Mississippi State Bulldogs face critical questions as Jeff Lebby admits game management failures cost them against Texas. Can the second-year head coach learn fast enough to salvage the season?

Jaron Spor and Landon McBride break down Lebby's rare public admission about his overly conservative fourth-quarter play-calling, comparing his learning curve to other young coaches. The discussion covers running back Fluff Bothwell's injury status and potential return against Arkansas, plus strategic debates about optimizing the backfield rotation between Bothwell and Davon Booth. Key recruiting updates include JUCO safety Dre Riley's commitment and four-star offensive tackle Bryson Cooley emerging as a prime target following Brian Kelly's LSU firing.

The hosts analyze why Lebby struggles with situational football despite his offensive coordinator pedigree, examine Mississippi State's offensive identity built around the running game, and evaluate how the Bulldogs can maximize their talented but underutilized weapons.

Tune in for insider analysis on Mississippi State football's coaching challenges, injury updates, and recruiting opportunities that could reshape the program's future.
