Mississippi State Storylines For Week 4 . . .aMississippi State has played five of the eight teams that currently comprise the Sun Belt Con- ference and holds a 25-3-2 advantage. The Sun Belt team MSU has faced the most is Arkansas State (15-0-1).aMSU’s depth chart on both sides of the football features just six starting seniors (3 offense, 3 defense) and two backups that are seniors (2 offense).aDan Mullen is the fourth-winningest coach in program history, trailing just Emory Bellard (37), Allyn McKeen (65) and Jackie Sherrill (65).aIn the loss to Auburn, MSU had two key streaks snapped — six-straight wins in the month of September and 39-straight wins when leading after three quarters.aMSU threw for 213 yards against Auburn, marking the 14th time in the last 15 games the Bull- dogs threw for at least 200 yards.aIn the last two games, the Bulldogs have amassed 971 yards for an average of 485.5 a game.aIn its last 12 trips to the red zone, MSU has scored 11 times — 9 touchdowns and 2 field goals.aOn the year, the MSU defense has forced 12 three-and-outs.aSophomore defensive end Ryan Brown earned his first-career start at Auburn.aAgainst Auburn, MSU was credited with a season-high three sacks and now has four on the year.aThe Bulldogs are the only SEC team with both a blocked field goal and blocked punt and one of four nationally — Colorado State, Minnesota and Oregon.aWith 50 all-purpose yards, senior LaDarius Perkins has 3,615 for his career, the fifth-most in school history.aIn regular-season non-conference games under Dan Mullen, the Bulldogs are 15-3.aSenior free safety Nickoe Whitley had two interceptions against Auburn to give him 12 for his career, which ties him for the most among all active FBS players and ties him for second most in school history. The last time he had two picks was against Northwestern in the Gator Bowl.aIn three games, junior wideout Jameon Lewis has caught 10 passes for 152 yards. All of last year, he had 10 receptions for 108 yards.aMSU has lost S Jay Hughes and OL Justin Malone for the year due to injuries.aSeason captains for MSU this year are Gabe Jackson, LaDarius Perkins, Tyler Russell and Denico Autry.

had four punts against Auburn that covered 50-plus yards. In all, he punted seven times for an average of 46.6 yards, with a long of 52 yards.


PRESCOTT HAS CAREER DAYIN TOUGH SETBACK AT AUBURN

n Sophomore signal caller Dak Prescott had a ca-reer day against Auburn. He completed 15 of his 28 passes for 213 yards, all career highs, while rushing for 133 yards and two touchdowns. His rushing yards tied for the 34th most in school history and were the sixth most in an SEC game with Dan Mullen at the helm. He was also the first MSU quarterback to rush for 100-plus yards and pass for 200-plus yards since Chris Relf (224 passing, 103 rushing) against Arkan-sas in 2010.

INJURED PLAYERS RETURNn After missing the Alcorn State game due to inju-ries, Doak Walker Award candidate LaDarius Per-kins, defensive lineman P.J. Jones and Bronko Nagurski Trophy Watch List safety Nickoe Whitley returned to the starting lineup. Although he didn’t start, cornerback Jamerson Love saw action as a reserve.

THE RARE TWO-POINT CONVERSIONn When Auburn scored its first touchdown of the game, the Tigers didn’t settle for one point after. Instead, they converted the rare 2-point conver-sion, marking the first time since Troy in 2002 an opponent was successful on its 2-point passing try.

TYLER RUSSELL CLIMBING MSU CAREER PASSING CHARTS

n With his 10-of-16 passing performance in the sea-son opener against Oklahoma State for 133 yards, senior quarterback and Maxwell Award candidate Tyler Russell moved up in MSU career passing charts. He’s now fifth in career yards with 4,699 as he moved past John Bond, while standing tied for fourth (Tony Shell) with 349 completions. Heading into the Troy game, he remains one touchdown pass shy of tying Derrick Taite’s record of 38.

SKINNER LEADING THEWAY DEFENSIVELY

n Butkus Award Watch List selection Deontae Skinner has led the Bulldogs in tackles in two of the three games this year. After totaling 10 tackles against Oklahoma State, he was credited with five against Alcorn State, fol-lowed by four against Auburn. He also recorded an interception against ASU, which thwarted the Braves’ opening drive. That pick led to MSU’s first touchdown of the season, an 11-yard run by quarterback Dak Prescott. On the year, he and sophomore linebacker Be-nardrick McKinney, a member of the Bednarik and Butkus Award watch list, share the lead with 19 stops each. McKinney also paced MSU with 9 tackles at Au-burn, while safety Kendrick Market was second with 7.

SHUMPERT SHINESn Although an ankle injury sidelined starting running back and LaDarius Perkins against Alcorn State, production in the backfield didn’t falter. True freshman Ashton Shumpert paced the Bull-dogs’ ground attack with 98 yards in his collegiate debut. Not since Anthony Dixon in 2006 had a true fresh-man led Mississippi State in rushing. Nationally, Shumpert is one of five true freshmen FBS running backs to score twice in their 2013 col-legiate debut and one of only two to rush for 90-plus yards. Against Auburn, he had had just one carry for 2 yards.

A CLOSER LOOK ATTHE TROY SERIES

n The first meeting between the two in 2001 ended in shocking fashion as Troy claimed a 21-9 win in a game delayed because of a tornado. Since then, however, the Bulldogs have won the last two meetings. Those outings have been close. In 2002, MSU survived an 11-8 affair, while last sea-son at Troy, the Bulldogs held on for a 30-24 victory. In the three games, Mississippi State has averaged 16.7 points, while the Trojans have averaged 17.7 points.

HOLLOWAY’S LONE KICK IS QUITE LONGn Freshman Brandon Holloway has had just one kick off return, but he made that lone return count. Against Alcorn State, Holloway opened the second half with a 95-yard return to give MSU possession at the 1. The drive culminated three plays later with a TD by Ashton Shumpert.

FEWER FLAGS A WELCOMED IMPROVEMENTn After being flagged 11 times for 74 yards in Houston against Oklahoma State, the Bulldogs have been pe-nalized just 8 times for 58 yards in their last two games. MSU is currently 6th in the SEC with 44.0 penalty yards a game.

FORCING TURNOVERS,TOUGH ON THIRD DOWNS

n Mississippi State’s defense has proven its ability to create turnovers. After forcing Auburn into three miscues (2 intercep-tions, 1 fumble), the Bulldogs have now created two or more turnovers five out of the last six games. In the last two games, the MSU D has been stingy on third down, as foes have converted just 9-of-29 op-portunities (.310).

HOLMES EVERYWHEREn Against Alcorn State, junior Christian Holmes was all over the field. Literally. In addition to his normal role as tight end, he also found himself on special teams. But it didn’t stop there. After making the move from linebacker to tight end in the offseason, he also found himself back on the defensive side of the ball against the Braves. For the game, he was credited with two tackles.

MILTON ADDS TO HIS TD TOTAL

n Sophomore running back Derrick Milton scored two touchdowns against Alcorn State, marking the first time in his career he’s scored more than once. He has now found the end zone four times as a Bulldog, three on the ground. Against the Braves, he scored his first receiving TD, a 14-yard pass from Dak Prescott in the second quarter for a 14-0 advantage.

SEVERAL MSU PLAYERS CREDITED WITH FIRST-CAREER SACKS

n Mississippi State registered a season-best three sacks against Auburn. Deontae Skinner, A.J. Jefferson and Richie Brown were credited with those sacks, the first of their collegiate careers. Against Alcorn State, junior defensive lineman Cur-tis Virges recorded a sack in the first quarter, ending a 10-quarter drought for the MSU defense.

OFFENSIVE FIREPOWERn Against Alcorn State, MSU totaled 566 yards of total offense, which tied for the 9th most in school history. It was the fourth-best production with Dan Mullen at the helm, with the 645 yards at Memphis in 2011 setting

the mark. Against the Braves, MSU ran 87 plays, which is tied for the most in the SEC with Missouri, Texas A&M and South Carolina.

BULLDOGS WELCOME NEWASSISTANT COACHES

n After a year of very little change in the coaching staff, Dan Mullen had to make three changes this offseason. Joining his staff is receivers coach Billy Gonzales, who came to MSU after spending one year at Illinois and two seasons at LSU. Also new is Deshea Townsend, a two-time Super Bowl champion who was an assistant with the Arizona Cardinals the past two years. Additionally, David Turner joins the staff as the de-fensive line coach after three years at Kentucky.

BULLDOGS PLACE FIVE PLAYERSON SEC COACHES’ ALL-SEC TEAM

n Mississippi State had five players named to the 2013 SEC Coaches’ Preseason All-SEC Team. Offensive guard Gabe Jackson from Liberty, Miss., represented the Bulldogs on the first team. Featured on the second team was senior running back LaDarius Perkins of Greenville, Miss. Last year, Perkins became the ninth player in school history to rush for 1,000 yards in a single season with 1,024. Making third team were seniors Denico Autry (DE) and Nickoe Whitley (S) and sophomore Benardrick McKinney (LB). McKinney earned freshman All-American honors in 2012 after finishing 6th in the SEC with 102 stops.

THREE WITH DEGREESn Mississippi State currently has three players on its roster who have already graduated — P Baker Swe-denburg, S Nickoe Whitley and OL Blaine Clausell.

DEFENSE SOLID IN OPENER AGAINST OSUn Last season, Oklahoma State finished third in the FBS in scoring at 46.0 points. But against the Bulldogs, the Cowboys managed just 21. MSU also held OSU scoreless in the first quarter, marking the first time in 35-consecutive quarters it failed to score. In the first half alone, Mississippi State forced Okla-homa State to punt four times. The Cowboys’ six total punts were their most since punting six times against Missouri in 2011, a span of 20 games.

THREE BULLDOGS SELECTED IN 2013 NFL DRAFT

n Last April, Mississippi State had three players select-ed in the NFL draft for the second-straight year. Leading the way was Darius Slay in the second round with the 36th pick by the Detroit Lions. Also in the second round, Johnthan Banks, the Jim Thorpe Award winner went to Tampa Bay with the 43rd overall pick. In the fifth round, Josh Boyd was taken by the Green Bay Packers with the 167th pick. Under Dan Mullen, the Bulldogs have had 12 play-ers drafted.

By thenumBerS

2 - Jameon Lewis rushed for his 2nd TD at Auburn and the first since his collegiate debut at Memphis in 2011.

3 - At Auburn, Preston Smith recorded the 3rd forced fumble of his career.

189 - Through three games Robert Johnson has 189 receiv-ing yards. All of last year, he had 164.

“Deontae Skinner is one of my favorite players of all time that I’ve ever coached. I mean he’s an unbelievable human being. Just the development he’s done playing sam linebacker, playing some mike linebacker last year, and now he’s a big time willie ‘backer. High character, and he’s the heart and soul of what we do.” — MSU defensive coordinator

Geoff Collins on senior linebacker Deontae Skinner.

In his fifth season, Dan Mullen has revitalized and reenergized the Mississippi State fan base. From the moment of his intro-duction on Dec. 10, 2008, as the 32nd head coach in school

history, supporters have turned out in record numbers and ca-pacity crowds to support the Bulldogs. Mississippi State fans have sold out a school-record 24 con-secutive home games at Davis Wade Stadium. Each of the last three years has seen the school’s attendance record broken. In fact, 19 of the school’s Top 20 crowds have occurred in the last four seasons, with all seven crowds in 2012 ranking in the Top 25 all-time. The Bulldog faithful have gone on to watch the head coach lead the Maroon and White’s football program to three-straight postseason bowl wins for the second time in the 113-year history of the program. Just four years into his tenure, Mullen (.556) owns the high-est winning percentage as a coach at State since the late Darrell Royal in 1954-55 (.600), and is already fourth in school history for wins by a MSU head coach (30). On top of that, Mullen has dominated the Egg Bowl rivalry (3-1), becoming just the second MSU coach and the first since Sid Robinson from 1917-19 to start off 3-0 against Ole Miss. Mullen was widely regarded as one of the top young minds in college football when he arrived at Mississippi State, and he brought not only an impressive offensive resume and a list of NFL-developed quarterbacks, but also an energy and passion for the college game. Improvement wasn’t limited to fan enthusiasm, as Mullen ignited the Bulldogs to a nine-win season in just his second year, and then another successful season in 2011. With Mullen’s mas-terful offensive mind, the Maroon and White broke the school record for six different offensive categories in 2012, including passing touchdowns in a season (28) and scoring (383). In 2010, State won six games in a row in the middle of the season and finished among the Top 10 in school history in the following categories - passing yardage, completion percentage, passing touchdowns, rushing attempts, rushing yards, rushing touchdowns, total plays, total offensive yards, per-game offense and first downs. The defense also amassed the 10th-highest sack total in school annals. The 2010 Bulldogs closed out the season with nine victo-ries after posting the largest margin of victory in a bowl game in school history. The resounding 52-14 Gator Bowl win against Michigan capped a truly remarkable year. With the nation’s toughest schedule in 2009, State’s rushing attack, led by first-team all-Southeastern Conference selection and current NFL running back Anthony Dixon, finished ninth nationally with a 227.6 rushing yard average per game. State av-eraged 371.9 yards of total offense per game, the ninth-highest total in school history and the most since 2000 at the time. Mullen’s first season concluded with a rousing 41-27 victo-ry against MSU’s in-state rival, which brought the Golden Egg back to Starkville. He became the only the third Mississippi State coach to win his Egg Bowl debut since 1939, joining Allyn McK-een and Jackie Sherrill. The Bulldogs posted a 5-7 overall record in 2009, including three road victories. During the previous four seasons as the offensive coor-dinator and quarterbacks coach at the University of Florida, Mullen molded a Heisman Trophy, Davey O’Brien and Maxwell Award-winning quarterback, along with a Rimington Trophy finalist and a Biletnikoff Award semifinalist. In 2008, Mullen’s offensive attack ranked third nationally in scoring – averaging better than 45 points per game as the Ga-tors scored at least 30 points in 12-of-13 games. The 587 points scored eclipsed the previous Florida mark, set in 1996. Florida rushed for a school-record 41 touchdowns that season and UF’s 80 rushing touchdowns over the two seasons ranked second nationally Overall, Florida’s rushing yardage of 2,987 ranked ninth nationally in 2008 and was the third-highest total in school history. Seven offensive players were recognized as All-Southeast-ern Conference selections following the season in which Mullen helped UF claim its second SEC Championship and a chance to play for its second national championship in three seasons. The Gator offense ranked first in the SEC in scoring offense and total offense for a second-straight season in 2008, averag-ing 45.2 points and 442.4 yards per game. Under Mullen’s tute-lage in 2007, UF averaged 42.5 points and 457.2 yards. In 2007, Mullen directed the Gator offense to the third-high-est point total ever by a UF unit and the top single-season marks for rushing touchdowns and third-down conversion percent-age. Florida’s offense scored 75 touchdowns, second most in the SEC.

Mullen orchestrated a UF attack that was the only one in the nation to have rushed for a touchdown and passed for a touchdown in every game during the season. He also helped UF score on 83-of-152 drives in 2007 for a league-best 54.6 per-cent, marking the best number since the stat was tracked by the SEC in 2000. Florida additionally averaged 7.0 yards per play that year, the fourth-best total in the nation. Lastly, the Gators averaged 5.3 yards per rush, the second-best number in school history. In 2007, Mullen helped coach sophomore quarterback and current NFL star Tim Tebow into a Heisman Trophy, Maxwell and Davey O’Brien award winner, 78th Sullivan Award winner and AP first-team All-American among other honors. He also tutored six offensive players to the All-SEC team: Tebow, NFL Pro Bowler Percy Harvin, Cornelius Ingram, Brandon James, Jim Tartt and Drew Miller. In Florida’s 2006 national championship, Mullen oversaw an offense that averaged 29.7 points and 396.1 yards per game. In the BCS National Championship Game, he engineered an attack that produced 41 points against a top-ranked Ohio State squad that was limiting opponents to less than 11 points per game on the year. Under Mullen’s tutelage, quarterback Chris Leak opened the contest by going 9-for-9 for 99 yards and a touch-down en route to earning Offensive MVP honors. The 2006 Gator offense posted 76 plays of 20 yards or more, 19 of which went for touchdowns. Florida passed for 29 touch-downs in 2006, while Leak ranked among the national leaders with 23 scoring tosses. Tebow matched UF’s then single-season record for rushing touchdowns by a quarterback with eight scores, and his 5.3 yards per carry average placed second na-tionally among signal callers. Six different players averaged at least 5.0 yards per carry. In 2005, Chad Jackson played his way to Biletnikoff Award semifinalist status after matching the UF single-season record with 88 receptions, a figure that led the SEC and finished sixth nationally. Center Mike Degory was also named a finalist for the Rimington Trophy, given annually to the nation’s top center, during that campaign. Both earned first-team All-SEC honors. Mullen went to Florida from Utah with Head Coach Urban Meyer, with whom he had spent 10 seasons. While the quarter-backs coach at Utah, Mullen developed current NFL star Alex Smith – the first overall selection in the 2005 NFL Draft – from a pocket passer into an efficient executor of the spread, making him one of the most versatile threats in college football. Smith took over the starting job three games into Mullen’s tenure, passing for 2,247 yards and running for 452 to finish second in the Mountain West in total offense in 2003. The 2004 campaign saw Smith earn National Player of the Year honors from The Sporting News and Sports Illustrated, while also becoming Utah’s first-ever Heisman Trophy finalist. Smith also garnered final consideration for the Davey O’Brien and Walter Camp National Player of the Year Awards. Smith passed for 2,952 yards and 32 touchdowns and ran for 631 yards and 10 scores on the year, ranking second in the nation with a 176.5 efficiency rating and leading the Utes to a perfect 12-0 season and a Fiesta Bowl championship. As a team, Utah finished the 2004 season third in the nation in scoring offense (45.3) and total offense (499.8). Prior to his stint at Utah, Mullen served as quarterbacks’ coach at Bowling Green for two seasons, putting up 6,627 yards of total offense and scoring 81 touchdowns during that span. In 2002, quarterback Josh Harris threw for 2,425 yards, ran for 737 yards and completed the campaign as the nation’s third-lead-ing scorer. Mullen spent the two years before his Bowling Green stint as a graduate assistant at Notre Dame, and before that as-sisted with Syracuse’s 1998 BIG EAST championship and Orange Bowl run. A two-year starter at tight end for Ursinus College in Col-legeville, Pa., Mullen earned first-team All-Centennial Confer-ence honors as a senior. He is married to the former Megan West, and the couple has two children, Canon and Breelyn Elisabeth.

THE LAST MEETING ... GAME RECAP ...

TROY, Ala. - Thanks to career nights from LaDarius Perkins, Chad Bumphis and Darius Slay, the Mississippi State Bulldogs (3-0) avoided upset Saturday night, defeating the Troy Trojans (1-2) 30-24.

Perkins and Bumphis combined for over 440 all-purpose yards and four touchdowns to help the Bulldogs to victory.Perkins amassed a careeer-high 179 yards and a score on the ground, while Bumphis added 180 yards and three touchdowns through the air.

For the first time in MSU history, the Bulldogs had a running back and a receiver total 175-plus yards each in a game. Bumphis also tied school records for touchdown receptions in a game (3) and career (17) with his three Saturday night.

On the defensive side, Slay tacked on two interceptions and a fumble recovery, leading the Bulldog defense to four forced turnovers.

After a field goal on MSU’s second possession, Troy drove down the field for a touchdown and the early lead. A Perkins’ 30-yard touchdown scamper following a muffed punt by the Trojans put the Bulldogs on top again, a lead State would not relinquish.

Early in the second quarter, Bumphis took a screen pass 72 yards for his first touchdown of the night. Nearing the end of the first half, Tyler Russell again connected with Bumphis on a 58-yard play-action pass that gave State a 23-7 lead at halftime.

Troy struck back in the second half, posting a 4-yard TD rush for the lone score in the third quarter. With the fourth quarter looming, Troy was only nine points back and looking to strike.

Trojan Justin Albert then reeled off a 31-yard touchdown run to start the fourth, cutting the MSU lead to just two at 23-21 with 12:40 left on the clock, and Troy was right back in the contest.

With the Bulldogs needing an answer on offense, MSU assembled a 12-play, 74-yard drive. On the second fourth-down conversion of the drive, Russell connected with Bumphis for the third time on the evening as he just got a foot inside the back boundary of the end zone, widening State’s lead back to nine at 30-21.

Troy’s offense then put together another solid drive, but stalled in MSU territory, coming away with a 40-yard field goal to trim the lead back to within a score at 30-24.

But MSU took over and was able to run out the clock thanks to the pounding running game led by Perkins.

Russell led the Bulldogs in passing, throwing for 244 yards and three touchdowns, continuing his impressive junior campaign.

Defensively, Cameron Lawrence had 13 tackles to lead all Bulldogs.

In front of a raucous crowd at Reliant Stadium, Mississippi State (0-1) fell to No. 13 Oklahoma State (1-0), 21-3 in a hard-fought battle in the 2013 AdvoCare Texas Kickoff game.

The Bulldogs struck first in the 2013 season opener, with sophomore Devon Bell nailing a 40-yard field goal on the first drive of the game.

MSU’s defense followed the field goal by stifling the Cowboys’ up-tempo offensive attack, forcing five punts in the first half.

Momentum swung near the end of the first half when OSU put its first points on the board as quar-terback J.W. Walsh scored on a 3-yard QB keeper to give the Cowboys a 7-3 lead with a little more than two minutes remaining.

Following an MSU turnover on downs, Oklahoma State drove to the Bulldogs’ 32 and set up for a 49-yard field goal with just seconds left. The attempt was blocked by senior defensive back Nickoe Whitley and sophomore defensive back Taveze Calhoun returned the ball just nine yards short of the end zone to complete the first half.

The third quarter proved to be the turning point in the game as OSU scored on its first drive with a one-yard touchdown from senior running back Jeremy Smith, giving the Cowboys a 14-3 lead.

Sophomore Dak Prescott entered the game for injured senior quarterback Tyler Russell and put together several solid drives, but before a missed field goal, OSU’s Smith scampered for a 20-yard score, making it 21-3 OSU.

The Bulldogs drove into Cowboy territory one more time in the fourth, but were stopped short when a Prescott pass went through the hands of Robert Johnson and was intercepted.

CSS

In the first home game of the 2013 season, Dan Mullen and his Mississippi State Bulldogs handled the Alcorn State Braves 51-7 to move to 1-1 on the year.

The Bulldogs had seven new starters from the Oklahoma State game, including sophomore quar-terback Dak Prescott, who played the entire first two quarters and led his team to a 37-0 halftime lead. Prescott gave way to freshman Damian Williams in the second half.

Freshmen were a big portion of the contest, as true freshmen led MSU in both rushing and receiv-ing, with Ashton Shumpert (98 rushing yards and two touchdowns) making his debut in the backfield, while wide receiver Fred Ross had three catches for 46 yards.

“The losses always look worse than they are and often the wins look better than they are,” Mullen said. “There are certainly some things we need to coach and improve on from this game.”

Prescott started the Mississippi State scoring binge with an 11-yard touchdown run in the first quarter and was followed by a pair of Derrick Milton touchdowns to give the Bulldogs a 21-0 lead just minutes into the second quarter.

Shumpert punched in his first of two one-yard touchdown plunges in the second quarter to put the home team ahead 28-0. A Jameon Lewis 31-yard touchdown pass from Prescott and a 26-yard field goal closed the first-half scoring.

The Bulldogs resumed the touchdown string in the third quarter as Shumpert cashed in again from a yard away. Alcorn State got a 25-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter from John Gibbs Jr. to Tollette George, but a Nick Griffin 10-yard touch-down run finished the scoring.

The 556 total yards of offense by Mississippi State were tied for the ninth most in a game in program history.

ESPN2

In a tough ending for the Bulldogs, Mississippi State fell 24-20 in the final minute to Auburn at Jordan-Hare Stadium in the 2013 Southeastern Conference opener for both teams.

Auburn jumped out to an 11-0 lead on a 40-yard field goal and 76-yard touchdown pass from Nick Marshall to Quan Bray before MSU climbed back into the contest in the second quarter, trailing only 14-13 at halftime.

MSU got on the scoreboard with just over four minutes remaining in the opening quarter as Jameon Lewis ran for a 14-yard touchdown. Auburn answered with a field goal to make it a 14-6 advantage, but the Bulldogs responded again, this time on a five-yard touchdown run by sophomore quarterback Dak Prescott.

In the second half, State seemed to take con-trol of the contest, taking a 20-14 lead in the third quarter on a Prescott two-yard touchdown run. The defense helped turn the game around, holding the Tigers to just 18 yards during the third frame.

Clinging to a 20-17 advantage with under a minute to play, Auburn drove the length of the field and scored the game-winning touchdown with 10 second to play on an 11-yard toss from Marshall to C.J. Uzomah.

Despite the setback, Prescott became the first Mississippi State quarterback to reach 200 pass-ing yards (213) and 100 rushing yards (133) in a game since Chris Relf (224 passing, 103 rushing) against Arkansas in 2010.
