Mississippi State completed its second team scrimmage; what did the head coach see?
STARKVILLE, Miss. — Mississippi State football underwent its second scrimmage in as many weeks inside Davis Wade Stadium. The Bulldogs are undergoing a lot of change under new head coach Jeff Lebby and defensive coordinator Coleman Hutzler.
The nonplaying penalties, such as false starts or illegal formations and substitutions, are critical due to the speed at which Lebby wants to run his offense. The former Oklahoma offensive coordinator wants to play at a rapid pace, but it is only effective when done cleanly. As the preseason fades away, the Bulldogs are rapidly approaching their first game week, which is conducted differently than a typical camp schedule. However, each coach has a different approach, and State coaches used this week as a sample.
Since arriving, Lebby has naturally brought a lot of excitement to the program due to his stout reputation as an offensive play-caller. The scheme shift will heavily benefit wide receivers, and the Bulldogs have some talented ones. "They will both be a huge piece to what we want to do," Lebby said. "We are trying to be really smart getting both of those guys back."
