    The Past 30 years Jackie, Croom, Mullen, Moorhead, Leach

    I don't think we really are grasping the gravity of this year. In the past 30 years of State football we have only had a winning record in the conference five times. It took Mullen six seasons to get a winning record in conference. We have the ability to get that done this year in Leach's second season.

    Jackie: 4 winnings seasons
    Mullen: 1 winning season

    Jackie he only put back to back winnings seasons together once in 98' and 99'.

    Next year Idk what LSU is going to be, but we have a serious ability to finish two seasons in a row with a winning record in conference. Everyone was looking to Leach's third year. Well, us finishing strong this year 8-4 will really catapult us for a potential really nice run, especially with the way some of you folks are getting me all warm and fuzzy with recruiting.

    Winning 2 of our remaining 3 SEC games would be a great accomplishment. Will we do it? We will find out soon enough.

    Personally I think finishing 7-5 (should be 8-4 without being cheated at Memphis) will be a great accomplishment.

    I think the future is bright for football.

    It would be huge, no doubt. Of course, there's at least a chance we lose all 3 of our remaining SEC games. I don't think it will happen, but Arkansas being on the road makes that very tough and I'm not going to say we should beat OM this year. My guess is we finish 2-2 (1-2) and go 7-5 (4-4).

    We will be the underdog in all three.

    I be happy and pissed at the same time. I be pissed because of what it could have been if we beat LSU and Memphis.

    I agree Jack. But either way, I am glad to see the steady improvement and it gives me hope for next year and beyond.

    In other words - you will feel just like you did in the Sherrill era! LOL!

    My pick as of now is we finish 8-4

    Win a close game against Arkansas

    Lose by 14 to an auburn team that win or lose this Saturday, still has a shot at the sec title game

    Drum tennessee tech/state and we let Lovertich play the full 2nd half to see what he can do

    Win the egg bowl while lane kiffin is more focused on his contract negotiation with florida/lsu

    We might lose, but, I cannot see a blowout. Odom cannot do anything to us that any other team has not already done or tried. I think this offense as long as we don't shoot ourselves in the foot can and will move the ball on them, I think game comes down to the Defense honestly can we limit their rushing attack and not allow to many big plays. I really think this is our game to lose, I could be wrong, but I think its in the bag as long as we play like we did against UK.

    I agree , I think we win tomorrow but , we could get blown out by a pissed off auburn is what I'm thinking about, but 1 game at a time.

    I keep hearing akransas media talking about how good their pass defense is but what team that they faced yet is primarily a passing offense?
    Ole miss is rush, auburn rush, Georgia rush, texas a&m rush

    I think they are on par. It would truly be a coin flip game.

    I'd say Kentucky is better defensively and Arkansas offensively but probably pretty similar. Ole Miss is around the same as well IMO.
