re: 2018 Predictions

Something I will add to my prediction. I have us making the Cotton Bowl but not making the SEC Title Game at 11-1. I think our Alabama game will be close but I can't predict us to win @ Alabama nor can I predict Alabama to not go 13-0. Certainly I think State can. And listen State almost defeated Alabama last year. I don't think the Gap is as huge as many people think, but winning in Tuscaloosa will be tough.

But I'm going to be bold and give State the nod to the playoffs because I don't see a real National contender in the Big 12 or the Pac 12. And honestly it wouldn't surprise me if the Big Ten would be that conference either depending on what happens with Ohio State.

Honestly this might be our best chance in a while due to us kind of being in a transitional phase in the SEC to get from Alabama to Georgia as being the dominat team. Yes Georgia lost last year, but it was a win for them to get that far and it is showing in their recruiting. I don't think this is a bad thing though because this just means Mississippi State is now more likely to be in SEC West Contention, it's just going to be that much tougher to win in Atlanta which will essentially be a road game(but if we do go to Atlanta, that Stadium is nicccce. Got a chance to go to a soccer game there!)
