi State and Samford compete at different levels of collegiate football. With the way that Mississippi State has been playing, could the Bulldogs be upset by Samford? Mississippi State’s only wins this season are against Division I bottom feeders like the South Carolina Gamecocks and the UMass Minutemen.
It’s not likely, but Samford could be the second FCS team to beat and Power 5 team this year. The North Dakota State Bison knocked off the Iowa Hawkeyes in Iowa City earlier this season.
