Baylor beating Clemson would not be a surprise so I am not sure why that even matters. Those games were seven/eight weeks ago. Not really relevant today.

I think he can be a multi use player in the NFL. A smaller version of Taysom Hill.
He could play QB, RB, FL, WR.
A savvy OC could put together a package of plays with him involved that could keep a defense off balance at certain points in a game.
I do think his size would limit his long term ability as strictly a QB in the NFL. But I think he is too good for a team not to take a chance on him.

I actually have enjoy soccer and volleyball. They are both very athletic and it gives the ladies chance to be seen. I think we have plenty of opportunities to watch football. And the talking heads can get ad nauseam as they repeat the same thing over and over during the middle of the week.

TBS had the early game (1140A Kick-off) during the 1980’s.

“And, Miss St is an afterthought. You better hope us SEC money schools don't move on what's obvious, you are deadweight and we don't need you.”
That is such a dead issue. State is not an afterthought and we are certainly not deadweight. We actually more than hold our own in the SEC. Plus this discussion was about Miami and I simply related a similar example to what happened to GT when they chose to go Independent.
So I am not quite sure why you chose to demean State here.

You would leave FL, GA, KY and SC out of that equation. Then you would have 12 SEC teams against 12 B1G teams in September.
So that would be fine. Kind of similar to the basketball challenges.

Well Georgia Tech tried that Independent thingy sixty plus years ago and they have regretted it ever since. They will never, ever be allowed back in the SEC.
Miami is an outlaw school i.e. Houston, Tulsa, Cincinnati, Memphis etc.
They will never be allowed in the SEC. Period.
Nobody likes Miami. They will do well to stay pat in the ACC. Otherwise they will be left out in the cold…pun intended.
Notre Dame is the only University that can command Independent status as they have a National following and while some don’t like it, they will always been in the mix.

Similar to Veterans Memorial Stadium in Jackson. It was once a great college football venue that hosted numerous SEC football doubleheaders back in the 1970’s-1980’s.
Lots of great memories there and also of Legion Field. Their usefulness ended around 1990. Though Bama did continue to play in BHM through the 1990’s. State moved all home games to campus starting in 1991. Ole Miss followed suit a few years later.
Football is much better on campus in the present day.

I think it will be just fine. Regular season games still matter greatly. The playoff will only enhance that.
You still have to win to make the playoff. A loss could be the difference between hosting a playoff game or going on the road. Just because more teams will get in, does not diminish the Regular Season at all. If anything it makes it more important as more teams will have opportunities to move up and make the playoff…..which means more games will be more meaningful.

I don’t think he is necessarily out for the season but I doubt he plays against LSU.

Yep. Minnesota crapping the bed against Purdue hurt us.
You will have to see how the flour sifts over the next month to find out for sure.
Arkansas’ last series was horribly run.
You have two minutes, three time-outs, Tennessee is inviting you to run the ball. On first or second down, run a draw play or some type of run play. Instead, they had three incomplete passes. And then on fourth down, you gotta go for it. Simple as that.
Kiffin’s pendulum seems to have swung overly aggressive to passively conservative. Old Kiffin says “d*mn the torpedos, full speed ahead.” New Kiffin says kick the FG or punt on 4th and 1.
Given the two outcomes, hindsight is always 20-20. Arkansas’ was more egregious but LSU’s was not much better.

Georgia won the LOS all night. It was not an asterisk win.

“Gotta love the soft Disney/ ESPn coverage on players these days. They hype up their guy, then when he shites his pants in a big game they just point to some bs injury. Never fails. Just refuse to call poor play for what it is.”
Not to mention that KT1 and several other players were sick with the flu.
No question that Bama was/is the better team but State hurt ourselves with unforced errors and penalties. Bama still wins but the game could been potentially closer.

I miss the Texas A&M from the Jackie Sherrill era. They were a fun team to watch and easy to pull for…and even farther back when Coach Bellard was there….
Oh where did it go wrong?

“Funny you say this. Last week when we played Missouri I noticed how it seemed like we played very little music.”
I think State has done a good job of keeping it balanced. The band pregame is always good. They have some of light effects and some music during time outs but I don’t think it’s egregious by any means…During the ULM game they did a cool tribute to Dolly.
So I agree with you there.

Texas A&M beat Jawja 6-0 in Athens in 1954. It was the only victory of the season for the famed Junction Boys. It really should count as three victories for A&M. And more than makes up for Georgia not never playing in College Station.

Well I enjoyed a nice cigar and drink after State beat Missouri Saturday night out on my back patio. It was very enjoyable and I am glad the Texas got to enjoy a stogie after a well earned victory.

“Who remembers State 6, Bama 3? 1980....I'm remember the bumper stickers as a kid.
Was that the game when Don Jacobs fumbled at the goal line?”
I was at the 1980 game in Jackson.
Alabama had a 28 game winning streak.
Alabama had a 26 game SEC winning streak.
Alabama had beaten State 22 straight times.
Now State came into the game 7-2 and most of the players were Bob Tyler’s recruits (many of whom went on to play in the NFL).
It was 6-3 late in the game when Bama drove down to the three yard line. DE Tyrone Keys blasted Don Jacobs causing him to fumble and the other DE Billy Jackson recovered the fumble with six seconds left. Game over? Well not yet.
On the ensuing play Alabama’s NG slapped the ball as it was being centered but fortunately State recovered the fumble.
Now I understand the Referee saw it happen and would have thrown a flag had Bama recovered but did not and State held on for the monumental win.
It was total bedlam during that last minute and the loudest I have ever heard a crowd. Jacobs whined to the officials several times late but they did not stop the clock. It was a once in a lifetime moment that I will never forget.

“ Have you seen the State offensive line?”
Because of the transfer portal every OL in the nation is a work-in-progress. That is the most difficult position group on a football team and they all take time to gel.
