Buy The Hype For Mississippi State This Year

But the hype. Mississippi State has a chance to win the SEC this year. Here's why:

1. The SEC is a line of scrimmage league.

•We return our RT, RG, C, and LG on our offense line that all started every game last year. We replace our LT, Rankin, with a guy, Eiland, who started 4 games last year, and played in all 13.

•Our defensive line is STACKED. Simmons- will be a 1st round pick. Sweat- returning SEC leader in sacks. Rivers- I've heard he's 2nd best DL on our team behind Simmons. Spencer, Adams, Hoyett, Jones, and Thomas- all very good.

2. Fitz is a top 3 SEC QB

He will chase 1,000 yards rushing this year. His passing will almost certainly improve with better talent around him this year. He's focusing solely on football this year. He will most definitely be improved!

3. Other Players

• At RB, we are very good. Williams is a SEC quality running back. He is not going to blow you away, but he's very good in all areas.
Kylin Hill is absolutely explosive. Every time he touches the football you better watch out for him to take it turn it into a big play. Nick Gibson is a pretty good 3rd string RB too.

•WR will be improved by a long shot. Dear returns. Mixon has experience under his belt. Other returnees play will be improved.

• 9 starters return on offense. Veteran group being led by one of the best OC's in the country.

4. Defense Is Key

•Already discused DL. 2 All-SEC players returning up front.

•LB- Thompson is good. Gay showed out at seasons end. I really like Green. We all know about Lewis.

•Safety- McLaurin and Abram are our 2 leading tacklers from last year. Bryant is improved.

•CB is a concern. But we will see what Peters, Dantzler, Cole, etc. do this year.

• 8 starters returning on defense. We return ~ 13 of our 15 top tacklers from last year. This Defense is stacked.

5. Schedule and Coaching

• Schedule is tough as always because we're in the SEC. But we get Florida, Auburn, A&M, and Arkansas at home. Need to win our home games- I think we will. We go on the road to Kentucky- we will win. Ole Miss- payback, we will win. LSU- always tough, but we will win. At Alabama- I think the winner of this game will go to Atlanta. This year is our chance to beat Alabama- but it won't be easy.

•Moorhead has HC experience, albeit at Fordham, he knows how to handle HC duties. Our offense is converting from Spread to Spread, so it's not like a whole new process.

•Shoop is the question. But it would take a disaster to mess it up this year.
