Will Mississippi State attempt to play keep away against the Aggies?

Can Mississippi State slow down the game against A&M, or will they attempt to win a shootout?

Arkansas nearly won their SEC opener last weekend by running the ball, milking the clock and not allowing Texas A&M to get into rhythm on offense. The strategy was something the Aggies' head coach brought up during the SEC teleconference Wednesday.

"We're averaging around 80 (offensive plays a game)," Kevin Sumlin said. "I'll put it this way, I've never had a game where we had 16 plays in a half. I hope it doesn't happen again."

Texas A&M led at the half 10-7 in that game.
