Mississippi State picked up their first SEC win of the year and put themselves back in the hunt for the West with their 17 to 9 victory over Auburn tonight. The Bulldogs had a bit of an up and down game but were simply better than the Tigers tonight.
1. Our offense is more successful when it is focused on throwing the ball. It's different from what we're used to seeing from Mullen, but looking at how this game went, our offense was able to move the best when passing the ball. As much as fans like to complain about the offensive line's blocking ability, they were able to keep Dak upright most of the night and kept pressure off of him when pass blocking.
