Outside of Starkville, nobody could believe we fired Moorhead or Arnett when we did, and a lot of people were even surprised we fired Croom. Of course we know our own situation better than others. Just like Virginia Tech fans knew their situation better than we did, and UCLA fans, etc., etc.
He's had a lot of "huge games" this year.Quote:

Hopefully he evens it out, but it's a sign for a nail biter. I think most every state fan will take our chances with a close game in the last 5 minutes. Yea big chance our coach royally ****s it up, buttttttt he didn't **** it up in two of those chances. Overall 40% odds is objectively what we're looking at (hand waving opponent level obviously lol).
A 2013 style win with Kamario playing the role of Dak (i know Dak was the true starter and just injured) would galvanize the fanbase. Propel us to 6-6 and a bowl game against a shitty school. Win that. Look ahead at a schedule full of teams with ?s. Keep KT / Isaac and upgrade the OL/DL. State could have a 2014 style year next year.
Hope is dangerous. It can drive a man insane. I'm choosing to be insane until 11 AM on friday rather than being proactively pessimistic. Insane people have more fun.
I actually feel better about the egg now than I have all season. I think the combo of them being distracted and us being embarrassed at mizzou is gonna have us ready to pounce. I really hope Friday night and Saturday is a whole bunch of calling me out... I will be here to take my medicine.Quote:

Some of the Lane Kiffin stuff on X is pretty brutal.
Their fans are either in denial that he is leaving or they're making buttons for the Egg Bowl that say FULK.
Where is LSU on the Brian Kelly firing/buyout situation. I wonder if the results of that will impact the hiring
Any chance we can talk Dj Durkin into being our DC?
I would really like that. I come here for rumors!!!Quote:

If he doesn't have job he may have to take what he can get. That said if it takes 3 million to get him I'm good with that but we're probably going to have to give Lebby a raise too since he's getting 4.5 million.Quote:

Huff should have game prepped instead of reading tiger droppings and hoping that he indeed does have an interview lined up with Ole Miss.
