Still more SEC West division titles (1) than Ole Miss does help me sleep at night.

As repeated once every decade except for the last one.
We will get our shite together again. Always do.

No Vanderbilt doing the unthinkable last year shows what a team can manage if the other half asses around

Actually if you watched that game, Vandy manhandled Bama at the LOS. Physically beat them up front. No fluke. I did not see it as a case of Bama half way playing.

Bama always absolutely obliterates State that’s why you like them. I like state b/c it’s the smaller school under dog mentality. I also LOVE the cowbells.

They were ranked #1 under Mullen so it can be done at State.

Bama is a trap game for Vandy now.
Anything can happen these days.

quote:Leach's death after Cohen left set off a cascade effect that dealt a serious blow to our AD. It was the perfect Mississippi State storm.
Cohen also didn’t help when he was here with the way he handled NIL off the jump
We won a natty and Cohen rode off into the sunset where he and Reverend Freeze are currently tanking Auburn's recruiting because of his nearly unconquerable insistence on pinching pennies (his last name of, "Cohen" will tell you why he's so avoidant of that).
And because of his propensity to absolutely refuse to believe that spending money on poor black athletes was needed, he set us back years behind every other program, let alone SEC programs. Hell, he didn't even believe in spending money on basic game day accommodations, let alone raising money to spend on athletes - or anything else for that matter. The man is a fool who could play and coach baseball. That's it. That's his only redeeming quality for why he fell into a businessman's role (well, except for one other thing).
The Auburn cult will eventually run him out of town on a rail. Bookmark it. Ban bet it.
Between Cohen and Leach's death, if it weren't for most folks being decent-minded human beings, you couldn't ASK for a better setup for a competing school to trip and fall into the shite ditch of suck for a decade+ if it were the old days.
Luckily (albeit it unfortunately for the good of the past time known as college sports), it's not the old days, and we have an AD that is raising money hand over fist to get us up to speed - a real businessman who hustles. We will be back to at least "not dog shite" before long. We've always punched above our weight. It may not be with Lebby, or it might, but the worst thing we can do is can him if we show competency this year.*
* Obviously a drubbing by the shitbirds and Alcorn State is not, "showing competency."

If that happens it won’t be the Miss St team. It would be those horrible cowbells. They are ridiculous. Can’t understand why the SEC allows them to ring those stupid things since apparently no one else in the conference is allowed artificial noisemakers.

There is no way that would happen to a fully motivated and focused Alabama team

Even when we win it sometimes seems harder than records would dictate. I always give that game the proper respect.

From just a quick glance, Mississippi State only has like 2 wins over an SEC team that finished in the top 25 in the last 20ish years (Ole Miss 2009 snuck in at 25 and Auburn 2014 finished 22). Not sure who they up and popped that was actually a better team.

Looked it up in dictionary. It said “Trap Game: see 2024 Arkansas Razorbacks vs #4 Tennessee Vols”

Hey a-hole you can't just claim titles. The weird thing is you actually have to win them. Ole Miss claims numerous things they have never done.

Hard to believe but based on final AP ranking, State’s best win of the last 25 years was a game coached by Zach Arnett. Beat Arizona in 2023 who finished 11 in the polls. You have to go all the way back to Jackie Sherrill in 2000 (beat SEC champion Florida) to find a win against a team that finished in the Top 10.
That 2000 team beat both the SEC East champion and SEC West Champion.

State has only been bad for two seasons. In 2022 we won 9 games, then our coach died. With so many returning starters Leach would have won 9 or 10 in 2023, but Arnett blew it. 2024 was always going to be bad, and having the toughest schedule didn't help.
From when A&M and Missouri joined the conference in 2012 through 2022, State was 6th in the SEC in total wins. Ahead of Auburn, Tennessee, OM, Arkansas, and others. Also more wins than Texas had over those years.
State will be back. Back to Liberty, Music City, and Gator Bowls, anyway. Hopefully we can win a trap game or two.

Mullen ain’t walking back through that door and the game has changed brother.
It’s over.

Ignorant. After Mullen, Moorhead was 2-0 vs OM and we fired him. Leach had State better than OM in 2022, then he died.
Every time OM gets good for a few years they think they are a dynasty, that they have always been great, and always will be great. Happened under Steve Sloan, Billy Brewer, Tommy Tuberville, David Cutcliffe, Ed Orgeron, Houston Nutt, Hugh Freeze, and now Lane Kiffin. Then they return to normal.
"Oh, but it's different now."
