The Mississippi Department of Transportation is urging travelers heading to Starkville for Mississippi State’s game against the Missouri Tigers to avoid distractions and slow down on the way to Davis Wade Stadium.
The department also encouraged travelers to save tailgating for the Junction and download the MDOT Traffic App, which it described as a playbook for the Road to Game Day.
