Are you seriously dogging State's schedule?
Really?

Yep.
Until I see Moo State have more points than us when the clock hits 0:00 in the 4th quarter, I won't believe that a team that hasn't beaten us since 1994 will do it.

Through their first 4 games...yes. It is a legitimate criticism.

I always love the "hasn't beaten us since..." argument. Totally relevant.
How long had it been since UK beat you?

UT won last 9 out of 10

That's my personal belief. (Just like us vs. UF)
Never said it would have an impact on the outcome of the game.

Georgia used it three years ago, and Auburn this year.

I'll tell you this.
If the offense plays like they did all day vs. UGA and the defense steps it up like they did in the 4th quarter, then we will win this game.
IMO

UT has played 2 top 11 teams. MSU hasn't played a ranked opponent. The only road trip MSU made was to Troy. I would say he has a right to question the strength of MSU's schedule.
However, as I said before MSU is a good team and will be throughout the year. With 2 weeks to prepare I just think UT can pull a W from Starkville.

UT stomps State if they play like this. even with no defense BigXII offensive shootout I think UT wins

Not possible in Starkville. State will control the clock and keep your offense off the field, our D is good enough to get stops and or turnovers. 31-20 State

Same UT team that lost to UK last year and they have already proven it. Bray doesn't have what it takes to put a game away or pull out a win, and you edged out Akron. Yeah we have a slow start to our strength of schedule, so did UGA until Saturday (in which their defense wasn't impressive at all) and they are ranked in the top 5.
My thoughts are that UT still had an at large unproven offense, without doubt it has a big upside but you didn't look great against UF, and they don't have the caliber of defense we will see at Bama or LSU, and is probably of a similar caliber as the AU defense. (no flame I think UF is the best team in the East). It's sad that State will literally have to be 6-0 and destroy UT to crack the top 15 (if then). I'm fine with being underrated even though it's frustrating to think that of AU had pulled out the game agains us the would probably be the only 2 loss team in the top 25.

I hate that people this dumb have freedom of speech.
Let me guess, you think your D is gumptastic and that you'll blank LSU too.

Never said it wasn't. Copy and pasted the schedule and results from Rivals.

Laugh all you want that defense held LSU to 10, the same team that put up 45 on Washington.
