IMHO the pressure is now on us to beat MSU whereas before it was not.

I think the pressure on them has drastically increased to beat us. If they start 0-2, they're done for the rest of the year with that schedule. I watched their game, they don't have nearly as good a defense as Vandy did. Their offense all stems and is around their dual threat QB, Damien Williams. Williams didn't even start the game. Some guy named Fitzgerald did and he was awful.

We aren't a great team right now by any means, but our W looked a hell of a lot better than their L. Miss St is really weak against the pass. They were gassed defensively in the 2nd half. This is a game both teams need to win to improve their shot at a post season, but after what I saw, I'm not nearly as concerned about them beating us. I'm not guaranteeing a win, but I just didn't see anything from them game 1 that made me feel like we couldn't beat them...as we've done every time since 1999.
