I heard he got a one game suspension. Is that true?
Yes. The SEC suspended him for a game. Link

Upon review of game video from the contest between LSU and Mississippi State on Sept. 20 in Baton Rouge, La., SEC Commissioner Mike Slive has announced that Mississippi State senior center Dillon Day is suspended for the Bulldog's next game, which is scheduled for Oct. 4 in Starkville.

This action is the result of multiple flagrant and unsportsmanlike acts during the game, as well as previous disciplinary action for similar behavior.

This action is taken in accordance with Southeastern Conference Constitution, Article 4.4.2 (d) which states that a student-athlete may be suspended if it is determined that the student-athlete has committed a flagrant or unsportsmanlike act.

I'm of the mind that thinks Dan Mullen should have been proactive and suspended him at least one game, because if I'm in Slive's position, you wouldn't want this to come to me without showing some disciplinary effort. For example, if Mullen had put him on suspension for one game, I would add a second; if Mullen does nothing, I eject the player from the league.

This was a blatant attempt to injure, and not his first time.

Disgusting. I'm actually ashamed to be an SEC fan today. Clearly, the SEC felt MSU should have done something and didn't so they stepped in and issued the suspension. That penalizes the player but where's the penalty to MSU for not doing the right thing in the first place? They should have an additional sanction.

I could suggest a physical impossibility (for most folks) involving a cowbell but that would probably get me a severe reprimand.
