Dak Prescott leads Mississippi State to first win at No. 8 LSU since 1991

BATON ROUGE, La. -- Dak Prescott 's dynamism put a dent in the Death Valley mystique and helped Mississippi State end some long, frustrating streaks. Prescott passed for two touchdowns and ran 56 yards for another score, and the Bulldogs survived a furious fourth-quarter rally by No. 8 LSU to snap a 14-game skid in the series, 34-29 on Saturday night. Prescott, a Louisiana native who'd also been recruited by LSU, said he accomplished "exactly what I wanted to do when I committed to Mississippi State." "I just stayed true to myself, trusted my teammates, trusted the coaches and we got it done," Prescott said. "Everybody's happy right now." Prescott passed for 268 yards and rushed for 105 yards in helping Mississippi State build a 34-10 fourth quarter lead that proved insurmountable, albeit narrowly.
