Mississippi State – LSU Linkage
I have had a pretty busy week at work and haven’t been able to do my regular linkage posts, so I will just sort of lump them all together here. Enjoy.
The Sporting News says that LSU is among the SEC leaders in offense and defense.
And The Valley Shook talks about State’s offensive woes and how they are hurting our defense by not giving them enough time off the field.
2theAdvocate.com talks about the progress State is making under Croom, even if it is hard to measure this year. Even Les Miles gives us props:
“We all understand that Mississippi State can be a very dangerous team and we know they’re getting better,” Miles said. “There is a respect for Mississippi State that has nothing to do with some of the teams that they’ve already played. We anticipate that we’ll get Mississippi State’s best shot.
They also have an article about the size mis-match between the MSU offensive line and the LSU defensive line, as well as an interview with a very optimistic Brandon McRae.
The Bleacher Report has a critique and assesment of where Mississippi State is 5 years into Crooms tenure.
Athlon Sports also has a preview of the Mississippi State – LSU game.
Brad Locke has a feature about the Mississippi State O-line in today’s Daily Journal, also talking with J.C. Brignone about his bad snap in the Georgia Tech Game.
“The bad snap was really just a mental thing, it was dumb of me,” Brignone said. “But I was so worried about getting this block. No. 95 is supposed to be a first-day guy (in the NFL draft), so I was trying to show him I’m going to be there all day.
According to an article by Kyle Veazey, Croom intends to use all 3 quarterbacks in this weekend’s game against LSU: Wesley Carroll, Tyson Lee, and Chris Relf. He also wouldn’t say who is going to get the starting nod.
There is also a great feature about running back Anthony Dixon and the start he has gotten off to this year (and how to make it better).
And finally, someone over at the Six Pack worked up their own version of The Mississippi State Board Game (or Croom-opoly) and it made the frontpage of EDSBS. Here it is in all its glory.
