As I have noted, the white out does not bother me since it is one of our colors. I don’t think uniform colors will have anything to do with winning or losing this game. AZ is certainly improved but they were similar to us in that the game was close in the third quarter with NAU. It was 14-3 when AZ blocked a FG and ran it back for a TD. That broke the game open. But it could have been an 8 point game at that point. As we all know, neither team did much beyond just winning each respective game. Our DL will need to dominate the LOS to disrupt their offense. They do have some playmakers on offense but if we win the LOS then we can neutralize those players from making a lot of big plays. Offensively, I think we will be able to move the ball. Just need to cash in on our opportunities. Avoid turnovers. Special teams will hopefully be strong for us again. But the biggest key to winning is for our DL to dominate the LOS.

While I think Starkville beats Meridian, I believe we will put up a better showing than a 42-6 loss. Though, Biloxi is not very strong we definitely improved last week. Our defense has actually been pretty solid in both games to date. Starkville 24 Meridian 14.

At least State is not doing a black out Saturday. I can live with a white out since white is one of our primary colors. But black is uggggghhh all the way around…including basketball, baseball and any other sport. Now on to important stuff… OM @ Tulane….should be a good game but Tulane will not sneak up on anyone this year so I like OM to win. Not a blow out necessarily but a 14-17 point type win. 42-24 final. USM@Free Shoes University…they are actually catching the Noles at a great time, a week after the LSU game. I think Eagles can hang with FSU for a while but will end up losing around 38-17. AZ-State…has the makings for a competitive game. Fortunately for us we played there last year and with this game at home, I like us to come out with a win. But it will not be easy. I think we will still continue to struggle some on offense, though we will see some improvement. State pulls away late for a 34-14 win in a game that will be much closer than the final score will reflect. TX-Bama is not going to be as close as most think. Bama wins solidly 27-14. But TX scores late to make it look closer than it will really be. A&M, Oregon and Washington State all win. I am going to go against the grain here and say Nebraska beats Colorado. Colorado crashes down after a gut wrenching emotional victory and the Huskers finally break through and win a close game against one of their old Big 8 rivals. 28-27 will be the final.

Talk about opening a can of whoop a**. Florida State did just that in the second half. LSU lost the game in the first half. Five times in the red zone but only 17 points to show for it.

LSU 17 FSU 14 halftime LSU caught a break on the reversal of the fumble/incompletion. It was probably the right call but I didn’t necessarily see if enough to overturn the original call. I thought it would stand.

Well just like that it is 14-14. Great drive by FSU to tie it up.

Deon has definitely got Colorado back on the map and I agree with you 83 that he has piqued the interest of the CFB world. A win - win for them all the way around. LSU-FSU good game so far. Though LSU seems to be getting the momentum now.

He is certainly a good coach. JSU was in quick sand when he got there and he elevated them. Appears to be doing the same at CO. Running your mouth is fine as long as you can back it up. But eventually that can wear thin and if things go South on you it can turn into a snowball of nightmares. It will be interesting to see how he fares this year and in the near future.

Solid starts for OM, State and USM. With State being sluggish through the first half. Obviously, this week we know much better about all three teams. OM @ Tulane….should be a good game but Tulane will not sneak up on anyone this year so I like OM to win. Not a blow out necessarily but a 14-17 point type win. 42-24 final. USM@Free Shoes University…they are actually catching the Noles at a great time, a week after the LSU game. I think Eagles can hang with FSU for a while but will end up losing around 38-17. AZ-State…has the makings for a competitive game. Fortunately for us we played there last year and with this game at home, I like us to come out with a win. But it will not be easy. I think we will still continue to struggle some on offense, though we will see some improvement. State pulls away late for a 34-14 win in a game that will be closer than the final score will reflect.

Not too surprised that State had some struggles today. Even though it is a veteran team, the offense is new and different and it is going to take some time to gel. Glad we were playing SEL. I think next week against AZ we will see a better showing.

Well I was wrong about UT-UVA. Prognosticators were correct. Colorado - TCU reminded me the State-LSU game in 2020. Great win by CO but I wonder if they can sustain it. Sanders is a great QB and will be playing on Sundays somewhere.

Georgia Tech was competitive last night. Think OM will win comfortably when they play but it may not be the 42-0 cake walk like last year.

Well that is one down for the starship. Will Mize make it two in a row. Captain Kirk err EB must be a bit nervous now.

We played Hoover about 6 years and got beat badly. Too bad we couldn’t have played them 10-15 years ago when we would have matched up better with them. Tremendous job beating them in their stadium too!!! Well Done!!!

Meridian broke open a close game at the half to beat Biloxi 42-14. Certainly much better than last week. We are definitely not world beaters but getting a “W” is huge for these kids. Discipline, penalties were much improved tonight.

Great win for you guys!!! Congrats!!!!
