Maybe because if State fans say LSU was down, it makes us look even worse since we got ****ing clobbered by them in our own stadium.

We need to focus on taking care of business Thursday night. Do that, and we are in good shape to salvage the season. Not saying we will, but its in our hands to do so. We have no gimmies left, but this is SEC football and CDM and team need to step up and win ball games to be at least .500 on the year.

Now, he has to make up for the Auburn choke by beating SC or A&M, plus win at Ark and against Ole miss. That's the only way he can make me feel any better.

And to try and make people think that we are sitting exactly where those other 4-3 teams are, is misleading to say the least.

At the end of the day, 4-3 = 4-3

I won't....but I also won't say they were down, because since we shit our pants in the 4th quarter and lost by 30 to them, it would make my team look even worse to say we got skull drug by a team that was "down"

I've got confidence that these games dak isn't finishing right now that he'll finish soon. He's gaining experience and I believe he's use it to finish either USCe, aTm, or bama. An upset is coming

When LSU loses to Alabama and A&M, will Saturday still count as a big win for Ole Miss?

Not in my opinion, but I respect yours.

When we have Bama, A&M, SC, OM, and Ark....and others have 3 gimmes and 2 toss ups...I can't call that 4-3=4-3

Not in my opinion. That would give them 4 SEC losses. It would be a good win, but nothing special anymore.

But it would also be an embarrassing 30 point loss for us, since it would prove that LSU was not that good.

Thank you. It's not close.

We got LSU's best game and went blow for blow for 3 quarters... Mettenberger couldn't screw up if he tried... Our boys played great, but we have to learn how to overcome adversity when one thing doesn't go our way. We let it snowball out of control in that one.

Not saying I disrespect your opinion at all. To a bowl selection committee, 4-3 = 4-3

Last year we lost the Egg Bowl, but 8-4 > 6-6 , so we went to the Gator Bowl, they went to Birmingham.

At the end of the day, it's all up to Mullen and the team. We can finish strong, or we can fail.

Like in 98? When we got blown out by a 3-8 LSU team? Yeah. I remember all the bears throwing that at us all the way to Atlanta.

Since Jackie, LSU plays well against us. They play poorly vs ole miss. Again, give us 3 turnovers in the first half and we win that game.

we can beat SC, but it won't count as our "signature win" because then they'll just be another down team this year. If we have four wins with SC, OM, Ark, and A&M left on the schedule I'll feel pretty good about finding 2 more.

Arkansas is reeling right now and their offensive strength buts heads against our defensive strength. Good matchup for us.

Egg bowl is in Starkville and we'll be more prepared for them than we have been for any other team in CDM's tenure.

It should be called the Mullen rule. I don't care who we play or who we beat until Mullen beats Alabama or LSU he will not have a signature win. He could beat a team better then them but there will always be some excuse behind the reason he won. If we beat A&M or SC they will not be signature wins.

He has beaten Auburn, Florida, Tenn, GA, Ole Miss, Vandy, KY and I think he will beat A&M and SC. It might be next year when he does beat A&M but it will not be a signature win for him. Only beating LSU or Alabama will satistfy the media and many posters here.

Again. It was LSU vs MSU.

We lost by 30+ to a 3-8 LSU team in 1998. We won the west and were beat by the one of the worst LSU teams in 20 years.

I was gonna point that out- we got skulldrug by LSU the year we played for the SEC title. And that was a 3-8 LSU team

Too many people try to discredit our record- it's nuts.

You dont see 1 damn OM fan talking about their 2009 Cotton Bowl team that was only 4-4 in the SEC. Something Mullen has done twice. OM OOC games that season? Memphis, SE La, UAB, and N. Arizona

Our school has had 9 signature wins in the last 50 years- we dont even average 2 sig wins per 10 years. Let that sink in

I agree.. It's time for Dan to win a BIG GAME...

Ole Miss, Vandy, Tenn, Auburn, and Mizzo did this past Saturday. Why can't Miss State?

Didn't Mullen beat one of those Cotton Bowl teams?

Mettenberger made a lot of mistakes. I just don't think they came out focus and took Ole Miss seriously. Seems to me they took us more seriously then they did Ole Miss. Maybe because they had just lost to GA I don't know but their offense just played bad and I think they had some pretty bad play calling as well.
