FILE - In this Sept. 28, 2019, file photo, Mississippi State running back Kylin Hill (8) carries the ball during the second half of an NCAA college football game against Auburn, in Auburn, Ala. Mississippi State’s lack of a consistent passing attack is starting to hamper star running back Kylin Hill as opposing defenses focus on stopping the ground game. After rushing for over 100 yards in each of his first four games this year, Hill has been held below 50 yards in each of Mississippi State’s last two games. Next up is No. 2 LSU (6-0, 2-0 SEC), which has the SEC’s second-ranked run defense. (AP Photo/Butch Dill, File)
