Plumlee is going to curb stomp us by himself.

I have no idea why people are predicting us to win the Egg Bowl. They have looked better than us against every common opponent.

Easy to see how this is going to play out. Win next week and get whacked by OM in Egg. And retain JoMo for another dismal year.

That just means State will win now. I have just come to expect the unexpected in the Egg Bowl.

This is about as true as it gets.

My worry about the Egg Bowl is that we are going to have to score a lot of points to win it. I would think that's possible, except for the fact that I've seen our offense play this year.

Blows my mind they are running our Dan Mullen offense. They look like we did under Mullen. We are trying to be like they were. Except jo mo don’t have the wide receiver recruits nor linemen nor qb to make it work. Makes no sense why we went away from an offensive style that worked well for us.

And nothing will motivate OM quite like knowing they can keep us from getting to a bowl.

This. Home game with all players playing. I’ll be damned if I know for sure. I do know you have to key in on JRP and Ealy running and if they beat you in the air so be it.

If ole miss doesn’t run that counter the entire game with plumlee, Luke should be fired immediately. They would beat us by 20 if they do.

I know it’s been said, but this OM team reminds me a lot of the 2009 State squad. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I could see Luke getting an 8-9 win season out of this team in a couple years.

Either way I’m betting this will be the least attended EB in many years. And, yes, I have season tickets and have been to every home game this year, including staying the entire time today. Not sure I’ll be making Abilene game next week, though.

We have no one that can match the emotion and attitude Matt Luke has these guys playing with.

we do, but unfortunately, Erroll can only churn those chubby legs so fast. I guess it’s not his fault his is 30 lbs overweight.

Just mix it into an option offense that would make Paul Johnson smile and it would be ugly.

I'd say the Egg Bowl is 50/50 toss up this year. There is no outcome that would suprise. State kicks Ole Miss's ***...not a surprise. Ole Miss kills us.....not a surprise. Incredibly close game...could definitely happen. I think this is the year where our downward trajectory and their upward trajectory will meet at the same level and make for an entertaining game.

I watched most of the LSU game last night. Plumlee is fast and good. It'll be a high scoring game, at least on one side of the ball.
