I figured I could get you to show up.

This game will tell us a bit more about what we are defensively. Would like to see us hold that rushing attack under 100 yds -- which is probably going to be pretty tough with the vanilla style of play we'll be using in this game. Also want to see a cut down on the mental errors on the blocking end.
All of this, I agree with. Both of our games this week will help us more refine some of the mistakes made in week 1(albeit, our mistakes seemed to have been fixed at halftime).

Jump on Vandy? No way i would take OM. I just can't believe Vandy is really as bad as they looked vs. Temple. Plus they always play us tough.
There ya go

UAB probably does have the better coach, but they will still lose

Well I'm pretty sure that's a true statement.

Boise was terrible
They went 8-4 last season. No one is calling them world-beaters by any stretch of the imagination. But they're hardly terrible. It's impossible to tell who is terrible and who isn't. South Carolina looked terrible but that was just one game against a really hot offense.
There are a few teams who you can already peg as terrible...USM being one. Vandy being the other.

Clark's a solid coach - MSU's gonna rape the Blazers on Saturday though.

I already know, I just wanted to be sure y'all do too. If OM doesn't win by 30+ it'll be a letdown.

They had 7 turnovers against Temple. Logical mind would say they very likely won't have 7 turnovers again. And they do typically play us very tough.
I fail to see how this falls into your "OM fans constantly building up their opponents" argument. It just looks more like you're trying to spin shite to fit your argument. Vandy looked terrible last week. Temple is a crappy team and Vandy looked like a damned JuCo squad against them. They'll very likely play a little more sound football than in week 1 just because of them having over a weeks worth of time to fix their mistakes...same as us. That doesn't mean I'm saying Vandy is underrated...they're still a crap team.
Vegas opened the spread at 14 and it jumped to 19 within a few hours. Last I saw, it was sitting at 20. That's a pretty fricking huge jump.
but...for whatever reason...you'll just spin it in your head that we're building up Vandy to be a good squad. Here's my stance on them for you to bookmark.
Vandy is a crap team this year. If it's within 4 scores, we either looked like shite for the 2nd week in a row...or went 3rd string prevent early in the 4th quarter and gave up a couple BS TD's. Feel free to bump this.

why do you "want to be sure" we do? Are you on a personal mission to keep all OM fans' opinions on check?

We can't all get torched to the tune of an 80% completion percentage and 400 yards by a shite team in week 1 -- and come away crowing about the dominance of our defense. Sorry...

The main reason is because state ain't that good. Load up and stop their weak running game and make prescott throw. He has awful accuracy and cannot throw the deep ball. Their defense is about average for sec but not impressed with offense at all

You're not going to get anyone. Sorry.
