    As tough as our schedule is 8 wins would be a great season.

    Oh, and beat OM too. Losing 3 in a row to them should be a fireable offense.
    I agree. 7 and the egg at minimum is what I expect

    No. We are not an 8 win team. No wonder you’re so pissed off all the time…you think we are better than we are.

    I really hate to agree with this, but unfortunately I do. Given the strength of this year's schedule, I just can't see more than 6 wins. Some of the sting of that will be deflected if we beat Umissy. But, that is a HUGE if. Just sayin. . . . . .

    You guys that are expecting 8 - 9 - 10 wins have obviously not been MSU fans as long as I have.

    Agreed, especially with the #1 SOS in the nation.

    I grew up next to the stadium and have been going to games since 67...and i still expect 10 wins.. i think 55 years of going to games qualifies me.

    That's a preseason deal. There is no way to know who has the toughest schedule for a season that has yet to be played.

    Leach will be flippant about everything. We will throw it 0-5 yards 20 times a game. But beat Memphis, Ole Miss and find 4-5 more, he is good with me.

    I'm looking forward to watching us play this season.

    Honest question.

    Say we get to 10 wins….. Would you expect Will Rogers to be in New York for a certain ceremony?

    Not saying he wins it, just gets an invite?

    You have to admit it’s a tough schedule. How many teams could win 10-11 games with that schedule ? 8-9 wins would be a very good year and team.

    That defense should be good. I like the D line depth and the d bs we picked up. Leach has never had a really good defense ....ever.

    This will be the best team Leach coaches at State. We will see the proof this Fall

    Best team he’s had yet....but I think given time he will have better O lines and q bs who can run and throw deep will give the offense a much different look.

    7 wins will be the ceiling. I believe we really struggle to get bowl eligible this year.

    If we can get to a NY6 bowl and win it plus winning the Egg Bowl, I'll literally find a crow on Ebay and grill it....

    Until I see our team come out and produce from the beginning of the game through the final horn, I will have doubts. We continue to struggle early in many games and allow teams to be in games (Memphis) until it bites is in the ass. The second half of Auburn was great but first half was pitiful. Just cannot be successful on a high level being that inconsistent. IMO the KY game was our most complete game last year, and we beat them soundly.
