It appears Mississippi State was giving out quite a few treats Saturday.
Mike Gittens tweeted:
Per a source, Auburn's defense caught on to Mississippi State's offensive calls early in Saturday's game. Any call that started with a certain letter was a run play and they figured it out by the second quarter. MSU kept on doing it. #auburnfootball
Too funny. Meanwhile, the folks at SEC Shorts dropped a new webisode this morning.

Coaches make this much harder than it needs to be. From the inception of football through the 80s, a coach whispered the play to a WR who ran in the huddle and told the other players, it worked great.
Everything about state's football program looks Mickey Mouse at the moment. The coaching is atrocious. The recruiting is atrocious. The execution is atrocious. The talent level disparity is significant. Terrible situation. And, to top it off, the AD is underwhelming. Good luck, state peeps. Gonna suck for a while.
@9:04 p.m. Until MS State fans get serious about doing to their NIL fund, the recruiting is going to continue to be atrocious.
So sick of the constant and continual "crossed-arms" look. He's got to go.
9:04 is correct. Coaches sending in the plays via wide receivers or RBs would cure all this. There are only so many ways to call in plays. It doesn’t take long to figure out the signals. Same with pitches and steals in baseball.
Keenum should run for Congress.
Has anybody even seen the AD over the past year? Seems the only thing coming out of State, other than bad football, is Salter's mouth.
From an Alabama fan, that spot about Alabama was dead on.
The decision to hire Arnett was an "emotional" one and not a "business" one. As to the AD, not sure what Keenum was thinking.
State alum here, Selmon is conspicuously absent as is our football team's talent.
It is going to be a long, long hard road. Buckle up for Croom era 2.0.
On the bright side, tickets are easy to obtain.
Message to Bama Fans: if .... IIIIFFFFF .... you make it to Atlanta, you are going to get a mudhole stomped in your ass.
Sid fits the perfect image that state is wanting to to exhibit. Both on and off the field
@11:47. Agreed. We had a few good years between 2009 and the present, but I don't see any of those in the near future.
I think they should try brining back the black jerseys.
Wish we could just go ahead, tear the bandaid off and fire this coach and staff. Doesn’t take an expert to see this ain’t workin and ain’t gonna work for state. Why put it off. We got a punter kicking 30 yard punts, Zero offense. Let the water girl finish coaching the season. She can at least hide the play calling or know when it’s been compromised.
@ the first 9:04: A "huddle," you say?
What is a huddle?
I have been watching college football for over a decade and I've never heard of, nor seen, this thing called a huddle! I may have heard it mentioned before, but just haven't seen it with my own 2 eyes.
Calls are sent from the booth via headsets to the sidelines. then calls are given to the players. unless the sidelines are yelling the calls onto the field, which they dont, there's no way to know the first letter of any play.
Gittens is full of it. Per Auburn's own media people he's not a reliable source
10:04 So you’ve never seen the backup qb’s signing plays from the sideline or people holding those big poster board signs with words, letters and images on them?
