1. What is closer to the real Mississippi State team: the one that started well and finished strong vs. Louisiana Tech, the one that struggled in between or the entire game featuring the good and bad?
"I think the 'real' State team is somewhere in the middle.
The Louisiana Tech game was a tale of two extremes. The Mississippi State team shown in the first and fourth quarters looked like a team that could finish top-four in the SEC West — the offense was clicking and scored on five of their six possessions, and the defense made stops.
"However, the second and third quarters looked like a hapless team that could win three or four games, tops.
"These two iterations of Mississippi State were on such opposite ends of the spectrum, that I think it’s fair to say the real State team is somewhere in between."
