Buy/Sell

...I know before I click on them it is going to follow the basic formula:
Buy/Sell-Something overly optimistic is going to happen. Buy.
For the record, sell. More like 15 or so. He started 9 games last year and threw for 9 TD's. I think he'll improve, but not by that much. Hope I'm wrong.

...since no MSU quarterback has ever thrown for more than 16 in a season.
In fact, only five have thrown more than eleven in a season:
1. Derrick Taite (1995) - 16 TD
2. Don Smith (1985) - 15 TD
3. Derrick Taite (1994) - 14 TD
3. Kevin Fant (2003) - 14 TD (thank YOU, Odell Bradley!)
5. Tony Shell (1988) - 13 TD
6. Four tied with 11 (Tommy Pharr, 1969; Dave Marler, 1978; Todd Jordan, 1993; Wayne Madkin, 1998)
10. Four tied with 10 (Fant, 2002; Madkin, 1999; Shell, 1990; Smith, 1986)
So given your near-complete lack of research, no I don't think Wes Carroll will have 20 TDs.

...and seeing how CB9 is the only person to buy, we have another example.
For the record, I just don't think he'll be healthy all year, and if he was, it'd be close.

So you're one of those dumbasses that thinks our starting QB that has a year of experience playing in the SEC under his belt, did damn good last year as a true freshman just off of shoulder surgery, and led us to 8 wins including a bowl victory, will be replaced by a 5 foot 10 guy that was in Juco last season?
</p>
of those dumbasses that has close contact to a lot of people here at Mississippi State and gets to occasionally watch practice. Croom had already said he will use both this year and both will have a role in the offense.
Well next time you are watching practice open your eyes. Lee will not replace Carroll as the starter. It's incredibly absurd to even think that might happen. Just because you talked to some third string receiver that likes to toss the ball around with Lee while the real team practices, doesn't mean that he will replace our starting QB. Lee will get some plays as a change of pace type thing, but he won't be the starter unless Carroll gets hurt.
1. The game was a lot different even 10 years ago. There's more passing than ever in today's game. Even we threw the ball well over 40% of the time last year and were the most run-oriented team in the conference. With an experienced QB, I think we'll be a little less run-oriented this year.
2. There are 12 games in every season now and statistics from bowl games also count now. So Carroll gets a 9% or an 18% advantage over all those players from the past just because of that. He could theoretically throw 18 TDs and break the record by two and not really have a better year than Taite did.

you knew buddy. Absurd huh? I'll hold you to that don't worry.
Edited to add - You must have thought it was absurd last year when Carroll got pulled more that once for Money Mike to come back in. Idiot.....

No way in Hell Carroll passes for 20 TDs. Go look at the stats VH pulled. Do you realize just how ****** our QB history is? The only time we've ever had QBs comparable to other SEC starters had ****** teams around them. We are MState. Good QB + Good team simultaneously = NEVER HAPPENING.
