http://www.bulldawgjuncti...s/showthread.php?t=21850For argument sake let's take a look at where the Bulldogs would stand minus the Auburn outing, which is proving to be the exception... not the rule.
State allowed rushing totals of 62 yards against Jackson State and 33 and 30 in the last two games (41.7 ypg). The total offense numbers against State aside from the Auburn game are 194, 157 and 263 (204.7 ypg). Both of those averages would be good for second nationally. As it is, MSU's defense ranks 31st in the country in total defense and 56th against the run.
