Possibly a 3L in law school? “Student athlete “

 

The NCAA has been so inconsistent on eligibility.

Good win for State.  The OL looked good, defense was good against the run, RB looked good and Taylor looked really good throwing the ball.   The only concern was the pass rush.  After the half Minn started throwing more and State got no pressure on the QB.  Could have been the defensive play calling with the big lead.  Big game next week at SC.  
 

I was watching Texas/Ohio State, so I didn’t catch much of the OM game.  They did what they were supposed to do though and won easily.  They probably settled for to many FGs if you wanted to be picky, but who cares if they’re 2-0 and have their biggest game of the century coming up.  
 

The halftime LSU box score was wild.  LSU up 10-7.  Total offense was 280 yards vs 0 yards.  3 first half INTs for LSU.  If LSU plays like that next weekend they’ll get embarrassed.

1. Clemson saw a lot of new things from Kiffin & Weis and were severely unprepared 

 

2. Clemsons not a very good football team

 

3. Leavitt has always had a problem with

trying to be a superhero and turning it over

 

The Clemson game made LSU look like a force to be reckoned with. No doubt they’re talented with a top 5 roster. They’re still human though. Right now LSU is probably a td better than Ole Miss, but Leavitt can most definitely lose them that game Saturday

Hard to look at State’s performance so far and not feel like some games later in the season are more winnable than they first appeared.

 

Specifically thinking about that Oklahoma game in Starkville in late October. I am not sure I would want to play this State team if your offense isn’t very good. Ask Minnesota.

Overall, we appear to be a well coached team with some talent. If we stay healthy, I think we can be competitive in every game even though a few those games will obviously be losses. 
Confidence is also a part of the equation. It will be interesting to see how we respond if we have a bad start and get down early. With our offense, I think we will have the ability to come back if that happens. And it will. 
But until happens it will be a wait and see situation.

The talking point of “I hope State doesn’t lose Kamario in the portal” is already tiresome. It’s Week 2. What is the point of this? Enjoy what may be a really fun season while it’s going on, worry about next year next year.

 

And for what it’s worth, Kamario will probably be in Starkville next year anyway.
