Barely beating bad teams is never weighted with barely losing to good teams.

If we are overrated relative most of our preseason rankings, then we are going to miss a bowl game.

Which is more likely, that ole miss goes 7-5 or 6-6 and finishes outside the top 25 and msu goes 8-4 or 9-3 and finishes in the top 25 (if OM is overrated and we are underrated) or that ole miss wins 10+ games and we win 6 or less (if OM is underrated and we are overrated). I know which is the far more likely outcome.

This^ Good grief. Underrated??? Please

ole miss is 2-14 on the road in the SEC the last four seasons. They seem like a legit program.***

Lucky they can't win the egg by out talking us. There's maybe a prize they can get for that. A certificate or something.

I'm sure we're running out of room on where to put articles like this.

As the downtrodden MSU fan I say hell no, but the eager kid inside me who longs for a championship, I say HELL YES!

I have no problem with people being skeptical after what we did in big games '11, '12, and '13. But if you're skeptical of MSU, you have to be pretty down on a UM team that lost us last year. Even playing on the road, not being able to score an offensive TD when the other team is having to rely on a third string, true freshman qb is pretty bad.
