MSU is definitely reaping the rewards of both Bama and Auburn filling up, getting some really good player from the state...
This is what bothers me. I know Alabama is having unprecedented national recruiting success, but neglecting the state can hurt you years from now. Ask Bobby Bowden in his later years.

What can you do to help/prevent that though? Not take as many nationally elite guys?
I do like getting the overlooked guys out of MS and LA though. Those guys almost always play with tremendous chips on their shoulders, especially against the home schools. I loved how Beniquez played in the Bama game. Was really his coming out party. Think he started all of the last 3 at SLB over a SR...
I couldn't think of a better scenario in Baton Rouge than putting the ball in the hands of a LA kid, snapped by a LA kid, with another LA kid lined up at RB. Now -- it's LSU -- and I was barely driving last time we actually beat them -- but the scenario this year is as good as it's been for an upset in BR since 2000, when the first cracks in the Sherrill regime developed with a 14 pt lead in DV...
Also, on Mixon, we actually "made room" for him while at camp. He wasn't a take until then -- when he performed so well there that he basically didn't give us a choice...
