    LSU fans thoughts on their game with us...

    On TigerDroppings they all basically think it will be a raping. I think the closest score I saw was 48-20, which was followed by several saying no way MSU scores 20 on us.

    It will be interesting to see if our fans are crazy for thinking we can play with them, or if their's are crazy for thinking it will be a route.

    I think somewhere in between. About a 14 point loss

    Well, if you're them, there's no reason not to assume it'll be a beatdown. Hope I'm wrong though.

    I agree. They look at us as a weak tune up for their next big game against Florida. Can't say I blame them the way they've dominated us lately

    Can't blame them for those opinions.

    Before I saw the LSU-UGA slug fest, I thought we had a good shot to beat LSU. I still think we can win but it gone be tough mayne.

    We can win if we play well- and we should play well with an extra week to get ready

    Cant blame them for feeling that way- but their fans are always delusional about scores. Les never wins by enough in their opinion

    Lately? As in the last 2-3 decades? Yeah 9.5 is a gift from heaven. More like 29.5

    I think we play well....

    it will be a 10 point or less game, Vegas gets it right a lot more than they get it wrong. Also, we are just as good as UF and better than Mizzou, UK and TN. Not sure about Ark they looked pretty good last night. Bogey will be making his first trip to Starkville this year, should be a great atmosphere.

    Hate to say it, but schools like lsu, ala, ga, fla,,etc.,look at State the same way we look at UAB , Memphis, La. Monroe. Those are games you should never lose.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see complete dominance.

    Something like 25-0.

    Yeah, then they will accuse us of hiring one of their coaches!

    They did not come close to dominating us in either of the first two games in Starkville under Mullen. We scored 17 on them last year in BR, and their defense is not as good as it was then. If Dak starts, there's no way they shut us out.

    I hate to say it, but I think we get our butts kicked again. We'll show up and play hard, but we don't match-up well anywhere with them.

    the score should've tipped you off to the sarcasm. I think it'll be a good game, but we don't have the horses to close IMO.

    The only thing that scares me about them is their passing game.

    Stats on the LSU defense

    61st in points per game
    55th in rushing yards against
    39th against the pass

    They've played TCU, UAB, Kent State, Auburn, and UGA so they have these numbers with a decent schedule and a few patsies, but it's clearly not the same dominating LSU defense we are accustomed to.

    This game sets up perfect for Dak to have success. UAB rushed for 160 yards against LSU, Auburn rushed for 213, and UGA rushed for 196. LSU isn't as physical up front and they aren't as sure of tacklers as they have been. They are weaker in the secondary too. Add to that the game being at night in Starkville and we have something to be excited about. With Dak at QB, maybe for the first time in a long time we have the ability to exploit a potential weakness in an LSU defense.

    I think this game comes down to our defense. Can we get Mettenberger to make mistakes and get him off of his spot. If we can do that semi-consistently, we win this game. If Dak starts and plays the whole game, we score 20-24 points on them. Can our defense hold them at or near that? I think we can physically go toe to toe with this LSU team because we have a big and fast defense and we have a QB that can bang it in the run game. I'm really looking forward to this game.

    In my opinion, it will all be about how we start defensively. We need to come out and set the tone with our defense. We will not win a shootout, so while scoring is important, we should be able to tell a lot by the end of the 1st quarter. We will probably have to hold them under 24 to even have a chance

    I know that this isn't the popular opinion- but Dak is going to have to throw the ball a little bit better- and we're going to have to catch it better if we're going to go that route. Plus, Dak is going to have to give to our backs every once in awhile instead of running it all the time- or we're going to possibly have to start Tyler because Dak gets knocked out.

    Fireproof internet suit- on.
