The Bulldogs have put up some impressive offensive numbers under sixth-year coach Buddy Pough. A big reason this team is knocking on the door to its first playoff trip in over two decades is an offense that's considered among the best in the MEAC.

At quarterback, S.C. State will enter the season with a quarterback battle between Malcolm Long and DeWain Clark. Long was Cleve McCoy's backup last season, but Clark's performance in the spring game (21-of-27 passing, 160 yards, two touchdowns) demonstrated that Long won't secure the starting spot easily. Ford will have some company — and competition — in the backfield. Tailback Anthony Campbell, a transfer from Auburn, had 15 carries for 133 yards in the spring game.
