Bulldog Roundup: Starting OT officially out against Arkansas

Mississippi State will be without one of its starting offensive tackles for Saturday’s game against Arkansas.

Albert Reese IV was listed as out on Friday’s updated Student-Athlete Availability Report. It’ll be the third game Reese misses this season after sitting out games against Alcorn State and Texas A&M.

The only unanswered questions from the availability report are on the Arkansas side.

The Razorbacks still have offensive linemen Caden Kitler and E’Marion Harris were listed as questionable in Friday’s report.

He’ll be ready this week. Here’s the latest availability report for Saturday:
