1) Mississippi State’s offensive line continues to struggle against tough defensive fronts.
Mississippi State’s quarterbacks were sacked 5 times. Mississippi State only ran for 56 yards on 32 carries. That’s less than ideal. That’s subpar. Yeah, the Bulldogs found themselves in a position to win the game at the end, but they won’t be given many chances to come away with a victory if they can’t move the ball on the ground.
An important note here is that LSU’s defensive front is going to give most teams nightmares. Even the best offensive lines in the nation would have a hard time handling what the Bayou Bengals could throw at them.
