I miss hearing how those 35 yard field goals drifted wide right. Can't wait!

I was excited then I saw that every person that does predictions for football said we will be the worst team in America and now I'm not.

I seriously do not understand the amount of negative outlooks I've seen on our season. It's so lazy.

I chalk it up to being in an absurdly tough conference, combined with an unexpected and forced coaching change that has a young 1st time HC running an SEC program.

Im not defending the predictions, Im just guessing at why the predictions exist.

So many people doubt the hire of ZA to replace a legend. The message of toughness and handling what we can control is the same as Coach Leach’s. We will have have to prove ourselves to the doubters.

One thing to keep in mind is the same people that are doubting ZA heavily, are the same people that said JOMO was a home run hire. It's all a crap shoot.

Partly true. But mostly just lazy, stupid people voting for these predictions. They pick us last more often than not and 75% of the time we finish higher than predicted.

Good lord, anything to get my mind off of our pitchers.

It’s like the polar opposite of Bama. Half of these experts couldn’t name 5 players on the Tide’s roster, but they’ll pick them somewhere in the Top 2-3 every year because they feel like Saban and the Alabama program have earned it.

Meanwhile, no matter how many positive things surround the MSU program, they’re just looking for a reason, any reason at all, to pick State last. This year, it’s coaching turnover, next year it’ll be the OL, then it’ll be a new QB… it goes on and on. I’ll never forget Sallee joining one of the pods back in ‘15 and saying that he wasn’t as high on State as some because there’s nothing more overrated than a star QB returning. Of all the things that absolutely aren’t overrated, that’d be one of them.

Anyway, I’m excited and I don’t know where we’ll wind up, but it won’t be last
