MSU will put up points in the ReliaQuest Bowl
While Mike Leach will no longer be patrolling the Mississippi State sidelines next week at the ReliaQuest Bowl, his footprint will be all over the Bulldogs’ offense.
And the Illinois defense will face arguably its toughest test of the season in the Bulldogs.
It’s a passing offense.
Like any good Mike Leach team, obviously it’s a passing offense.
The Bulldogs average 32.3 points per game and 314.3 yards per game led by 6-foot-2 junior quarterback Will Rogers.
Rogers has thrown for 3,713 yards on the season with 34 touchdowns and six interceptions and a 68.2% completion percentage.
