Let them have their moment in the sun...It's a rare occurrence for their football program, much like the return of Haley's Comet every 76 years.

It will be over with quickly as they get into the meat of their schedule. Then reality will set in and they will begin the yearly ritual of pumping up basketballs.....

Maybe then, they will also stop pumping up their own nuts.

I think State likely finishes 4th but they could finish anywhere from 2-5 as could LSU or Auburn.


^^this^^ and this is the most frustrating thing about the current Bama dynasty. Some really good SECW teams will never get the credit they are due. Kinda like the long list of NBA players who never got a ring because they happened to play in the Jordan Era.


When watching CFB tomorrow, go through and honestly list the P5 conferences that LSU, Auburn, or MSU could or would win this year. It's a shame

Funny how all the fans focus on past games/seasons and every coach ignores the past.

Perhaps that is why they make millions and fans don’t....lol

Wilson is a pretty good upgrade at QB. He is a little careless with the ball, but he will be a handful. He makes a good 1-2 punch with Snell. Wilson definitely has great wheels, and he is passing at a 70% clip.

UK also returns most of their starters on defense. I don't think their D is the same quality as MSU's D, but they have the ability to keep UK in games.

The 10-pt spread is about right. Both teams can win, but I think MSU has more margin for error. If MSU loses the TO battle, UK has a better than average chance.


This is pretty spot on.

55% is bad. He’s a great college QB, but he’s not much of a passer. Sorry to shite on your gods.

Man, let them have some fun. They don't know how to feel before basketball season. Now, if that crazy Judd lady shows up then have at it. But, for now, let the boys in Blue enjoy it. They are deserving.

Yeah, well he makes up for his average passing with his above average running which leads to PA passes. He doesn’t have to be a great passer for this offense to be efficient. Even if you stack the box, he can still beat you on the edge in an option look with Kylin Hill who looks to be a really special player.

That's why they play the game on the field and not message boards.

We are good. We may not be on MSU level overall, but we are talented and very athletic.

All you have to do is score 1 more point than the team you are playing...the point margins are for bragging. There aren't any asterisks next to games you win because you mauled someone or won by a point.

They would have a legit chance to win any other conference.

People say the same thing about State . We will see if either team lives up to the hype.

This year that is at the very least debatable.
