[TheRef]

With two hours until kickoff on ESPN, it's time to start up the game thread. I expect a packed house tonight.

Official kickoff forecast: 83 ?F, partly sunny, winds from the ESE below 5 MPH. Winds will die as the game progresses.

Corey Thomas and Gabe Myles out

Huge loss in the slot. Who takes his place?

[Commercecomet24]

We are gonna run a throwback to Fitz for a td tonight. Haven't run that play since Dak left. It's coming tonight.

[ShotgunDawg]

Huge loss in the slot. Who takes his place?

I like Gabe but I doubt he's the difference in the game.

Jesse Jackson will start

Hey ref, you left off:

100% chance of humidity and swamp ass

[Commercecomet24]

With Gabe out, who can throw it?

Kylin. It really doesn't matter if it works right should be wide open. If not just run it.

[TheRef]

Hey ref, you left off:

100% chance of humidity and swamp ass

Yeahhh...dewpoint over 70 will do that for ya. Gonna be muggy as a mfer

[TheRef]

LSU DL Rashard Lawrence is on the field warming up with the rest of the DL with no boot.

[msstate7]

Cory Thomas is a bigger loss than Myles. Crap

[TheRef]

This game is gonna be fun. Both teams getting chippy at midfield pregame. Had to be separated on the field. Words were exchanged.

[Commercecomet24]

This game is gonna be fun. Both teams getting chippy at midfield pregame. Had to be separated on the field. Words were exchanged.

I like it! We ain't taking crap from those turds. Hit em in the mouth!

[TheRef]

The two main players involved in the altercation? Jeffery Simmons and Arden Key

[Drugdog]

This game is gonna be fun. Both teams getting chippy at midfield pregame. Had to be separated on the field. Words were exchanged.

Oh Yeah. Bring it on..

[CadaverDawg]

Thomas is a killer loss for us against that ground game.

[TheRef]

Speaking of Cory Thomas, his replacements on the depth chart are listed as Tre Brown and Grant Harris

[CadaverDawg]

Speaking of Cory Thomas, his replacements on the depth chart are listed as Tre Brown and Grant Harris

Both have played well, but a definite drop off from Cory. Terrible timing with Guice in town and Chubb, Michel, & Pettway the next 2 weeks. Damn

[ShotgunDawg]

What's wrong with #34?

A leg

[ShotgunDawg]

Both have played well, but a definite drop off from Cory. Terrible timing with Guice in town and Chubb, Michel, & Pettway the next 2 weeks. Damn

I fear the turf at La Tech did a number on us.

[TheRef]

T-minus 1 hour until we on

[ShotgunDawg]

Feels like Gabe Myles has been hurt for over half his career

[starkvegasdawg]

Key and Simmons pregame scuffle. I like the attitude from our guys.

[Pollodawg]

Ain't nobody skeered.

[msstate7]

Key and Simmons pregame scuffle. I like the attitude from our guys.

Key mess around and have another shoulder issue fooling with Simmons

[Treemydawg]

Key and Simmons pregame scuffle. I like the attitude from our guys.

Simmons about to break one off in that tiger ass.

[BrunswickDawg]

Both have played well, but a definite drop off from Cory. Terrible timing with Guice in town and Chubb, Michel, & Pettway the next 2 weeks. Damn

Guice has been held in check by D's already, Michel is already banged up, Chubb is due for an injury, and Pettway is being held in check by damn Mercer right now. Our D can handle any of those backs

Guys Simmons is gonna go off in this game. He ready

[ShotgunDawg]

Reminder that LSU returned 2,500 of their 5,000 allotment. What a pathetic fan base

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DJ4VbviWkAA7kKP.jpg

[JoseBrown]

Yea, you sob I woulda sat in them..*** Seriously, when did the time get here that State folks would rather scalp their unused tickets to other State folks? For health reasons I can't afford or use most of the time Season tickets so I had to stop buying them a few years back. But anytime I had tickets that were going unused I always gave them to a State fan. I wasn't trying to get my BDC donation and seat costs back. I was just glad to have another Bulldog sitting in them.

I have bought some since then for games I can make, but I still have friends that will give me any of their unused tix, I just see Tix every game advertised on the message boards for State folks at elevated prices. Maybe because I always bought a large amount for customers it didn't bother me.

[Dawgface]

So is our game on any other channel due to ND game going long?

[ShotgunDawg]

I think ESPN will just switch over. The ND game is almost over

[TheRef]

So is our game on any other channel due to ND game going long?

We are LIVE on ESPN now

[TheRef]

Joe Tessitore on the call so you know it'll get rowdy.

[TheRef]

Punt and fair catch from Donald Gray at the 20.

1st and 10 from the MSU 20 for the Bulldogs.

[Irondawg]

I'm not sure it was a bad call. He's running a route but is he adjusting his route so he runs right into the db. Hard to tell

[JoseBrown]

We gotta be aware of those pick routes now on D. C'mon Nicky Fitz get off to a good start!

[msstate7]

I'm not sure it was a bad call. He's running a route but is he adjusting his route so he runs right into the db. Hard to tell

I'm extremely biased and say bad call. We deserve a break though

[BrunswickDawg]

I'm extremely biased and say bad call. We deserve a break though

Exactly

[Interpolation_Dawg_EX]

How could we not see what was coming when no.7 motioned to the TE's hip?

Offensive Pass Interference on Farrod Green.

2nd and 21.

[TheRef]

Williams run up the gut for about 4. 3rd and 16.

[Irondawg]

Why abandon the run? They hadn't stopped it

[msstate7]

Don't do anything stupid. Field position

[JoseBrown]

That pick was way more obvious than LSU's. Dang!

[TheRef]

Pass over the middle is incomplete due to pressure from the edge. 4th down from around the MSU 49.

[msstate7]

Great series. Finish it with a good punt

[Irondawg]

They confused Reese on that rush

[Pollodawg]

Leaping a punt shield. What the 17....

[JoseBrown]

I'm ready for the "Freak of the Week" to get a chance to return one of these punts.

[Commercecomet24]

Defense playing with swag and attitude!

[JoseBrown]

Great defense

You can say that again! Last year we'd be down 2 or 3 TD's already. I'm glad Dan got Grantham to come down here. Last year was a huge disservice to our players!

[msstate7]

Leaping a punt shield. What the 17....

It's a rule. Either MM was dumb or our coaches didn't teach the rule. That was a pretty big penalty

[Liverpooldawg]

Leaping a punt shield. What the 17....

So basically they have tried to outlaw blocking a punt? We just need to convert to flag football. He was trying to block the punt and the "punt shield" undercut him, yet he gets 15 yards.

[TheRef]

Run up the middle for a gain of about 5. 2nd and 5

[TheRef]

Pass to the right and the MSU 24 yard line. 1st down

[TheRef]

We are averaging 8.6 a carry and nick has plenty of time to throw.

[Tbonewannabe]

Holy crap, Aeris said no thank you, I'll take another hole

That play didn't happen with Holloway or Shump. We finally got our normal great SEC back that we were used to.

[msstate7]

This is a huge drive. No td... whatever happens, no td. Bring it, dawgs

[Coach007]

Man that OL sucks don't it!



:cool:

[BrunswickDawg]

Run by Fitz up the middle. LEAP AND TOUCHDOWN!!!!!!!!!!

That's a GA boy for you - we STILL all want to dive over a pile like Herschel Walker!

Crap. They responded well, now we need to do the same thing!

[msstate7]

Cooke's garbage kick set it up. That was pure dominance.

[Mjoelner34]

Somebody screwed up the alignment big time on the TD. We didn't have a sole line up outside the right tackle. Etling could have run that one in.

[msstate7]

Bad sign. I'm not sure I could push my 11 year old nephew around more than that

[Dawgology]

Yeah. Depth on D usually gets us against LSU and Bama. Such is life.

[Irondawg]

Yep they ran it right down our throats that time

[IMissJack]

Was that the 1Bs?

[msbulldog]

Cooke deserves a kick in the butt. What a terrible kick

C'mon 7 that's the 1st 1 this year not out of the back of the endzone!

[Saltydog]

Well he sure picked the worse time

[TheRef]

Kick is away and kneeled for a touchback.

1st and 10 from the MSU 25.

[Westdawg]

They had two OTs to that left side on that TD run. Just didn't have numbers on that site de to counter it.

[MagicDawg]

God we need a stop on this next drive.

[Coach007]

That should have been a pump fake... td im the middle..

[TheRef]

LSU fans are bitching about penalties. I bathe in their salty tears.

[Commercecomet24]

[Saltydog]

DB's better stay disciplined these last 5 minutes of this half because they're going to take shots.

[msstate7]

We need a stop a score before end of half and we get ball first in second half. Lol lot to ask I know

Is it too much to ask to get a 3 and out and a td to go up 17-7 at half?

[TheRef]

LSU run up the right side for a loss of 2.

Flag down on the play. Personal foul - Chop Block. Repeat 1st down.
