Preseason

[edit]

Mississippi Valley State entered the season with a new offensive coordinator, Alex Jackson, who was in his third season overall with the staff, after former offensive coordinator Ramon Flanigan became the head coach at Lincoln University.[1] On media day, Mississippi Valley State State was picked to finish fourth in the Eastern Division of the SWAC. The team had two players, defensive lineman Robert Simpson and defensive back Kevin Euegene, selected to the Pre-Season All-SWAC 1st Team Defense.[2] Two players, wide receiver Julian Staford and offensive lineman Antonio Griggs, were selected as part of the All-SWAC 2nd Team Offense.
