Points of Focus from Mississippi State HC Jeff Lebby heading into Week 4

Mississippi State head coach Jeff Lebby used his Monday press conference to outline priorities for Week Four, when the No. 24 Bulldogs host Missouri. The team is 3-0 after three games and 1-0 in SEC play. Lebby said the offense is focused on eliminating mistakes after the win over South Carolina, particularly offensive penalties that extended drives for opponents. He emphasized the need to play cleaner, citing five penalties at left tackle and protection issues involving Miles McVay and Blake Steen. Lebby confirmed McVay will remain the starter. On defense, the Bulldogs also face depth concerns after season-ending injuries to Trevion Williams and Diesel Moye, with Eddie Kelly Jr. still not on the active roster.
