LSU shuts down the ‘Dogs

Dan Mullen’s Miss. State had big plans for 2011. After two SEC contests, the Bulldogs are 0-2 in the league. And worse, the Tigers of LSU sent State into a state of confusion on how to move the football and find the end zone.

Before Thursday night’s game, Mississippi State was 1-1, averaging 588 yards of offense in the first two games. Against the Tiger D – the Bulldogs managed just 190 total yards (running back Vick Ballard had 10 carries for 38 yards) and after two field goals tied LSU’s early scoring output, it was all Tigers the rest of the way. LSU wins it 19-6.
