and Tommy Stevens expected to return 100% against Kansas State. He was held out of the second half against USM as a precaution after a bruise. He was 9/10 passing with two TDs when he left the game.
Kansas State looks to be much improved under a new head coach - the guy who won 5 titles at the FCS level at North Dakota State. This will be a tough game. Line is 7.5 after opening at 8.5.

Klieman will coach circles around MH.
I cannot believe nobody else went after that man.

He's a good coach and I'm surprised it took so long for him to land in the FBS. If a guy can win five out of six titles at any level there is something about him.
State fans that think this is a gimme win because we went in and dominated them last year at Manhattan this will be a cakewalk. This will be tougher than four of our SEC games.

Freshly churned butter would coach circles around Morehard.

K-State's best returning player is now a Mississippi State Bulldog. We will beat them by 39

K-state will dominate that game

The backup Threw for 64% with 2 drops and one was a 50 yard on target pass. WR just lost it in the sun.
If Stevens can't go, the kid will be fine.

Ms St will win by 21. They are one dimensional. They rush it like 75% of the time.
Ms St's DBs will man up and the box will be loaded.
The K-State Defense won't stop Ms ST. You could win by simply running it down their throat.

I don't personally know of any State fans who think of this as a cakewalk game.
While we are far more confident and expectant as a fanbase, most of us are still far from delusional: We should- we expect- to win this game, but we can damned well lose it too.
Klieman is going places, and the train ain't stopping for good at KState. Tentatively speaking, depending on how JM produces at State, I'd love to have Klieman at State.
I think that with all of the chit games this weekend taking the wind out of a NCAACF fan's sails, said fans will be cutting themselves (and Klieman and his team) short on some entertaining football if they downplay this matchup's potential at being a helluva good game.

LULZ @ the piggy fan talking about butter and coaching.
It's a helluva thing to be "Croom" bad, but it's like reaching the gotdayumed summit of Everest to do it with one consecutive coach after another like Arkansas has.
Let us review the "Hadal Ecosystems Studies" map below in order to gain a better understanding of the 2019 SEC bottomfeeders; from there we shall discover the peer-reviewed data confirming the Arkansas pig's perennial position on the Hadal food chain as being lower than actual whale chit.
(Pro tip: Because whale chit settles on top of the abyssal plain's sediment- otherwise known as Arkansas football- logic says that being actual whale chit is a much preferred placement over that as being a pig.
There will be a pop quiz Saturday,
Thx.

Not sure why people keep disparaging Coach Croom. The Man walked into a dumpster fire in 2004 and then had to further throw gasoline on the fire.
He did quite a bit of good between 2004 and 2009 and he built the foundation that CDM already had in place that allowed him to have the success he had after he got here.
I appreciate what he did for our football program and the success we having in the present day started with him.

I don't guess it could be the 10-30 conference record and being paid millions to do it?

Not gonna argue with you there.
Unfortunately he piled garbage onto the fire until the day he left (with a shot across the bow via snidely-placed disparaging comments about State.)

Wh..what? Do you mean "good" in terms of winning games or winning the "feel good" contest? Because if it's the former, I'll refer you to the 10-30 SEC record. If you mean the latter, then agree to disagree: It was an embarrassingly miserable era that capped off the one before it. I'll tell you this much too: It absolutely sucked ARSE being in college for any amount of time during football season with that man at the helm of the football team.

What? How? Don't answer that, because the comment above is nothing more than a gobblygook bullchit media talking point that has been disproved time and time again. DAN MULLEN, the alumni & donors and the fanbase and our insistence on having a competent athletic department is responsible for rebuilding the JWS-turned-Croom era. This is a terrible, terrible take.
You do realize that State had more players arrested during the Sylvester Croom era than any other? You do realize that the idea that the team Croom was left with was in fact not chock full of gang leaders, don't you? (Again, it's a media talking point.)
You do realize that Dan Mullen came in and immediately started winning with what Croom had left in the cupboard?
You do realize the man was paid 7 digits to produce an absolutely chit product? Who footed the bill for that?

Chit...I don't.

Absolute, unadulterated bullchit. So this is the hill that you're gonna die on: That Sylvester Croom is the foundation of Mississippi State today? Again, the fanbase is responsible for accountability and righting the ship. Stop giving credit where it is not due. Who told you that? How old are you? Regarding recent memory, many of our most memorable seasons, results (e.g. going to Atlanta) and big WINS (a rarity under DM) happened before Croom came in and "saved" us.
Yeah sure, Croom is a good and exemplary man, but in no way did the conclusion of his tenure at State leave us better off. He was a terrible, stubborn head coach who insisted his way was the right way and nobody- NOBODY- had better question it. The blowback from firing the SEC's first black head football coach (and one who by 2006 was obviously not capable of the job) bogged our program down far longer than it had to. No other stubborn coach would've been allowed to field such soft arse teams and for as long.
Stop giving Croom more than what he deserves: He is a good man who is also that much more wealthy because he couldn't win. He did not instill a non-existent set of morals into our fanbase or team, either. He wallowed in the "poor lil ol mittippi tate" mentality and had rampant problems with player conduct.
He didn't do anything to "help" us any more than anybody else could have- and he didn't "help" us at all: what is so egregious about people spewing this absolute travesty of a lie that Croom "cleaned us up" is that yeah, he cleaned up a few of JWS's troublemakers, but then had even more issues with his own recruits. The word "hypocritical" comes to mind.
The only way he helped us was enabling our SEC opponents to continue to sodomize us. If that's your thing, great, but I and most other informed MSU fans didn't like it one bit.
You prove to me with factual, objective information and/or statistics that he was, in your opinion, the foundation to the MSU of today, and I'll kiss your arse.
It's nonsense and it takes away from what the fanbase has endured, has accomplished and has maintained.
This "CrOoM gOt Us HeRe" nonsense is a perpetual lie and every time somebody says it a homeless puppy dies. So stop saying it.
