“6-7,” pronounced “ six-seveeeeen ,” is haunting school halls across the country (including South Park Elementary ), making it the Gen Alpha nonsense phrase of the moment. Kids are shouting it in classrooms when a teacher turns to page 67, when lunchtime is 6 to 7 minutes away or for no reason at all.
” [Mississippi State has a] high-powered offense and does a nice job of balancing things,” Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian said on Monday. “Got two good runners, have two explosive receivers on the perimeter, and Blake Shapen, who is playing good football for them.”
Mississippi State was beaten by Florida 23-21 on Saturday, Oct. 18. Shapen threw for 324 yards on 24-of-36 attempts (66.7%) with no touchdowns and one interception. Davon Booth had 105 rushing yards on 22 carries and two touchdowns, adding two receptions for 14 yards. Thompson put up 155 yards on seven catches.
After surviving an overtime scare at Kentucky this past Saturday, Texas will turn its attention to Mississippi State. Like Kentucky, Mississippi State is still searching for its first win in SEC play.
After scraping past Kentucky in a 16-13 overtime win in Lexington, Texas will stay on the road once again and head to Starkville on Saturday for a matchup against the Mississippi State Bulldogs, making it the second straight game that the Longhorns will face an opponent that's winless in SEC action.
