Dawg83 Posted yesterday at 04:27 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:27 PM Because I guess we should. Ole Miss at Oklahoma - curious to see how OM approaches this game now that their Playoff path is probably not there anymore. I don’t know what the heck Oklahoma is. They might be the weirdest team in the sport this year. Vegas has OM as only a 1.5 point favorite. I’m gonna lean into OU being at home and having a great defense and say the Sooners win 23-20. Also I predicted OM to go 8-4 and they probably have to lose this game for me to be right, lol. Auburn at State - who even cares? I don’t think Auburn is any good and at the same time I think they’re head and shoulders above the current version of State. I have the Tigers winning something like 30-13. And maybe you see a coaching change on Monday but probably not. It would probably take a Tennessee Tech loss or an absolute murder in the Egg Bowl for State to put their big boy britches on and make a move. But instead it feels like you’re probably getting Year 4 of a regime that would be the worst by SEC winning percentage in modern history if not for Chad Morris era Arkansas. Texas at LSU - I am still a little iffy on Texas, and I think the obituary for LSU’s season could end up being premature. I have LSU winning at home, and making the playoff discussion a lot more interesting. Bama at Vandy - lightning not gonna strike twice in the same spot. Tied by 24 or more. Mizzou at Georgia - UGA is probably winning the whole thing if you made me pick. Certainly will take them here. Florida at Kentucky - Florida also has a case for weirdest team in the sport. I’m worried that the Kentucky experience is about to be a disappointing end and they finish something like 8-4. I have UF winning this one. SC at Arkansas - talk about a team rising from the ashes, the Gamecocks can win this one and have a huge stakes home game with Georgia next week. SC wins here.

pancho Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Maybe the news of Kamario returning for next season to MSU ignites the team saturday...........I doubt he makes such a commitment without knowing who his offensive coach will be. They seem to feel confident that they can portal in some quality guys and have a pretty good squad around Kamario next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think you have to read between the lines on him resigning this early…. Lebby will be back. Playoff or bust in 2027, no excuses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor wouldn’t commit to coming back to State if Lebby wasn’t returning. As for confidence in getting quality portal guys, I thought that was the plan last year. lol. Now the pressure is on Lebby to beat TN Tech in two weeks. *** 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSTSatchmo Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago OM gets back on track in a close one. Auburn by 10 LSU makes next week’s 3 loss SEC talk more interesting. Bama UGA KY SC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldogs4 Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago Look for Ole Miss to bounce back in a big way with a convincing win over Oklahoma. 28-16. The Barn at State. The last five games State has easily outperformed the Barn in being terrible (sans the Georgia game). So I will take State to outworse The Barn by a losing score of 17-23. Texas@LSU. The SEC has designated that Texas is going to make the playoff this year so look for officiating to ensure that a repeat of last weeks TX-Mizzou game happens again. TX 24-20. Alabama has a let down after the big win at LSU. Vandy plays hard and well and gives Bama a scare before fading in the fourth quarter. Bama 32, Vandy 27. Missouri is a bad road team so look for Georgia to win easily 38-17. Mizzou has a couple of late scores to make the score more respectable. Florida-Kentucky. Weather is supposed to be in thirties for this game Saturday. Florida chills out and loses 25-14. SCAR-Arky. Arky has been improving and I look for this game to be more competitive than expected. SC pulls away late 35-24. Tennessee @ A&M. A&M salvages a disappointing season by upending an overrated Tennessee in spite of the officiating doing its best to ensure that Tennessee makes the playoff. A&M 18-Tennessee 16. All this speculation about Lebby will be put to rest now. Nobody in their right mind will fire the guy after what has happened this year on the injury front. I do agree that 2027 will be a playoff or bust season for State. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playoff or bust in 2027, no excuses. But can they keep Taylor healthy for an entire season? If you are paying him 7.5 million with incentives worth up to 9 million, there's no excuse not to be two deep with 4 & 5 star OL either.

Dawg83 Posted 2 hours ago Author Share Posted 2 hours ago Maybe not a huge surprise but Kewan Lacy out for the season for OM. Been a frustrating season in this state with star players not being healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancho Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago He ain't wanting anything but get ready for the combine. He should have had surgery last year . wasn't he like 3rd string at Mizzou? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebmus Posted 53 minutes ago Share Posted 53 minutes ago What is State planning to spend in NIL this offseason in football? KT is a special player, there are a lot of other positions to hold on to or fill with new players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It ain’t gonna be a Miami or Texas Tech or LSU level of spending but I feel confident it will be a good bit higher than they’ve ever spent on NIL before. or that is the intent…. You still gotta convince dudes to sign up to play for a coach that hasn’t won jack diddly squat. They seem to be banking / hoping on the allure of playing with Kamario Taylor pulling a lot of weight.

rebmus Posted 21 minutes ago Share Posted 21 minutes ago 83, it will almost definitely not be 13th in the SEC like this year… I’m guessing around 9th? Then again, almost everyone will pay more… how much more is a big guess. Georgia is getting a pretty great ROI compared to some others. 11th in SEC NIL A&M shows 3rd in SEC NIL, ouch.
