This has the feeling of last year's game of us vs. Georgia. We had just come off of a win against an overrated division rival that we have a history of losing badly to and thought that the next game against a superior opponent in the other division would go similarly. The players and the fans were talking an absurd amount of crap while the other team was quietly confident.
This year, we are the Georgia in that scenario. I expect the results to be similar.
That's not what I said. In fact it isn't even close. LOL.Quote:

The early signs are positive, but none of the opponents have been that good. We will have a little more concrete evidence after this weekend, maybe.Quote:

Again we won't know anything till we play Auburn according to you because we all know you're going to discredit Florida after we beat Kentucky by 3 touchdowns.Quote:

MSU 42 UK 17
Our schedule has been weak, but we have utterly dominated that schedule. Not as good as actually beating someone good, but should be a good indicator of what is to come.Quote:

They are the first team y'all are saying even has a chance to beat us. I like the way this part of the schedule sets up. I think it escalates the challenge a bit every week building up to LSU. I know Florida lost to UK but you KNOW Mullen will have them chunking babies out of the stands against us. We will get whatever their best shot is. We just need to get through this weekend with a win and no major injuries, or minor ones to key players. Dak got banged up a bit up there in 2014 and he was never quite the same the rest of that year. I don't know if it cost us a natty, but it sure didn't help matters.Quote:

Hopefully it a long and fun one.Quote:

All opponents look like shit when you are one of the best. WE will handle Kentucky, then everyone is going to say......wonder how we will look against FL. Then we will come home and smash FL. Then everyone will say those teams are all down, obviously because of how we beat them. Then we manhandle LSU on the road and then everyone will say, well yeah MSU is rolling, but what about Auburn.....
On and on and on, and that is what I like about it. Keep overlooking us. Chip permanently on our shoulder as we run this gauntlet. Nothing matters until you get to 11-1 or 12-0. Keep moving the goalpost on this team. We are going to make a lot of teams look bad when they line up against us. Like GA and AU did against us last year. We were a good team, but not at their level. This year they are not at ours.
This guy gets it!Quote:

But, it is a good thing thing to keep them focused on Kentucky instead of looking forward to "Don Merlins" coming back!
OT: I kinda wonder if it was Gus (or maybe Brett Lashley) that made those anonymous comments about Mullen's offense a few years ago.Quote:

No, because when we beat Auburn the narrative will then be that Auburn is down.**Quote:
