15 Dak Prescott, QB, 6-2, 230, So.: Prescott is a Louisiana boy from Haughton who considered LSU before signing with the Bulldogs. He fits better into Mullen's offensive philosophy with his dual-threat ability. He leads the team in rushing with 215 yards and five touchdowns on 37 carries and has been a proficient passer. He's connected on 47 of 85 throws for 709 yards and three touchdowns with only one interception. Prescott isn't just a speedy runner but a physical one, too, at 230 pounds.

He could wind up playing more snaps even though Russell starts. When State needs a first down he's the guy who gets the ball. His runs have picked up first downs 14 times and he's carried nine times on third down. He rushed for 133 yards on 22 carries against Auburn, including a 47-yard run.
