Let's be honest here. Anybody with the below facts would be ranked. You have to be the most hated or disrespected program in the nation.


- Beat Preseason ranked #6 on the road
- Beat Preseason ranked #13 only allowing them 10 points.
- Beat Preseason ranked #20 by double digits
- Lost by 3 on the road at Ark who is ranked 19.
- Lost to LSU by 3

Yet you return

- 80% of your production
- return 18 starters
- Did really well in the portal...


Who did you piss off to get no love this preseason?

They have a very hard schedule and they're a Mike Leach team. They're going to lose a game or two they absolutely shouldn't. But they'll almost certainly win a game they shouldn't either.

We both see the future. MSU is winning the SEC this year. People will come around eventually.

Unlike Kentucky basketball, they weren't born on 3rd base. And they also reside in the West.

I think I speak for all state fans when I say that this is the way we like. Although if you look at the schedule, we have a very good chance of winning 9-10 games, maybe one more with a bigger upset. To me, no one in the west looks unbeatable this year.

This is how it works JJ.

-State starts unranked
-State beats ranked team
-Ranked team drops out of poll, because they lost to State.
-"State didn't really beat anybody."
-State starts next season unranked.

Leach is a spoiler. Not a contender.

Miss State wont compete for the West, but with everything they have I'm 100% sure they will ruin someone's season this year. I just hope it's not A&M.

Beat Preseason ranked #6 on the road
That number 6 team finished unranked
- Beat Preseason ranked #13 only allowing them 10 points
That number 13 team finished unranked

- Beat Preseason ranked #20 by double digits-Not sure who you speak of here. Washington was number 20 in preaseason.

- Lost by 3 on the road at Ark who is ranked 19.
Arkansas finished 22nd in the AP

- Lost to LSU by 3
LSU did not finish in top 25

They also lost to Memphis and Texas Tech
Not a very good argument here.

Good thing about being in the SEC is win and ranking takes care of itself.

I'm higher on them than most. I believe as of now they play 6 ranked teams so they'll have opportunities to climb up the polls

1. They're Moo St.
2. They play in the West.
3. Leach loses too many stupid games and is 0-10 in Thanksgiving weekend rivalry games.

Probably because they lost by 28 points to a bad Texas Tech team in their bowl game.

Please please national media and consensus keep dumping on us. When we are ranked high, we crap the bed. But when we get slighted, good things happen, and the Grind is assured.

Just like 2014. Everyone around the MSU program thought we'd be good. Didn't get noticed until we beat LSU in Week 4. Then went to #1 two weeks later.

State's going to have a good team this year. Its a shame its a year we draw Georgia from the East.
