FINAL from Auburn: Mississippi State 17, Auburn 9

[jbcarol]

Malzahn would only commit to White being the start (sic) for the Mississippi State game

"Any time you change a quarterback, it isn't an easy decision,'' Malzahn said in a press conference Tuesday. ''Today is when (offensive coordinator) Coach (Rhett) Lashlee and I really made the decision. We feel like that is the best for the offense right now. Sean White is a guy that has gotten a lot of reps.

''He has responded very well in practices and in scrimmages. We feel like he needs a shot right now, and we have a lot of confidence in him. He is our starting quarterback going into this game; we are going to get behind him, and I know his teammates will also. He is a talented young guy and we are excited to see what he can do."

Hey listen state of Alabama, we need to talk. Is something wrong? Is there something you're not telling us? http://www.clarionledger.com/story/sports/columnists/kellenberger/2015/09/22/kellenberger-time-state-alabama-stop-crowing-football/72646044/ ...

Mullen on Auburn starting Sean White: It doesn't change our gameplan at all. I haven't seen the other guy play ever.

Malzahn on Dak: They're throwing for a lot of yards. He can run the ball at any given time. But he's flat out throwing it now.

Where did Gus Malzahn's hurry-up offense go? We took a statistical look with @CFBMatrix |   http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/index.ssf/2015/09/what_happened_to_auburnfast.html ...

Dak Prescott is 42 of 53 for 564 yards and 4 TDs in his last five quarters. And everyone wonders why he isn't running more.

You can't play much worse than Auburn has in the red zone tonight.

Most troubling? MSU only has 20 yards rushing on 7 carries. MSU hasn't even needed to try to run. Secondary issues rearing their head again.

Dak is in Auburn territory near the 35.

Dak took down an Auburn tackler like a group of thugs took him down in PCB on Spring Break.

If the MSU kicker does that vs LSU they're undefeated right now

In his last seven quarters, Dak Prescott is 57 of 76 (75 percent) for 716 yards and five touchdowns.

Prescott's last pass was his 35th attempt. He's attempted at least 35 passes in 3 games this year. Did it 4 times in 36 previous games

The last time Gus Malzahn's offense didn't score a touchdown: Sept. 15, 2012. Arkansas State lost 42-13 at Nebraska.

Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch!

So S. White was the second coming......? 

Gus is an offensive genius? (Well, awbern fans will say that he is offensive, anyways.)
