Bulldogs nationally ranked after long absence

Bulldogs nationally ranked after long absence

Coach Dan Mullen said the “wild scene” was a great experience and a first during his time with the Bulldogs.
By Sunday afternoon, Mullen saw something else he hasn’t experienced during his two-year tenure: a national ranking next to his program’s name.
On the strength of a four-game winning streak, including Saturday’s first road win over a ranked opponent since 2007, the Bulldogs (5-2, 2-2 SEC) entered the rankings at No. 24.
It’s the first time they’ve been ranked since Sept. 21, 2001, when they were No. 21.
