I honestly don't think so. I think we're that much better than them. If we play up to our capacity, neither of those teams can beat us in Starkville. It's going to be a pretty simple game plan, with the potential for some adjustments in terms of how much we blitz/keep Safeties over the top. That, to me, is the only major in game adjustment we could see. I do to see us going to a zone much... I don't see us throwing 8-9 in the box a lot... I don't see us coming with a lot of run blitzes... I don't see us blitzing off the edge more than a few times per half...

I think we're just going to line up, tackle in space, date them to take shots against Redmond and Calhoun, and let P Smith, Jones, BMac, and company wreak absolute havoc up front. Wouldn't be shocked to see Preston get his 3rd INT of the season in this one to be honest.

Personally, I'm more worried about big penalties hurting us than them consistently running up and down the field. Targeting, flask masks, etc... to extend drives would be a killer, and we will be a target by the SEC refs for the next few weeks. No way around it.
