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.
