Dogs may win this game, but...

[msu84grad]

the way they are looking now there is no way they could stay in the top four based on the eye test. So it just might be a case of winning but still losing.

Yep. At this point unless we at capable of much better play and play calling in the second half, it's just another egg bowl. We should be punching them in the mouth and making them like it...

We just need to worry about winning the game, period. 17 the eye test.

 

[Dawg1976]

Very true. But a win gets us in a great bowl and of course a first time ever 11-1 season. Got to figure out a way to score first though.

We are playing a top 20 team at their place.

It's not like this is Jackson State. A win against a top 20 team on the road should only improve our resume.

Blowing UM out might make them drop a lot.

Agree, hell the #1 team lost in Oxford. Auburn needed a freak injury. I'd argue that no team can win convincingly there. Any win should be good enough.

Which 4 teams other than State could beat Ole Miss in Oxford? FSU? Nope. Oregon? Nope. Bama? nope. TCU? Kidding, right?
