Base on the Cock boards, the common theme is simply "hey, they are just Miss State, we should beat them easy". Hopefully K1 and company can pound them dry and get the bus back to Starkville in one piece.

If I'm LSU, I run vanilla offense. Just hold the ball, eat the clock and rely on your defense until the whiskey and the hatred begin to wear off. As long as they don't hand OM the game early, I think they will win.

If I'm State, we need to stop the run and contain Sellers. Beg him to beat you with his arm. I think we can cover well enough that as long as he doesn't run wild, we will be in it.

I'm always prepared for the worst as an MSU fan. I've seen us lose any way you can think of. Last week was a pleasant surprise. It's really tough to win on the road, but I think MSU does have a chance to win. Can't have penalties and turnovers and need the D to show up. These are the games where if everyone else can just play a clean game, our skill players can make the plays for us to win.
Last week reminded me of a few other game where we got off to a large lead - LSU & Florida a few years ago come to mind. Last year's Texas and Arizona State games as well. Then we took our collective foot off the gas. Can't do that tomorrow, if it turns out that way.

One of my favorite sports message board constants is some poster legit mad that the board lost the game by not being focused, or serious enough, etc. it usually pops up as a casual pregame warning that “we” aren’t taking the opponent seriously enough and if we lose you will get a follow up melt post-game. I don’t know that we have “that guy” on SPS rn but we have before.
Like the lucky shirt, seat, etc. Nothing we do on game day or game week impacts the game. If you attend you can obviously help impact the game with noise but shirts, seats, etc. Is like believing in psychics or horoscopes. And I've been guilty many times.

I really wished this segment of our fan base would stop being so negative.

I guarantee most of us will if we continue see improvement as the level of competition ratchets up.

I have a lot of optimism, but the results need to start happening against Top 30 caliber teams if we’re going to even climb back to a mid tier SEC program.

I’m hopeful and optimistic, but that’s all that has been earned at this point.

agree, except for when I miss the first part of game, turn it on and we are up big. If I continue watching we will lose and if I turn if back off we will win.

Deep down, you know how this goes. The Dicks and Cocks win. Abandon all hope.
I'm not gonna bet against my own team but I will say this, I think only one MS school will win. I'm not saying that's us or them but we're not both gonna win tomorrow. This is perfectly fine by me as long as we're the team that wins.

I am too battered to have confidence. I think k1 could come out like a deer in headlights. Hope I’m wrong, but that’s a tough place to play. OM has had a horseshoe up its *** for a decade now. Hard to see that changing

It’s not stupid if it works!

Is there anything in our history that tells us that we won't shat the bed just like many times before when high stakes are on the table. I want to believe but between the injun spirits and our lot in life to suffer, hope is fading fast. Sorry. Maybe Lebby can pull the rabbit out of the hat, we'll see.

Welp, from what I’ve seen so far there’s never been a QB anything like this one in MSU history.

So I’m gonna let this play out.
