MSU defense is better than what the numbers say. A lot of the yards put up against occur during garbage time.

Do a vs. Power 5 opponent break down to see how things shake out.

Yes, we know the company line. It's just a shame that Auburn's defense hasn't given up anything in garbage time.

You do realize that this would favor State, right?

Probably weighs in our favor a little but certainly not much, looks like a pretty solid matchup.

I don't have a clue. That is why I asked to see it.

To be fair A&M had only 17 until 3 minutes leg in the game. LSU had 10 with 5 min left. Garbage time scores really skew our stats in a bad way... It pisses me off but on a positive note it makes teams underestimate us
