Nothing against Vandy but Mississippi State and Kentucky used to have some of the most exciting games between us. For that reason, I wish we had gotten them as a permanent opponent but I'm satisfied with the three they gave us.

Is the AP even familiar with the word "credibility"?

It's a coin toss to me. I want the Bulldogs to win but neither team has impressed anyone offensively. Both have solid defenses. I'm going to pick State in a 13-10 win, though this one could go either way.

Well it doesn't smell like urine-soaked corndogs at David Wade Stadium. So Baton Rouge has that memorable fragrance over Starkville. I'll give LSU that selling point.

:lol:

I'd say that's about right. The only way the Rebs lose, is if they don't take GT seriously. I think Lane will have those guys ready.

Can't argue with you too much. Moorehead was heralded as some offensive genius but seemed to have only 5 basic plays and always tried to punch it up the middle when on the goal line. Nearly every team we played knew what we were going to do. His play calling sucked and he wouldn't take his head out of that stupid chart to watch what was happening on the field!
However it was his complete lack of control over the program that ultimately got him fired, despite being 2-0 against Ole Miss. We had way too many off field incidents involving players and the law, plus fights between players that resulted in injury. He acted like he didn't care, he was just there to coach on gameday.
By the way, did anyone else think he looks a lot like Rex Ryan.

Tennessee has been in the family for a long while, so I'll root for them. Would like to see the Vols make it to the playoffs this time around.

It's a thing of how some people never get out of their twenties.
As a State fan, yeah I used to really HATE Ole Miss but again, I was in my twenties and my world wasn't as full as it is now. As you move into your thirties and forties, you start meeting more people in different walks of life from schools and recognize that it's not personal, it's just a sports rivalry.
The problem comes from the superfans who NEVER grew out of their twenties and give you a snarl or get up in your face all angry when you meet them and they find out your loyalty. It's nuts! But again, I have friends from Ole Miss, Bama, Arkansas, UT and Auburn. On game day with them, it's on but the rest of the time, it's all friendly. Other folks less inclined need to grow up.

I'd say it was 2000 for the MSU Bullies. We had beaten Auburn and Bama at home and were in the lead for the West Division but then dropped a game to a late surging Arkansas team and lost to Ole Miss in Oxford.
The Indy Bowl win over aTm was exciting sure enough but it was small solace for what could have been a second SEC Championship Game appearance in three years.

Crazy endings most definitely! Two seasons ago, the Rebs won in a 52-51 thriller, and who can forget the 4 and 25 game that Arky won 53-52 in 2015. That was insane.
