LSU game was Russell's best game by far, and not a good example of what is a standard of offense at MSU.
But Mullen did what he should have been doing... Making Russell run some. Go back and watch what opened up Wilson. Watch the safety. He bit on the fake run of....Russell. Why? Because he had a few good runs.
Our best option to win, is for that to happen.
Now if Dak is in, he is going to have to pass in the first half to keep defenses from going after his run. He also has to be successful early on.
So far, Dak hasn't been able to do so against ranked teams and teams with a pulse.
Mullen must go.

Our best option to win is with Dak in running a balanced read option offense with a heavy dose of screens and the occasional play action deep ball.
This isn't Houston, Russell isn't Case Keenum, and we don't play shitty secondary's after SEC play begins. I think you forget we are Mississippi State.
Our receivers aren't as good as the cornerbacks on the other side of the ball when it comes to route running, getting jump balls etc. Therefore we get a high completion screen to Jameon (who has been our only playmaker all year besides Dak), get him into the open field and watch him juke half the secondary.

Darkhorse I agree that I think Tyler is our best option. Not that I dont like Dak and I think he should be playing, I just think if I were a D Coord. I would be loading the box up and playing man coverage to make him beat me with is arm. Where Tyler has experience, he can change the play at the line and we have good RB's, so we dont have to have a running QB. I also think Tyler and Dak should both be out there at the same time. Both behind the center and both running up to the line as if they were changing the play but really there just trying to confuse the D. If they both played at the same time we could run or pass.
