Georgia makes an early statement about why ?Running the football?

[CaptainObvious]

Is important to playing winning football.

[Maroonthirteen]

Damn, that looked like our start in 2017. Ouch.

That UGA style doesn't work against good defenses unless you have more talent. We need to run more, but the UGA or Arkansas offense isn't close to the answer for MSU.

Retweet!

Once Leach polishes our offense up, people are going to realize it's out best path to beating blue bloods.

Arkansas has an 8-9 win ceiling with this offense they run. Nice bowl games, but after a decade of that they'll realize their problem.

You can't beat these teams with that style.

The great thing about Leach's offense is that it forces blue blood defense to back up rather than step up. The takes away all their power and energy.

We are going to try and beat them in a sport.

Shotgun winning big at state is winning 10 games. Had Mullen returned in 2018 we would have had two 10 win seasons in 4 years running the style of offense you're saying we can't run to win big.

Excuse me but would he have won 10 because of his offense or because of the defense we had that year. Granted his offense would have been more stable than what we ran but that because it would have been the same that had been run the year before. Mullen left us. We did not send him packing. We did not hire a Mullen clone.

With a $100 mil QB, anything is possible. Can’t rely on that though

Exactly

Leach will never beat a blueblood that is having a good year while he is at State throwing it 55 times

That may be right. We need more balance for sure, but forcing blue blood defenses into 3-8s is a major advantage to MSU.

Arkansas may not cross mid field today with their style.

Yeah I saw leachs Off on that 3rd down play. Looked really good.

A) Not really. They will still control the box and blow up our RB's.

B) UPig is better but they still need to upgrade their talent. It's not their style thats killing them. They are an 8 win team this year and thats great progress for them.

UGA nor LSU controlled the box when we played them.

Other than Arkansas possibly winning 8, I disagree with your other points. I don't see that.

MSU cannot win big running what Arkansas is running. It's not possible for us or Arkansas to recruit well enough too

[Coach34]

MSU or UPig will never win big on a consistent basis. It's not possible.

We proved in 2014 we can put together a team that can challenge every now and then. We play Bama in Starkville that season- we likely win the game.
Fitz and crew should have beat Bama in 2017.

Get good on D, be physical, and control the clock. Thats the only way we will "win big" at State. We will remain a 5-7 win team running this shit. Especially once the talent level on D keeps dropping. Looking at our recruiting class right now is showing you the future

[Coach34]

They just not ready for the moment today- at all
