The Bulldogs played their home games at Davis Wade Stadium in Starkville, Mississippi and competed in the Western Division of the Southeastern Conference (SEC).

All eight victories were subsequently vacated as part of NCAA sanctions due to academic misconduct involving a tutor and online coursework.

Kansas State continued with its two-quarterback system, switching snaps between Skylar Thompson and Alex Delton.

Kansas State running back Alex Barnes managed 75 yards rushing, but the Wildcats fell short to lose the game 31-10.
