Dan Mullen's resemblance to Uncle Eddie, the character played by Randy Quaid in Christmas Vacation, has made for some laughs around the SEC. Earlier this season, ESPN's College GameDay had Mullen read a tweet that compared him to the character during a "Mean Tweets" segment, and the Mississippi State coach responded with this memorable line from the movie:
Mullen followed up that performance with what appears to be a custom-made ugly Christmas sweater for his staff holiday party.

A+, Coach Mullen. The attention to detail on the sweater is impressive,and we think Uncle Eddie would be proud.
Mississippi State will be back in action after the holiday break in preparation for the Orange Bowl against Georgia Tech on Dec. 31.
