It'll be nice having Josh Robinson get most of the work load


Never understood why he didn't get more touches. He looked a lot more explosive than Perkins and was much more difficult to bring down. Does he have fumbling problems or have nagging injuries that kept him from seeing the field more?

He had issues with learning the playbook his FR year, so he was used in limited situations. Last year, who knows? Our OC just had this love thing going with Perkins and used him whether it made sense or not. Robinson would go in, run for 8 yards, and then head to the bench.

Don't laugh too hard at South Alabama. There will be a good crowd for that one in Mobile. They went to Tennessee last year and were 5 yards from beating them. Play your B game and let them play lights out and it could get competitive.

The OSU game was pretty much a Perkins-Russell abortion.

I see 7 - 5 for the SECW Dawgs

I think 8 - 4 is the ceiling and 5 - 7 is the floor

A big upset of LSU or Ole Miss could get Moo State to 9 - 3; but I don't think it happens

Perkins was greaqt when paired in the slot with Relf and Ballard. Throw him in the backfield with Russell and disaster strikes..

Russell was no threat to run, so the read-option was useless. That works OK if your back is Anthony Dixon, but if your back weighs 50 lbs less than Dixon, you might was to rethink that strategy.

The OC learned this as the season went on I felt like, but by then Russell was hurt, then Dak etc.. Happened real fast.

One would think with this behind us, an improved D that was already solid as frick, better looking receivers, we have no choice but to be more than marginally better than 2013..

I could see State losing a game to UK, Vandy, or Arkie. Each of those 3 are improving and probably look at the State game as a winnable game. I think State goes anywhere from 6-6 to 7-5. I also would not be surprised with them winning 9 if they can keep the Dak Attack healthy. Really just an unpredictable team. They looked horrible at times and amazing at times last season.

There are about 5-7 SEC teams that fit into this category.

Look at what Auburn and Arky did this year. Judging from all the sailing in the 2013 offseason one would've expected Arky to be bowling last year.

Not sure where you are getting Vandy improving. They will be a good bit worse next year.

I bet on ya'll to cover like 8 point spreads against Kentucky and Bowling Green last season. So the horrible at times really stuck out to me then ya'll turn around and play lights out against Bama and Ole Miss (Defensively anyway). I'm just saying ya'll is unpredictable.

That was mostly directed at UK and Arkie. Vandy is more of a team you can never sleep on because they will bite your Johnson off when you least expect it. I never feel good about playing Vandy anymore which is kind of sad.

LOL @ Aggy thinking they can't be beaten by a lowly MSU squad.

Also, just when I think Rebman601 can't get anymore retarded

No Sir I felt like it was trap game. I remember thinking why the frick is the spread only 3 with Dak not even playing. I've come to realize that Vegas is usually pretty spot on
