Half the time he was wide arse open because the safeties were in the box. Chark just couldn't hold onto the ball. Chark had more drops than catches

After Chark had the long to catch for a TD MSU keep a safety over top on him efrectively doubling him the rest of the game. Canada tried little quick routes for him in 2nd half which got him a couple catches. Yeah he had a big drop down the middle late in the game, but taking into account the circumstance (down big) and the throw (slightly rushed, trying to make a play) I'm not holding that against him.

As far as the running goes, other than a safety doubling chark, everyone else was effectively in the box. A little more offensive creativity and less predictability maybe spreads their defense out more and that 4.8 yards a carry maybe is 6
