The past two weekends of Mississippi States football season have been a dramatic roller coaster ride: ascending to a euphoric high and dropping to a sobering low.First, there was a stunning 35-28 win over then-No. 4 Texas A&M on Nov. 5 that shook up the national playoff picture. Then last weekend, the Bulldogs were totally dominated in a 51-3 loss to No. 1 Alabama.Theres certainly no shame in losing to the Crimson Tide, but the fact that the Bulldogs (4-6, 2-4 Southeastern Conference) werent competitive was frustrating for the program. Now Mississippi State must win its final two games, starting with a home game against Arkansas (6-4, 2-4) on Saturday, to become bowl eligible for a seventh straight season.We just have our backs in a corner and we have to find a way to win, Mullen said.Mullen didnt seem concerned that the lopsided Alabama loss blunted momentum from the Texas A&M win. Sometimes, he said, you just have to acknowledge a tough game and move on.I think Alabama has done a great job of separating themselves a little bit, Mullen said. But I think when you watch every other game, I dont know if there is a result with any two teams that would shock anyone within the SEC West.With that in mind, the Arkansas-Mississippi State matchup appears to be much more fair fight.Mississippi State has a fairly balanced offensive attack, but leans toward the run game. Sophomore quarterback Nick Fitzgerald is tied for seventh in the SEC with 854 yards rushing and eight touchdowns. He often teams with running back Aeris Williams, who has improved as the seasons progressed, to form a potent combo when running the Bulldogs read-option offense.Williams, a 6-foot-1, 217-pound sophomore, became a bigger part of the offense when starter Brandon Holloway missed a few games with an ankle injury. Now Holloway is back, but Williams is still getting plenty of playing time.He was given that opportunity and certainly made the most of it, Mullen said.Arkansas has struggled to stop the run. The Razorbacks are giving up 217.6 yards per game on the ground, which ranks 12th out of 14 league teams.Mississippi States current predicament is similar to 2013, when the Bulldogs were 4-6 in November and had a young team, but rallied to beat Arkansas and Ole Miss in the final two weeks to make the postseason.Mullen hopes the current young nucleus that includes Fitzgerald, Williams, freshman defensive tackle Jeffrey Simmons and linebacker Leo Lewis can pull off a similar feat.There are a lot of similarities, Mullen said. Both teams were very young we suffered a lot of injuries that year. We had some tough games and there we are with two games left having to go battle and fight.-----Follow David Brandt on Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbrandtAP .

Vapormax Chrome Blush . LOUIS -- Attorneys for the St. Vapormax Plus Reverse Sunset . -- There were a lot of firsts for the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night. ARNHEM, Netherlands -- Gymnast Yuri van Gelder lost his legal battle Friday to rejoin the Dutch Olympic team in Rio in time to compete in the rings final on Monday.Judge Ronald Boonekamp shattered Van Gelders Olympic dream when he rejected his request for an injunction ordering the Netherlands Olympic Committee to reinstate the gymnast.The 33-year-old was sent home late Monday after missing a training session because he overslept following an all-night foray into Rio that involved drinking four or five beers at a Dutch brewers pop-up bar in the host city.Van Gelders lawyer said in a text message to The Associated Press that it was too late to appeal the decision in time for the final.The rejection followed a high-stakes hearing in a packed courtroom in the eastern city of Arnhem that marked the latest twist in Van Gelders turbulent sports career which, alongside his 2005 world title, has also featured a ban for cocaine use and being dropped from a Dutch World Championships team for alleged drug use.Van Gelder was mobbed by media and fans as he arrived at the court and scores of people crowded into an extra room set up for the public to watch the legal battle that has dominated Dutch headlines this week, almost eclipsing performances of the countrys athletes in Rio.I had just reached an Olympic final. I celebrated with a beer, Van Gelder told reporters after the hearing, during which he told the judge he drank four or five beers. If somebody had explicitly told me that was banned, I would not have done it.Van Gelder and the Dutch Olympic committee were not immediately available for comment after the ruling.Van Gelders lawyer, Cor Hellingman, had asked the judge to order the Netherlands Olympic Committee to do all it could to ensure Van Gelder could partticipate in Mondays final, including buying him a business class ticket to Rio and, if necessary, arguing his case at the Court of Arbitration for Sport.ddddddddddddVan Gelder could have stayed in Rio to await the outcome of an appeal, Hellingman said. Instead he was more or less kidnapped and put on a plane.Harro Knijff, the Dutch Olympic Committees lawyer, rejected that characterization and denied there was a rush to justice.There was almost a full day of meetings and discussions before reaching what is, of course, this painful decision to eject Van Gelder from the team, he said during the hastily arranged hearing.Van Gelder admitted drinking at Holland Heineken House in Rio, a popular temporary venue that is a magnet for Dutch athletes and fans. But he denied drinking after that, saying he then went to his girlfriends apartment in Rio, before picking up a fellow Dutch gymnast from a nightclub and returning to the athletes village, arriving at 5:08 a.m.He said he slept through morning training, but denied that was unusual.The rings is an explosion of power. A day before the match I dont train and the day afterward, I dont train, he said. So I didnt divert from my normal routine.The Dutch Olympic committees lawyer said that the late night foray into Rio and failure to stick to agreements had led to a breakdown in trust between Van Gelder and his coach, Bram van Bokhoven, leading the Dutch gymnastic federation to recommend Van Gelder be sent home.The top of the gymnastics team -- including his own coach -- pressed for him to be kicked off the team for his behavior and his negative influence on other team members, Kijff said.
