This place should be awesome come Saturday night regardless of who wins. State fans have been doing a years worth of flaming this week and LSU fans have been acting like we're playing The Citadel this weekend. Somebody is melting like a mofo Saturday.

MSU will have the best D line in Tiger Stadium Saturday night.

I'll get with Miles and Chavis and see if they still want to play. After all, you posted this fact on an internet message board and it's against the law to lie on the internet, right?

In today's quarterback driven league, if the teams are remotely close at all other levels, I'll take the team with the best QB.

Against a team that has proven time and time again that they can stop that type of QB/offense?

The only D line in the SEC better than MSU's lies within our state borders.

Preston Smith has been SEC D lineman of the week 3 weeks in a row and he'll finally have all his boys beside him this weekend.

Our D line has been severely throttled back these first few tune up games. Don't be surprised when LSU's Offensive front looks like the receiving end of a jailbreak Saturday night.

So you're saying there is a 61% chance that LSU beats MSU for the 13th straight time? Sound like good odds to me.

I don't think LSU and A&M were close at all other levels of the team...thus the QB doesn't matter. In this case, however, I think the talent level, and more importantly, the experience is about even. Thus I'm going with who has the better QB.

I will say this.. The MSU Grind has easily won the SEC rant this week. If the game was played on this board, it would be no contest.

thanks for proving you don't know shite about either team.

LSU has much more talent....MSU has more experience.

Thread title is misleading, Hardy. Even though you appear confident that MSU will perform this Saturday in Death Valley, you are selling MSU short(probably out of modesty).

Think about it for a second. 50% = same win chance on a neutral field. I'd say ESPN probably knocked off a third of that for the game being at night, in Death Valley.

33% of 50% = 16.5%, so...

50% - 16.5% = 33.5%

39% - 33.5% = 5.5%

So, an even win % chance at Death Valley would be a 33.5% win chance. Since MSU was given a 39% win chance, we can clearly see that MSU is has a 5.5% better chance to win this game than LSU.

Agree. I expect to see a better MSU than in year's past. First time in 13 years that I've been excited about watching the LSU-MSU game.

Well HOLY SHITE, if State fans and all knowing ESPN says it then by god why are we even playing the damn game? Pack it boys, shut BR down this weekend, no sense even having the game!!


Well, it's percentages. Y'all have a 61% chance of pulling it out, so it's worth a shot.


Of course, the whole thing is ridiculous. There's no real way to measure percentages on a given game, only in trends. If a given game is won or lost, you'll literally have no way of determining if the percentage prediction was accurate. This sort of thing is just to pull in some eyeballs.
