Mississippi State must have a higher standard in the new SEC.
STARKVILLE, Miss. — In the past few years, college football has seen over a lifetime's worth of change, from rampant conference realignment to the wild west of the transfer portal and the addition of NIL. It is a new age in athletics, and if someone is slow to the punch and not forward-thinking, he or she will quickly get left behind.
The most prestigious league in the country, the Southeastern Conference, is adding two storied programs to its ranks in 2024, Texas and Oklahoma. The league has been staunch for some time, but adding another pair of powerhouses should open everyone's eyes to what's at stake. Mississippi State is a charter member of the SEC and is located in the Deep South. The thought of the Bulldogs being dismissed from the conference or even leaving the SEC is absurd and likely will never happen. However, the standards surrounding the football program need to be elevated
Now more than ever, college football is an arms race, whether it be practice facilities, stadium upgrades, or NIL. It's hard to make up the ground in the highly competitive SEC, and while unlikely, keeping up with the times assures you will always have a spot in the premier conference.
