We had a lead going into the fourth quarter against LSU. We had a lead on Kentucky as well in the second half. We actually outgained Alabama on offense. I don't get the "we don't look like we belong when we lose" comment.Quote:

We’ve won twice there in the last 31 years, and one of them was by Leach in 2020.
I mean we beat someone and all we hear is "well they're bad this year" and then we lose to someone like lsu and it's "they suck this year and we should've won", same with uk. Can't have it both ways. Losing sucks, I get it, but no sec game is easy and every sec win is a good one and earned.Quote:

I don't think it is the losses that many have issue, it is how we looked in them with all three being down compared to normal. UK is the one that really burns me.
I don't understand how everyone (media and MSU fans) elevate UK to LSUUGA status? This perplexes me. UK used to be MSU stepchild that others made fun of that we got to play every year like Vandy and OM. UK is better but they are still UK.
Hahaha. You know it.Quote:

Ha, LOL.Quote:

LSU is the best they've been by far since 19, no?Quote:

Instead of a win we showed up unmotivated and unprepared and that is on coaching.
CML needs to finish 8-4 now or he will 100% be on the hot seat next year.
Alabama is what ? The fourth best team in the country, and after those four there is a huge drop off. How many teams are winning on the road there ? I don’t see how you can say they are down , what they have 19 NFL players instead of 21 ? 23 5 stars instead of 25 ? That’s a crock. They could win the NC this year as easily as Georgia, Ohio state or Tennessee.
Without Bryce Young, Alabama is a 9-3 team.Quote:

Its also projecting the finish of the season and how things are going in recruiting in stateQuote:

7-5 with 3 straight EB losses and Lane Kiffin working his magic putting us in the dust.
Could be 7-5/8-4 seems likely, and that’s what I and a lot of people said at the beginning of the year. You could also say we’d be 8-1 if we had ole miss schedule, which we get next yearQuote:
