NIU at Mississippi State – Game Highlights (Sept. 20, 2025)

Mississippi State improved to 4-0 for the first time since 2014, putting away NIU 38-10 in Starkville behind a stingy second half and a powerful ground game.  

Blake Shapen tossed for 160 yards and a touchdown, adding 51 yards on the ground.  

The Bulldogs ran it with authority—49 rushes for 292 yards and four rushing scores. Fluff Bothwell reached the century mark in his Mississippi State career with 101 rush yards, and Davon Booth powered in two touchdowns.  

Mississippi State’s defense clamped down after halftime, shutting out NIU in the second half and forcing key turnovers.
