Tomorrow is a bigger game for us, regardless of how much emotion is surrounding the game in Oxford.

Ole Miss could lose tomorrow and still reasonably be in the College Football Playoff picture. For us, a win puts us in position for a huge 2-game stand in Starkville.,

The emotions in Oxford are going to get all the attention, but for Mississippi State, tomorrow is about what comes immediately next. Mizzou & Bama has a chance to be the biggest home stand since 2014.

Agree
I’m excited for what could happen, but being very cautious about the what also could happen and telling myself not to get overly optimistic based on two games vs not so great competition.

Mississippi State @ South Carolina is a big game because the coach that loses that game will be on the early hot seat.

LSU @ Ole Miss is a big game because the loser will struggle to make the CFP. 10-2 SEC teams will make the playoff. A 9-3 SEC can possibly make it, but it is not probable.
An Ole Miss loss tomorrow & they can only lose one more of @ Florida, @ Vandy, Missouri, @ Texas, Auburn, Georgia, @ Oklahoma, & Mississippi State. They would definitely be underdogs @ Texas & vs Georgia and might be an underdog @ Oklahoma & @ Florida.
LSU still has A & M, Kentucky, Mississippi State, @ Auburn, Alabama, Texas, @ Tennessee, & @ UPIG. LSU will probably be an underdog vs Alabama & Texas and possibly vs. A & M & @ Tennessee.

I think Ole Miss is done (and Pistol Pete) if they lose tomorrow. Just like we were done when Danny beat us in 2018. Hard to come back from that, especially at home.

Lot more losses on the schedule if they can’t win this one.

I don't have a strong feeling about win or loss tomorrow but if we are going to win I think it will be from us punching them in the mouth early having been battle tested already. They might have a marginally better roster top bottom but we've already gone on the road and whipped a solid opponent in the trenches. Do that again early and make them play from behind and we have a good shot at another solid road W tomorrow.

Tomorrow is a huge game for us. If we are good enough to win it we have decent shot at at least .500, and maybe better. I have no real feel for how it will go. We have looked good so far, but I’m not sure how good Minnesota actually is. Monroe was pitiful. Win tomorrow and I’ll change my pessimistic tone a bit.
