We can win this one. There's a reason why we are picked to lose though, so we better get up on them early and maintain a lead. We also have to tackle their QB 1 on 1. He's a much stronger guy than he looks. His legs are stout enough to break tackles so hopefully we wrap up. Supposedly Jimothy Lewis is a game time decision and probably won't play. Looks like Luke Work will play and maybe Shumpert steps in on the line somewhere. Their d-line isn't known for their pass rush, so maybe our line will be able to pass block. Our size is bigger all over the field, so we are for sure a different team this year. I'd like to see Bothwell do to them what Scattaboo did to us.

This one is big, and it's one that we can win.

I think the game will go a lot like the Baylor-Auburn game, another game where one of the Big 12 favorites is going against one of the bottom teams in the SEC. I think Auburn is greatly improved, and I think State is greatly improved. Auburn had a 17-10 halftime lead on Baylor and broke it open in the third quarter. I think we see something similar tonight. Maybe 14-10 at halftime, and then a couple of scores in the third quarter.

Mississippi State 31, Arizona State 17.

Penalties and bone-headed mistakes will kill us. Think the O will put up good numbers only to have too many drive killing mistakes. Rack up a few FG's and garbage TD's. 34-20

I'm shocked by the optimism. Am I the only one who remembers our guys getting bullied for the whole first half against a sun belt team? I see despair (reality) setting in on many of you poor fellas this evening.

I am so happy to be wrong, though.
