Mississippi State has canceled the road games for upcoming home-and-home series against Memphis, Southern Miss, and Tulane. This decision aligns with the SEC's shift to a 9-game conference schedule, necessitating adjustments to non-conference matchups. As a result, Mississippi State will host Memphis in 2034 instead of making a road trip in 2028, while they will play Southern Miss in Starkville on Sept. 15, 2029. The previously scheduled Tulane matchup has also been altered to a single game in Starkville on Sept. 11, 2032, marking their first meeting since 2007.
