Gotta send the best ever out a winner. There can be no exception.

[starkvegasdawg]

Rain is training from the stadium all the way back into FL. If nothing happens to shift that track south the whole game will be like the first half of the Mizzou game. Entire area under flood warnings so it isn't just light showers either.

[maroonmania]

What is the status of Clayborn? If we have to play the whole game with a backup center that does not bode well.

[starkvegasdawg]

Not listed on an injury report. Ryan Brown and Gus Wally are the only ones I see expected to miss.

Not good. We looked like shit in that game until the rain stopped.

[runwildjerious]

Michael Bonner ‏@MikeBBonner 11s12 seconds ago
Per MSU, Jamaal Clayborn will not play today. Justin Malone will start at center. Devon Desper at LG, Deion Calhoun at RG.

[maroonmania]

Not good. We looked like shit in that game until the rain stopped.

Really the only part of that game that we looked bad in was the monsoon during the 2nd quarter. Hopefully we won't see that volume of rain during any parts of the game today.

[runwildjerious]

Michael Bonner ‏@MikeBBonner 42s42 seconds ago
Gerri Green will get the start at LB with Beniquez Brown and Richie Brown. JT Gray started in Zach Jackson's place in the Egg Bowl.

[starkvegasdawg]

So much for Mullen saying he's fine.

[ShotgunDawg]

This is also interesting: Is Green fast enough for this?

David H Murray ‏@DawgsBiteMag 1m1 minute ago
Gerri Green will start in place of J.T. Gray at outside linebacker

Awesome....

Rainy, wet field, wet balls, & we have our backup center playing

Over under the amount of bad snaps? 3.5

[starkvegasdawg]

Charlotte is just barely in the northern edge of the rain. If it could shift south just 15-20 miles...

[mstatefan91]

We cannot lose this game. Come on Bulldogs!

[maroonmania]

Awesome....

Rainy, wet field, wet balls, & we have our backup center playing

Over under the amount of bad snaps? 3.5

Yep, nothing like losing our best lineman off a bad OL.

[Bully13]

This OL situation update gives me even more negative vibes about this game. Now all I need is one of our weather gurus to tell us the rain should continue throughout the game for me to have little to no hope of us winning.

[starkvegasdawg]

I think it's going to rain most of, if not all, game.

[I seen it dawg]

Much approval of thread title

[maroonmania]

Can we not get 2 competent SEC OL at each position? Is it THAT difficult Hevesy? I mean has Justin Malone ever played Center in his entire MSU career?

[Dawg Corps]

Quick. What radio station in central MS is airing the game? Going to have to catch the 1st half in my vehicle.

[starkvegasdawg]

Quick. What radio station in central MS is airing the game? Going to have to catch the 1st half in my vehicle.
107.9 should.

[msstate7]

Quick. What radio station in central MS is airing the game? Going to have to catch the 1st half in my vehicle.

107.9
105.9
102.3

[Dawg Corps]

Thank you both. Hail State, hail yeah.

[HancockCountyDog]

Watching the game from my couch, go dawgs.

So far the SEC is 2-0, let's make it 3-0; I think we win big.

[starkvegasdawg]

That's how you start.

[CadaverDawg]

BOOM!!!!!

[BrunswickDawg]

Calvin showing wheels!

[Statecoachingblows**]

Wow

[msstate7]

2 new starters made that play

[BrunswickDawg]

Bear showing some spark. Chippy today

[CadaverDawg]

YES SIR!

[BrunswickDawg]

Fred is $$$

[HancockCountyDog]

Great start. Ross is a stud.

[starkvegasdawg]

I like the start to the game.

[CadaverDawg]

Now keep playing pissed off Defense!

[maroonmania]

Great start! Looks like they aren't reviewing anything today. I expected them to review the INT and the TD and they didn't review either.

[msstate7]

Great start. Ross is a stud.

Bear made that play... Excellent block

[runwildjerious]

Great block by Bear to spring Ross.

[Dawg61]

ODRoss is a stud!!!

[runwildjerious]

Great start! Looks like they aren't reviewing anything today. I expected them to review the INT and the TD and they didn't review either.

Agreed. Where are the officials from?

[msstate7]

Great start! Looks like they aren't reviewing anything today. I expected them to review the INT and the TD and they didn't review either.

Sec officials**

[Statecoachingblows**]

I'm feeling a little better. More so because we show signs of life than the good start, good start doesn't hurt either.

[Dawg61]

Please please please let Bear & Ross return next year

[scottycameron]

I'd like to see this open up into a record setting blowout. Don't let up, stand on the gas for 4 quarters!

[msstate7]

Please please please let Bear & Ross return next year

Add aj to the other returnees and fitz/Staley would have some very good receivers

[Statecoachingblows**]

Amazing what happens when you blitz from NEAR the los

[Dawg61]

Calvin is killing it so far

[msstate7]

Calvin bringing the pressure

[CadaverDawg]

We're playing a poor man's Dak/Dan offense

[maroonmania]

Well, getting some early body blows on Brissett.

[BrunswickDawg]

Calvin is killing it so far
Calvin has had a good season that has been overlooked.

[starkvegasdawg]

Liking the pressure.

[CadaverDawg]

Let's get another score

[runwildjerious]

Holy crap what a catch.

[CadaverDawg]

Gray is going to be so damn good

[msstate7]

Donald gray is gonna be really good next season.

[Dawg61]

What a throw by Dak

[CadaverDawg]

Damn.

[maroonmania]

Looked like he had Morrow over the middle if he had thrown it.

[HancockCountyDog]

That's on Dak, not the OL, they gave great protection there.

[starkvegasdawg]

Special teams even showed up.

[BrunswickDawg]

Great play there Smokey

[runwildjerious]

Smokey with the nice punt coverage.

[Dawg61]

Nice punt he Cooked up

[CadaverDawg]

Let's get a safety or cause another turnover, D

[runwildjerious]

That's on Dak, not the OL, they gave great protection there.

Agreed, he has to feel the pocket collapsing and hit the hole that was there. However, I do like that he is looking to make a play deep downfield today.

[DudyDawg]

Graham caught a punt!!

[CadaverDawg]

Graham caught a punt!!

Well played, sir

[I seen it dawg]

****

[ckDOG]

Agreed, he has to feel the pocket collapsing and hit the hole that was there. However, I do like that he is looking to make a play deep downfield today.

From that down distance and yardage, I like 5 wide dak directly up the gut.

[Dawg61]

That was hawk tackling finally

[runwildjerious]

We take the worst angle's on defense.

[CadaverDawg]

Dammit, we cannot allow him to escape like that. Good grief

[Dawg61]

That was hawk tackling finally

Followed up by hawk misstackling

[msstate7]

Richie brown missed tackle

[HancockCountyDog]

I can tell already that brisett is going to piss me off.

[maroonmania]

Man, had a chance for really great field position but can't get the stop.

[msstate7]

We still aren't good defensively

[CadaverDawg]

Son of a bitch. We're putting together a classic first half defensive series here. Beating ourselves

[Dawg61]

Finally put him on the ground!

[msstate7]

Benny brown going pro lol

[CadaverDawg]

Who teaches that shoulder tackle bullshit Benny just did? Awful

[runwildjerious]

Holy Crap what a play Bryant!

[Dawg61]

OMFG THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!

[CadaverDawg]

Wow!!! Brandon Bryant Highlight reel!!!

[Statecoachingblows**]

Hellacious grab!

[maroonmania]

Terrific catch by Bryant!

[msstate7]

Very nice to have a playmaking safety

[runwildjerious]

Bryant is going to be really good. That was beautiful.

[CadaverDawg]

That was beautiful

[CadaverDawg]

We have some great young talent

[I seen it dawg]

We've got one safety that's for damn sure.

[msstate7]

Who teaches that shoulder tackle bullshit Benny just did? Awful

I don't think anyone teaches to just bump... He didn't wrap up. That's all brown

[Dawg61]

Very nice to have a playmaking safety

Now if we can just get a safeties coach that can develop him

[HancockCountyDog]

Mclaurin or peters need to add 10-15 lbs, because Bryant is going to be playing safety a while, what a huge play , that saved a TD. There was a certain corner that was burned.

[runwildjerious]

Go for the throat here.

[TopWaterDog]

Crazy interception. My drinking game rules have me "3rd quarter drunk" already. Also 17 that Luke Bryan song

[CadaverDawg]

Gotta capitalize on the pick

[runwildjerious]

Bear!

[CadaverDawg]

YES!!!!!

[sandwolf]

There we go!

[Statecoachingblows**]

Boom and boom nice

[runwildjerious]

BEAR!!!!

[BrunswickDawg]

Wow - Pack's pass coverage is shit.

[Dawg61]

Wow that was easier than a blow job at prom

[runwildjerious]

Crazy interception. My drinking game rules have me "3rd quarter drunk" already. Also 17 that Luke Bryan song

Ultimate mood killer...crazy play by Bryant then Luke Bryan. ESPN sucks sometimes.

[Bothrops]

Awesome job from everybody so far.

[HancockCountyDog]

Bear doing Bear things.

[Dawg61]

Why can't Dan run this same NASCAR tempo vs Bama?

[runwildjerious]

Why can't Dan run this same NASCAR tempo vs Bama?

Because we need to run Holloway up the middle?

[msstate7]

I would love to let fitz have the whole 4th quarter

[BrunswickDawg]

Damn corner blitz!

[starkvegasdawg]

How do you leave a guy that open?

[runwildjerious]

I hate the corner blitz.

[CadaverDawg]

Shit. If we could tackle on the first point of contact

[msstate7]

Who was supposed to cover that guy?

[Dawg61]

Ultimate mood killer...crazy play by Bryant then Luke Bryan. ESPN sucks sometimes.

Disney likes to stereotype the South with country music. It's fine to do that cause it's white people. They should play mariachi music during the Alamo Bowl.

[CadaverDawg]

Our linebackers react very slowly to cuts

[HancockCountyDog]

We aren't losing this game. We can score 50 if Dan keeps chucking it.

[BrunswickDawg]

Who was supposed to cover that guy?

Cleveland - who was damn blitzing...

[CadaverDawg]

Come on, D, let's get a 4th down stop right here

[maroonmania]

Who was supposed to cover that guy?

Apparently the guy that blitzed.

[runwildjerious]

Need to get a big stop here.

[CadaverDawg]

Cleveland - who was damn blitzing...

So he'd have been open either way?**

[DudyDawg]

Why not bring in an extra linebacker or lineman there.

[CadaverDawg]

JT Gray...missed tackle.

[msstate7]

Our tacking is horrible...

Chris jones got pushed badly on 4th down

[maroonmania]

Our defense still looks like crap minus the 2 interception plays. Luckily theirs looks even worse.

[CadaverDawg]

Our LB's NEVER make the tackle on the first hit. It always takes us 2 or 3 guys to make a tackle. I just don't get it

[CadaverDawg]

Jay Gray just had a clear shot, & Brissett didn't even juke & Gray whiffed. How?

[ckDOG]

Wrap up and drive your legs dammit!!!! At least act like you want to make the tackle

[I seen it dawg]

We tackle like dogshit

[msstate7]

Our LB's NEVER make the tackle on the first hit. It always takes us 2 or 3 guys to make a tackle. I just don't get it

Richie doesn't have the stopping power of bmac. Green and Leo might, but Richie can't stop a guy in his tracks

[maroonmania]

Jay Gray just had a clear shot, & Brissett didn't even juke & Gray whiffed. How?

Apparently the rain has messed up Gray's vision.

[msstate7]

Jay Gray just had a clear shot, & Brissett didn't even juke & Gray whiffed. How?

Hoping it's the field

[Statecoachingblows**]

We tackle like dogshit

Should not talk bad about dogshit like that

[CadaverDawg]

Stop Brissett on the ground...we win. Can we?

[ckDOG]

Richie doesn't have the stopping power of bmac. Green and Leo might, but Richie can't stop a guy in his tracks

Lol. Keep going!

[CadaverDawg]

Yea Richie stuffed that one. We really need a stop here. Don't let em take momentum back

[maroonmania]

Man, this drive has been going forever it seems.

[runwildjerious]

Looks like he fell forward for it. Crap. And he got a great spot.

[CadaverDawg]

Damn

[CadaverDawg]

They'll never overturn it

[ckDOG]

CLEARLY short

[runwildjerious]

That is NOT a first down.

[msstate7]

Lol. Keep going!

He doesn't... Richie is good, but he can't hit players in the open field one-on-one and drop em without the player falling forward. Bmac was very good at, but he was bigger

[DawgInMemphis]

Don't think he got there.

[maroonmania]

I don't think he go it but they won't overturn it.

[CadaverDawg]

I don't think he go it but they won't overturn it.

This

[Statecoachingblows**]

Needed 4 stories got 15ft*** our ball

[CadaverDawg]

YES!!!

[runwildjerious]

Well Hail yeah!

[starkvegasdawg]

I love pac 12 refs.

[BrunswickDawg]

HELL YEAH! Thank you Pac-12!

[CadaverDawg]

A REAL ref crew!

[maroonmania]

I don't think he go it but they won't overturn it.

Wow, color me shocked they made the overturn.

[CadaverDawg]

HUGE stop

[CadaverDawg]

Come on Offense...defense needs a breather

[maroonmania]

A REAL ref crew!

Exactly, an SEC crew would have never made that call if we were the recipient of it.

[starkvegasdawg]

Wish Dak had run that.

[msstate7]

I wish dak would tuck and run

[CadaverDawg]

Nice playcall Dan

[starkvegasdawg]

Inventive play calling!

[runwildjerious]

Great fake by Dakota.

[ScoobaDawg]

Nice pass to Malik

[CadaverDawg]

Dear looks skinnier

[ckDOG]

He doesn't... Richie is good, but he can't hit players in the open field one-on-one and drop em without the player falling forward. Bmac was very good at, but he was bigger

Just picking at you bc Richie stood up a guy two ticks after you posted

[msstate7]

1st drive -- Ross
2nd drive -- gray
3rd drive -- bear
4th drive -- dear so far

Showcasing a lot of receivers... Aj gotta like it

[maroonmania]

Can we have Pac 12 officials for all our games?

[CadaverDawg]

Desper is barely hanging on...getting diminated

[BrunswickDawg]

Fred!!!

[CadaverDawg]

YES!!!!

[ScoobaDawg]

WHERE THE HELL did this playcalling come from????

LOVE IT

[runwildjerious]

FRED ROSS. Some great blocking on that as well.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Bang! Opening it up now

[CadaverDawg]

Play calling is beautiful!!

[msstate7]

Just picking at you bc Richie stood up a guy two ticks after you posted

I really like Richie... Just saying he doesn't hit like a load of bricks. He's effective nevertheless

[starkvegasdawg]

Dear Dan,

Call every game like you are this one.

Yours truly,
Starkvegasdawg

[ScoobaDawg]

Toooiuhcdddwooooonnn SPPPEDDDDYYY ROSSS on the revese

[CadaverDawg]

Morrow with a great block

[Statecoachingblows**]

Helluva block down field

[Bothrops]

Boner

[CadaverDawg]

Pour it on, Bullies!! Step on the throat!

[runwildjerious]

Jenkins was the one with that block.

[HancockCountyDog]

Ross is a stud. Have I mentioned that?

[Dawg61]

ODRoss is the man!!

[BrunswickDawg]

Pour it on, Bullies!! Step on the throat!

1 more before halftime would be nice

[TopWaterDog]

Whoop whoop. Some guys get to caught up on the SEC hype and trying to win a natty (which I would love) but damn I'll take a 9 win season and a dominating bowl victory every year!

[msstate7]

Ross is a stud. Have I mentioned that?

He needs to slow down now... Don't need him or bear showing out too much today

[runwildjerious]

The pocket just collapsed!

[sandwolf]

WTF was that?

[starkvegasdawg]

Dammit.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Dammit

[runwildjerious]

What the heck?

[Liverpooldawg]

That one is on Diaz

[BrunswickDawg]

God damn blitz

[msstate7]

Coman had the angle and couldn't catch him. Peters and Bryant please

[ScoobaDawg]

A Defensive end.//
just burned us for an 82 yard td passs...
\
wtf

[HancockCountyDog]

Can't believe our safeties could t catch up with him ****

Just means more passing yards for Dak.

[Dawgface]

Wtf was that?

[msstate7]

Richie brown?

[CadaverDawg]

Great angle, Kivon**

[maroonmania]

Apparently a tenet of Manny's defense is to NEVER cover a TE.

[ScoobaDawg]

Coman had the angle and couldn't catch him. Peters and Bryant please

Our defensive backfield... can't catch a converted defensive end.... what a joke

[PendingTransaction]

It was Riche getting out of position

[Liverpooldawg]

That one is on Diaz

On replay not all of it was. We had a blown coverage as well.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Forgot to laminate the play cards from the last drive, must have gotten wet

[CadaverDawg]

Shit. Back to the butt pucker offense. Dan is panicking

[ScoobaDawg]

Dak up the middle... with Hollway as his lead.... yeaaa

[starkvegasdawg]

Did not need to go threw and out. Glad we got that.

[ScoobaDawg]

well at least Dak got that 3rd down... big shot though

[msstate7]

Dak fumbling problem lately

[ScoobaDawg]

well this series looks like shit...

[starkvegasdawg]

Need 20 yards and a run?

[Johnson85]

Dak up the middle... with Hollway as his lead.... yeaaa

I know bowls the upper classmen deserve to play in bowls, but I was hoping we'd see Aeres Williams some more this game.

[CadaverDawg]

What the **** is that play call on 1st & 20? Damn it, Dan. Don't panic

[msstate7]

A score and we freak out on offensive play calling

[BrunswickDawg]

Why the hell are we trying rtgdfb? Throw it Dan

[HancockCountyDog]

I swear to God, I don't want to see another running play until we are up 30.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Bailed out

[ScoobaDawg]

thanks for the freebie Nc State

[cheewgumm]

This is the scratch your head version of Mullen. What are we do on offense?

[maroonmania]

Boy, NC State let us off the hook with that stupid late hit.

[HancockCountyDog]

Thank god for the idiot DE.

[ScoobaDawg]

Holloway up the gut and tripped by a snail

[msstate7]

Thank god for the idiot DE.

Hope they don't move him to te**

[CadaverDawg]

I swear, Dan loses his ability to coach when the slightest pressure is applied

[BrunswickDawg]

Damn

[starkvegasdawg]

Dak...

[maroonmania]

What the heck Dak???

[ScoobaDawg]

Dak starred him down...INT.

[CadaverDawg]

What the hell? We cannot stand success...gotta shit ourselves every time we get a lead

[msstate7]

Dak turned it over twice on that drive, but they only got the last one

[ScoobaDawg]

Put the ball HIGH for Bear there.... hes a foot taller...goodness

[starkvegasdawg]

Can't let them score here. Complete momentum change.

[Liverpooldawg]

Never should have thrown that. Terrible decision. It looks like the wheels are trying to come off. We have to have a stop here. Diaz getting cute with the blitz turned the momentum totally around.

[I seen it dawg]

Country club mentally soft *****fied bullshit. Stay on the gas Mullen you ****tard.

[msstate7]

Can't let them score here. Complete momentum change.

They're going to the te. If their qb can get him the ball, they'll score.

[I seen it dawg]

Bear let the guy undercut it. Lazy route

[maroonmania]

What the hell? We cannot stand success...gotta shit ourselves every time we get a lead

Yep, nothing is ever easy with an MSU football team.

[CadaverDawg]

Not trying to start a Mullen debate...but when one TD that cuts your lead to 14 causes you to panic and tense up....that's a coaching problem

[Dawgface]

Letting them back pin the game. Oh well....

[CadaverDawg]

Cleveland gets run over by a Holloway sized back

[starkvegasdawg]

17 me.

[CadaverDawg]

Unreal. From heroes to zeroes in 5 minutes. What a joke

[HancockCountyDog]

Welp, we've got a ballgame.

[ScoobaDawg]

annnnnnd another long run..... td wolfpack.

Don't let this slip away....

[BrunswickDawg]

Shit shit shit

[Johnson85]

Not trying to start a Mullen debate...but when one TD that cuts your lead to 14 causes you to panic and tense up....that's a coaching problem

Mullen is what Miles used to be. He can get overly excited and take big risks, but his tendency is to shell up and get conservative. Not a terrible approach when you're good on D and have a good run game. For our current team, we'd be better off going wide open. Getting conservative will just put us in 3rd and longs where bad things can happen.

ETA: and not only tense up with a 14 point lead, but tense up with a 14 pt lead against a team we're better than. Play loose and run a lot of plays and odds are it will work out for the most talented team in the end.

[Bothrops]

Well here we go..

[maroonmania]

Sometimes I hate MSU football.
