Never believed that Briles was coming to State be the OC. Lebby is not giving up play callingQuote:

Don't buy into that narrative. The view of Jeff Lebby in the coaching profession isn't the same as the view of Jeff Lebby in the eyes of a faction of the fans who want to skip steps in the process of getting the program back on sound footing.Quote:

Let Lebby call the plays. We averaged 30 PPG without an offensive line. That's kind of impressive in a sick way.
Better DC, easier schedule, better players... I think we will be fineQuote:

We State fans have sustained our entire lifelong fandom on the self-proclaimed hope of what might be. *****Quote:

You would think a team like that could never blow a huge lead in the 4th quarter and punt to
The best return guy in the country or anything
And 9 SEC games.Quote:

OC is not a need like getting a legit DC.
Since we play South Carolina next season I don't like it but it is what it is.
You know that Lincoln Riley is a better offensive mind than Lebby, right?Quote:

Gotta win 4 of those to get to 6
Exactly. If we have decent o-line we could easily get to 34-37 PPGQuote:

We were 9th in scoring offense in sec play. Certainly not horrible, but 4 of the 7 teams below us fired their coachQuote:

This year's schedule was easy compared to that. Which 3 of those are we beating? Mizzou at home, maybe. Auburn and Vandy, same. South Carolina, I lean loss because it's on the road. Everything else is just about a guaranteed loss. OM I put into tossup category just because it's a rivalry game. But in Oxford, I'm far from optimistic.
Asks me who we will beat. And then you answered your own question.Quote:

We played three teams that went 11-1 this year. Texas ended up a borderline playoff team. Mizzou had a really good season despite massive injuries to their QB room. The only bad teams we played were Florida and Arkansas. We played both of them on the road. And Tennessee won 8 games.
