Today changed the dynamic for our schedule ... just how so is yet to be seen.

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

I watched a little of the ECU game today and we had better be ready for them when they come to town or we'll be crying the OoC loss blues like others are today.

Right now we just need to focus on MSU and I know it's cliche but if ever it applies this season is one game at s time.

MSU will be far more focused Saturday. They are in a do or die backed in a corner position right now thanks to today.

I'm not sure where that leaves us (SCAR) but MSU losing today did not necessarily help us. They were a bump ricochet off an upright from winning their game just like we won ours.

I agree more with the 2nd statement in bold, than the 1st one. I think if anything the pressure should be more on Miss State to win and not start the season 0-2. But I also think with it being a conference game - their first one of the season, and more likely one that they had pegged as one of the better ones they had a chance to win this season (they are in the West afterall) - that they also should have been expected to be focused for it regardless of whether they lost or won this weekend.

But starting out 0-2 (0-1) is definitely the worse scenario for them than either 2-0 (1-0) or even 1-1 (1-0), so we can bet they will try to give us their best effort next week...
