the state guys here on the rant might be overly confident but I can assure you that Mullen will have the team settled and focused. he is not taking this game for granted.

I can assure you that I'm not one of these. In fact I have stated in several other threads that IF State can win this game I will be tickled to death. Nothing easy in the SECW especially on the road. Auburn is loaded with young talent and if they gain some momentum and confidence early in the game then State will be in trouble.

not confident at all on a 10 scale, i'll say 3 or 3.5... up from a 2 a couple days ago.

we don't match up that well... we can't stop the run, and strugglel to run... State's gonna run some HUNH and we're gonna struggle to get aligned properly. Plus they've had an extra couple days of rest.

Shouldn't be too high after last week. Especially after relying on an onside kick to win.

I'll just simply state this. State ran around 4 total offensive plays last week and scored at will, pulling starters in 3rd. Defense was without 2 starters the entire game. Given Memphis is pretty terrible, then again so is a 4-8 Utah State team. MSU played on road and AU at home. Auburn better be able to score 42 in this one or it will be a long day on the Plains. Also, MSU didn't show one blitz the entire game while AU had to pull out all stops to come from behind from a inferior opponent. Unless Chizik has another $200k QB he's hiding, its gonna be a long day and the Orange and Blue faithful will be leaving well before they did against Utah Junior College.

I must say that Cam was the best $250k investment I've seen in recent memory. Look at team Before Cam, during Cam, and after Cam. That explains it all. Doesnt take a Bama grad to figure that one out.
