Quarterback
Kamario Taylor is entering his first season as the full-time starter for the Bulldogs. In two starts and some snaps taken throughout the season, Taylor completed 55.8% of his passes for 629 yards and five touchdowns to go with 458 yards and eight scores on 82 carries. His counterpart will be Aidan Armenta, who is heading into his third year as the starter for the Warhawks. Last season, Armenta completed 58.5% of his passes for 1,629 yards and 12 touchdowns. He is not much of a runner, totaling 57 yards and two scores on 60 carries.
Edge: MSU
Running back
Mississippi State is returning its top rusher from last season in Fluff Bothwell. The junior had 677 yards and six touchdowns on 142 carries. Those were all team highs, even though he missed two games due to injury. Behind him, Xavier Gayten and Kolin Wilson will jostle for the RB2 spot, while the likes of freshmen Cooper Crosby and J.J. Hill expect to get carries this season. Louisiana-Monroe went portaling for its top rusher, eventually landing Louisville transfer Don Chaney. In five seasons between there and Miami, Chaney ran for 1,030 yards and nine touchdowns on 225 carries. He will be backed up by Derrick Jameson.
