Its now officially football season

[Vott]

The CWS is over and the book is closed on the 2025-2026 college season. Time to talk about what your team will do this season in football. Ole Miss will be really good MS State better than last season and Southern Miss will be almost back to the Will Hall type season.

I'm about ready.

Can Golding win 7 or how about 8?   Lebby might win 4 or 5?  USM will hope for 3 wins and call it progress.

State has a good amount of a winnable games. ULM, Minn, SC, Mizzou, Vandy, Auburn. Wouldn’t be surprised if they upset one of the powerhouses. 6 wins would be a good year

I'm glad you have that optimism.  If they could win all 6 of those, I'd be thrilled.

Do we have to?

In all seriousness, I think Kamario Taylor is a great talent that could be a lot of fun if State can keep him standing upright.

 

I’m less confident in State being able to keep him standing upright.

 

I also think State’s schedule is insane. 9 SEC games plus a road game against an 8 win Big 10 team.

 

I think State could win 5 to 7 games. But if you asked me if it’s more likely that they win 8 or that Lebby is fired, would say it’s way more likely that Lebby gets fired.

 

i feel like you will know the drill by Week 4. State is at Minnesota, at South Carolina, Mizzou at home in weeks 2-4. Lebby is toast if he goes 0-3 in that stretch, and he probably needs to be 2-1 in those games considering the next four are Bama-LSU-Oklahoma-Texas all in a row (thanks for that, Birmingham).
