MINNEAPOLIS — The start to Kamario Taylor’s 2026 season as Mississippi State football’s quarterback has led to a crazy stat.
The Bulldogs have scored points on 12 consecutive possessions when Taylor has been on the field.
They took that streak into halftime on Sept. 12 with a 28-6 lead at Minnesota. MSU has scored four touchdowns on its four drives against the Gophers.
It’s also the second straight time that Mississippi State has begun the game with four consecutive touchdowns.
Taylor is 11-for-13 with 181 passing yards, three passing touchdowns and 37 rushing yards.
Ten of Mississippi State’s 12 drives in 2026 with Taylor at QB have ended in touchdowns. The other two were field goals in Mississippi State’s 62-13 win against Louisiana-Monroe.
