With Tyler Russell under center, the Mississippi State offense has taken on a new look and it looked good during the team's spring game.  Russell completed 24-of-43 passes for 312 yards and two touchdowns on the day.  Jameon Lewis was the top target with 10 receptions for 144 yards and a touchdown while vertical threat Joe Morrow added six grabs for 97 yards and a score.

For the first time in what seems like forever, a Mississippi State wide receiver (or two) could have fantasy value.  Russell is worth a shot as a QB3 while Lewis and Morrow are solid roster fillers in BCS leagues.
