WATCH: Mississippi State QB's body-sacrificing helicopter dive is going viral
Mississippi State’s 31-24 home loss to Kansas State on Saturday can’t be blamed on lack of effort from QB Garrett Shrader off the bench.
The Bulldogs faced fourth-and-16 down 31-24 with under three minutes left in the game. After buying some time in the pocket, Shrader decided to try to pick up the 16 yards on the ground. The play produced this helicopter dive that’s going viral on social media.
Check it out from multiple angles:

Shrader finished 4-of-12 passing for 51 yards along with 10 rushes for 82 yards and a touchdown.
It sucks his passing stats ended up looking so bad. He had several passes outright dropped. Dude can ball, he just needs more experience.
You didn’t even go to state and you know nothing about football. Look at your picks hahahaha
Enough, you troll. You’re not fooling anybody. If you have nothing productive to say, just shut up.
On a positive side, State has something positive to long forward to with this kid. He’s played well for a true freshman.
He’s the reason KT will probably end up transferring.
You didn’t even go to State. You thought State would win this game hahahahaha
I think my mindset on what success will look like this season needs to change. This is now a transition year. Play the young ones and get them reps. I just hate Kylin isn’t getting a team that truly compliments him this year.
Yeah, agreed. Kylin is special, it’s a shame he’s saddled with a team very much in a transition year like you said. We’ve still got a lot to figure out about this team and we’re three games deep.
People are already making excuses for Moorhead…….transitional year my ass. Moorhead took a good team and made what you saw today.
The Kool-Aid drinkers for Over His Head will continue to make excuses until year-end and the team finishes 4-8. Judging by the look of the attendance today it may very well be this year. Stevens I am sure is a good kid, but he is a two-star QB that had never started a collegiate game before this season. Over His Head Promised Stevens the job before he even got here. What a real coach would have done was to let them compete on a rotating basis the way Mullen did in 2016. But Mr. Arrogant Over His Head knows everything and mark my words this team will never win anything under Over His Head. Over His Head did not want real competition for the QB position and he had predetermined that Stevens was his guy and then Shrader. If Thompson was healthy Over His Head never wanted KT, never would have played him and never will accept QB’S WITH KT skill set because of Implicit Bias. Over His Head pedestrain, stubborn philosophy will never work in the SEC and his unwillingness to be pragmatic about adopting to his player’s skill set will be his undoing and will lead to our demise as a consistent relevant football program. I pray every night and day I am wrong, but the facts are overwhelming where the trajectory of the program is heading. Too sad and painful to watch!
They ran Ed Ogeron out of Cal, then out of Oxford. Look how that turned out. JoMo may not be the next memorable MSU coach but it is WAY too soon to judge him. That is, unless, you are just a bitter troll.
Looks like a good future ahead for Shrader but he has to learn to use his head. With time running out, he has to be a QB and not a RB. Two bone-headed plays in the last 3 minutes. Not faulting him for the loss tonight, just the poor decisions late in the game. Plenty of others to point to when spreading the blame around, from the coaches to the entire defense and the o-line and Stephen Guidry. What a frustrating game to watch. Looks like it will be a struggle to be bowl eligible this year.
Looks like he can fly in future. Lol. Ms state suck and hasn’t played anybody good yet.
Bowl Eligible, are you kidding? This team is destined to win a maximum of four games? Kentucky, No way? Auburn on the Road? Are you serious? Tennessee on the road? Don’t think so? LSU(Beat Down). Bama (subjugation). Aggies(Kyle Field) a better chance of lottery numbers. Arkansas on the road(unlikely). Oxford High(Maybe). That is maybe four wins! KT could have won that game today!
Which is exactly why I said it would be a struggle. And KT wouldn’t have changed the outcome unless he also played defense.
