Mike Leach gets burned by college football fans during first half of Miss State-Auburn
Published:
Mike Leach is not having a good day.
The Mississippi State coach is looking at a double-digit halftime deficit against Auburn and fans have seemingly had enough.
The 17th-ranked Tigers are up 28-10 at halftime and looking to hand the Bulldogs back-to-back losses. Auburn put up more than 300 yards of offense in the first half at nearly 9 yards a pop. Quarterback Bo Nix lit up the Mississippi State defense for more than 200 yards passing and 2 scores.
Meanwhile, Leach’s offense is averaging just over 4 yards per play and 2.2 yards per rush.
Mississippi State is 5-4 on the year, and things have been a roller coaster each week. They’ve beaten Texas A&M on the road and Kentucky at home, but hold losses to Memphis, LSU, Alabama (big), and Arkansas last week after joining the College Football Playoff Top 25.
The prospect of a big loss this week has fans feeling a little anxious.

While he’s at it, Mike Leach needs have open tryouts for defensive coordinators.

This team never looks prepared even in wins. Slow starts. All the penalties. That’s on you @Coach_Leach #Hailstate
