Mississippi State football enters year two of the Jeff Lebby-era hoping to see more of the offense they expected when he was hired. Beyond a few flashes in 2024, the Bulldog offense never fully came together in route to a 2-10 season, scoring 25.8 points and totaling 377.2 yards per game.
But it could be stronger in 2025. QB Blake Shapen returns from injury after promising play in the first four games of last season. There are plenty of intriguing pieces at the skill positions, and if a few transfers hit and Shapen stays healthy, this unit could take a significant leap.
