MSU's 45-7 home victory Saturday over Jackson State launched Dan Mullen's head coaching career. Megan West Mullen, holding the couple's son Canon, congratulated her husband after the ESPNU nationally televised game. The historic event marked the first gridiron meeting between Southeastern and Southwest Athletic conference teams. Also, a sell-out Scott Field crowd of 54,232 was the third-largest in school history. The Bulldogs are at Auburn Saturday for a 6 p.m. Fox Sports Network-televised game.
