I think we could win it by a couple of touchdowns, State could throw up 450 yards of offense again, we could have a letdown from the LSU game, etc.
The only thing I'm sure of is that there will be 5-10 people that successfully sneak their cowbells into the stadium.

game with this many points. However, we've been a horrible road team this year....horrible. See La tech, Ga tech, UT, Bama = worst losses of the season. Yes, losing to La tech by 8 is like losing to the other teams by 20 or more. If MState got some turnovers early or/and Jevan Sneed gets injured we have a shot. I'm not saying I want Sneed to get injured....just saying that would help us.
They have 3 possible 1st rounders between their offensive (Oher) and defenisve (Hardy/Jerry) lines......
Plus, I can't see us being able to cover Wallace or McCluster........Too much speed.........

...Croom goes into this 5th (I think it's his 5th) Egg Bowl as a 2 TD underdog to OM's 1st year coach?
"Croom stays no matter what" is the refrain to that reality. Why does Croom stay? I thought the deal was to build on last year's 8-5 season. Well, that deal has been broken.
That's why I am in the one man minority that says Croom gets fired if he doesn't win this Egg Bowl. State's "cigar boys" can't sit there & watch Nutt be a 2 TD favorite over Croom when they know full well if Croom stays @ MSU until the year 2020, Croom will never be a 2 TD favorite over OM in any future Egg Bowls.
The fact Nutt could take O's mess &, in 1 season, build it into something that is 2 TD's better than what Croom has built in 5 years...that's a tipping point.
Yes, I was taking up for Croom last year when several idiots on this board were busy down-grading & bad-mouthing all 8 wins.
But I haven't been on this board enough this season to make any type of stance one way or another.
But I will take a stance now & say if a 5th year HC goes into his big rival game a 2 TD underdog to his rival's 1st year coach, then the 5th year guy better damn well win that game if he wants to keep his job.

No doubt that it is shameful that Crooms is such an underdog in his situation....
I also think that Nutt, or any good football coach for that matter, would've produced similar results here in 2004. But, Crooms was content to bad mouth our talent level, concede that we should've lost to Maine by MUCH more, blah blah blah.
Something's got to give. Barely beating the absolute worst team in the conference should be no kind of sign of progress for a 5th-year coach. I am glad to finally beat these clowns, but we should have beaten them many, many, many more times in the past 10 years.

Screw him!
This is like a persecution. I thought this was supposed to be a free speach board...not so.

making a prediction for a team to win 8 games that couldnt even score in its own Spring Game is idiotic. Being positive is about talking about possible strengths, and commenting on how they could help you...something like that...There is a difference in being positive and out of touch with reality
Ronny came on here telling us we were idiots for not seeing that Crooms had turned the program around and not being on board with the "Crooms train"...he also said Crooms was going to show us and make us eat our words...thats why Ronny gets called out
