Midwestern State football: Mustangs beat the odds to deliver monumental FCS win

History was not on the side of the Midwestern State Mustangs when they entered Turpin Stadium last Saturday night to face FCS Northwestern State. The Mustangs were 0-5 in program history against FCS teams.

However, a lot has changed since the last time the Mustangs played an FCS opponent. The current players for MSU Texas were barely alive when the Mustangs last played FCS opponent Sam Houston State to open the 2003 season. In fact, when MSU Texas played the Bearkats, they were known as the Indians.
