Rogers throws 4 TDs as Mississippi St. tops Vanderbilt 45-6

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- , Will Rogers had a career day at quarterback for Mississippi State, but his coach Mike Leach was not overly satisfied. Rogers threw a career-best four touchdowns, two to wide receiver Makai Polk , and Mississippi State was never challenged in a 45-6 Southeastern Conference win over Vanderbilt Saturday afternoon. Rogers, the SEC leader in passing yards with 360.3 yards, threw for 386 against the Commodores, completing 41 of 57 attempts. It was the fifth time he has thrown three or more touchdown passes in a game this season and the seventh time in his career. “I thought Will was good overall,” Leach said. “Obviously, he had some sloppy play in the mix. “What he did best was maintain his composure. He was ready for the next play or next series after something went wrong. I think that rubbed off on the offensive unit and our team to a degree,” Leach said.
