1. We are going to win a shootout tomorrow. I think Tennessee will be able to run on us, but we are going to have some big plays in the passing game. The defense will hold Tennessee to a couple of field goals instead of touchdowns and we win a 45-41 type game.
Just sayin', if we do this, we should be considered a playoff caliber team.

2. The interlocking logo looks great on helmets but not on anything else.
Agree. But white helmets suck. And so do maroon ones with stripes. Just make it maroon with the interlocking logo.

5. Ole Miss is going to boatrace LSU by three scores +
Ole Miss ain't that great.

I don't have any real issues with your other opinions, but this one should be highlighted. Right up there with slow cooked bacon.

You gotta let that fat get right...
You cook a fatty ribeye at 600-700 degrees to a perfect medium rare. Let it rest with a little garlic butter and it’ll creep up another 10 degrees. The fat will char on the outside and render on the inside.

I've been saying we should be looking at the road to the playoff objectively. We aren't going undefeated and we aren't going to the SEC Championship game. Could we end up 5-3 in the SEC and in that 4th/5th position. Absolutely. And that starts tomorrow after we beat Tennessee.

I, too, loathe the white helmets. Maroon is a much better look. Silver/gray should be the alternate instead of white.

Yeah, but LSU isn't very good at all. They were propped up after beating Clemson, who has turned out to be a paper tiger. If we had decent AP voters, they would be penalizing LSU for looking lackluster against Louisiana Tech and Florida. My statement is less about Ole Miss and more about LSU.

5. LSU wins

East side of Davis Wade has best sight lines.

Junction is 100% better now

Stagger is the coolest bar in town.

Crawfish are trash

4. Petty's was always better than Little Dooey.

No. 4 is correct.

Lol, the boatracing will be in Starkville.........It's coming and no we won't like the results......We're just too thin on both side of the LOS to beat really good teams........

The last field goal to seal the west vs Arkansas was wide left
Also, when we beat LSU in 2019, Rod Gibson didn't get in the endzone on that play (although I think he did get in the play before and they didn't give it to us)

My wife got Grape Nuts on the brain a few months ago and I went to the Smallmart to get some. Looked up and down the cereal aisle and assumed they didn't carry it. Went to the CS desk and asked if they had it and they looked at me like I had 2 heads. They looked it up and sure enough there it was hiding on the bottom shelf. No doubt an acquired taste and texture.
You just need really good teeth. It's pretty much like eating rocks.

Neither our white or maroon with white stripes are anywhere near as bad as Memphis's blue tiger stripes or the Bengal's black and white tiger stripes. Those things are dizzying.

I don’t enjoy bringing a cowbell to a game. Find it to be an inconvenience. But have no issues with others doing it.

I don’t like Hail State as a slogan or a thing you say to a stranger in a maroon shirt. To me that’s just the name of our fight song. I prefer go State or Go Dogs.

That’s another pet peeve of mine: Dogs vs Dawgs. We are the Bulldogs, not the Bulldawgs. So I prefer Dogs.

I also think we have a legit chance to win on Saturday. I just don’t believe UT is as reliable in these kind of games as the Bama/UGA/LSU types. They took a bad loss at Arkansas last year and their best team in recent memory got boat raced at South Carolina with their playoff hopes on the line a couple of years ago. We could get smoked, yes, but I also believe we have a better chance than many are giving us, especially at home.

I think Oby’s also may be overrated…. It’s fine, but it’s the only place my wife ever wants to eat when we are in town and I don’t think it’s THAT good.
I'll tolerate a lot, but Oby's slander is where I draw the line. It's the best restaurant in Starkville and in Oxford

Yep. Funny thing was the young woman who looked it up was so intrigued by what I was talking about she took me over to find it. Handed her a box and told her it's basically a box of BB's in weight, flavor and texture ... it's an "acquired taste" if you're wondering "why?".

The original Banner M is far superior to the redesign and looks great on apparel.

I never minded it as the basketball mid court logo or on a few different pieces of apparel I had. I just thought it sucked on a bland white Croom era football helmet.

Beer is Best drank from a frosted glass or mug. Beer is better drank from a bottle. Beer is good from an aluminum can. When I say good I really mean convenient.

We've had two versions?
Yes. The banner on the Croom helmet was created in like 1995 or 96. The redesign occurred in 2008. Just look up a Croom helmet vs. what we wore from 2009-2022 and you will notice the differences.

Women shouldn't drink beer. It just looks masculine. Stick with fruity drinks with an umbrella.
