A multitude of Mississippi State players being out surely does not help their chances this Saturday. Headlined by the Bulldogs losing starting quarterback Blake Shapen to a season-ending shoulder injury in Week 4 against Florida.
But Lebby still believes that his team’s most recent bye week puts them in a better position to succeed this weekend than they would have been before.
“Yeah, we needed it. There’s no question about it, from a health standpoint,” Lebby said. “Again, just being able to refocus, recalibrate and get our guys a little bit of a break that they needed and get us back in this building with just great energy and being incredibly thankful for our opportunity and grateful for what we’ve got ahead of us.”
