I noticed on the prediction thread that a few

[confucius say]

Bc LSU is a team that like to pound the ball. And w our dt's I think they are one of the teams capable of taking advantage of it. Now I can hope, that our offense will look vastly improved bs them. But that's an unknown

Fair point.

Related note, all the talk out BR is that they are happy with their new ?spread? offense and are going more bama/tua style, but I?ll believe it when I see it.

Believe it or not the defense was actually better last year than it was in 2017...but the offense and special teams put them in terrible spots game after game with turnovers and horrible field position. I think most of the team kinda gave up in the last two games. Players getting suspended, etc.

The entire DL will be seniors as will the MLB so if they still suck it won't be for lack of experience.

New coordinators can change things quickly so who knows and the game is in Arkansas. All that said, we hope our offense is better this year and we could have named the score last year. I think it will be a few more years before that defense is back to what it was. However, Morris could possibly get the offense clicking and make it a shoot out so who knows. I don't think our defense will regress out of the top 30 but you never can tell with injuries or other things happen.

I picked us to win but really have TN and LSU as toss ups. Both out recruit us. Tennessee's OL is very talented. I think those 2 games will determine how good Stevens is. We have our holes too but if he can overcome our deficiencies and get those wins it would say a lot about him.

Aren't they starting two freshman at both OT spots? One depth chart I saw was a redshirt at RT and a true freshman at LT (he was a 5 star though).

It's up there and our defense will not be as solid as last year. I just don't see us winning many SEC road games.

2-2 on the road in the SEC isn’t a bad thing..and that should result in no worse than a 4-4 league record.
Which should be a 8-4 season. Again a very solid season.

If we go 8-4 and show improvement on the offensive end I'll be happy.

For the sake of all MSU message boards, I just want an 8-4 or better year with a dynamic offense. If everything goes as planned, Stevens and Hill should be a dynamic duo. I think people are forgetting we have probably one of the 3 best running backs in the SEC to pair with Stevens.
