This goes without saying

But good Lord its gonna seem like forever between now and next Saturday evening.

I wish we had our bye on the other side of Bama.

Well...we do get to beat off

If you want to talk about forever, that Anthony Johnson pick seems like a lifetime ago.

My son doesn’t remember it at all, and he’s in college. Feel old yet?

The last time a Mississippi State football coach NOT named Sylvester Croom..

actually beat Alabama....Bill Clinton was still in the White House.

I am taking the approach that our season starts the week after Bama and Bama is just a good practice to get us ready for the rest of the season. Getting to practice against the best will make the remaining games seem a little easier. You never know State might make Bama fans pucker up their butts for a quarter or two. All I know is I am taking my battle bell in case there are Bama fans around me so I can drown that "ROLL TIDE" bull **** and possibly piss one of them off.

 

[Ralph Cramden]

I guess it will be a good measuring stick, but even as optimistic about the future as I am, we are not ready. I hate for them to crush our little bit of confidence. But we will get it back the next week hopefully. They gonna beat us like a redheaded stepchild

I’m predicting we beat Bama like a drum…just kidding. I have been drinking.

A closet bama fan on here must’ve downvoted this.

There’s no such thing.

We could use one of Platninum's better posts to help with that... For some people! Not me of course.

We do. We play Vandy.

 

[maroonmadman]

I feel strangely optimistic about this game, don't know why but I just feel good about it. Kind of feel like we're going to pull off a last second miracle. Then again I'm at the age where senility and dementia may be creeping up on me so who knows.

 

[PirateDawg]

I don't think the team will be down after playing the #1 team in the country. I just hope nobody gets injured.
