I think he has that backwards. We guarantee the money, he guarantees the 10 wins.

Honestly, him at LT probably does guarantee us a very good shot at 10.

I like this optimism. I think back to Will "Stone Legs" Rogers when he had Charles Cross. Now imagine a QB with an arm that can move. Ha. I can grow some wool about this.

Again we averaged 30 PPG with one of the worst offensive lines I have ever seen at MSU. How many points per game Dan we score with a decent OL even?

If we have a decent or good OL we could easily get up to 35 PPG. And if Arnett can make even marginal improvements to say 25 PPG which would be in the lower half of the SEC still- that's not too far from what Ole Miss did this year. They scored 37 PPG on offense and 21 PPG on defense and won 11 regular season. So if we can improve our numbers to 35/25 I could definitely see us getting 9-10.

[Todd4State]

And I was curious because of where we are now relative to Kiffin at Ole Miss in 2021- they averaged 34 PPG on offense and 24 on defense. They won 9 games that year.

Well I thought the comment that next year's defense was one player away being compared to the 2018 defense would be the worst take on this board, yet here we go.

You really think we are a LT away from having a shot to win 10 games next year? That means you think we are one player away from being a playoff team. Because with our schedule, 10 wins is a guaranteed playoff spot.

I am hoping that we can win 6-7 games next year.

There is noway to know without playing the game. We all know that. However, we also know what we accomplished with this offense and an extremely bad OL. Any improvement to the OL should result in more wins so long as there is no drop off at QB. I personally think that KT will continue to improve. With a better OL, our run game gets better.

When you combine that with an overall better defense, we should win more.


On Seaton, getting him puts our OL close to being elite over all. Still remains to be seen on what he is going to do, but I do like where we are.

I know a better OL wins you Tennessee and Texas. I suspect a better OL wins you Florida as well because you just run it at the end. That's 8 and all that takes is an average line because we should've won all those games with a god awful line.

Add a guaranteed day 1 NFL First Round pick at the most important position on the line? Hell yes I think that gets in the 10 win conversation.

That 30 PPG stat is about as real as pixie dust. We may have scored 30 in a few games, but by October/November the offense was just as bad as the defense.

100% agree. At the least, it puts us in the games with a great chance of winning each.

Nah. We averaged 27 a game after A&M with a line that somehow got worse as the year went on. Lebby has his faults, but our offense last year was impressive for how horrendous we were up front and a QB that just ate sacks.

[BlackSailsDawg]

Our average was 30.4. OOC games 40.2 and SEC 23.9.

Not that I place "stock" in projections, but we are projected to score 35.8 points on average and 29.5 in SEC play for 2026.

On Defense, we allowed 30.2 per game. Arnett’s defenses in Starkville consistently hovered around the top 5 in the SEC, rarely allowing more than 24 points per game. The projection is that we will allow 25.4 per SEC game. 14 in non conference.

He shared with me. I'm sure he will share with you too.

[Really Clark?]

We were 7th in the league in scoring vs ranked opponents (2 of our 3 OCT games were against TAM & Texas), 8th vs conference teams and 7th vs FBS teams with a winning record. But here is a stat not seen anywhere, we were 5th in the conference in scoring in our losses and 6th in scoring in our wins.

[Hot Rock]

Stuck.
May the dollars flow and we land the talent we badly need.

Maybe you can donate some of your VCash to 'em.

[BuckyIsAB****]

I don?t remember the offense scoring a meaningful point other than the first drive vs OM and UGA maybe after the Texas game. The rest of them the game was decidedly over. The last 3-4 possessions of the Texas game was a fireable offense in itself especially for a savant

[BuckyIsAB****]

We could not score vs wake forest or Toledo when it mattered. It?s a trend
