If Trent can't beat Bama in a high-stakes game at home, when they don't have Tony Mitchell, then this season is probably done. (if it's not already)
I disagree, but only from the standpoint that winning ONE out of Vandy, Bama and State wasn't a MUST, but important, in that it leaves a lot on the table for the rest of the season.
In order to keep 9-7, and that tiny flicker of an NCAA hope alive, they need to beat State or Alabama, and Alabama is definitely the more winnable of the two. That said, even losing on Saturday, while not IDEAL, is still not the end of the world. LSU is capable of beating State (or more directly, State is capable of losing to LSU), but I sure as hell wouldn't put money on it.
If not, still a reasonable shot to finish 7-9 or 8-8 by closing out the season well..... but, we CAN beat Alabama.... and it would be great for the kids' confidence if they did.
Up to them to get it done.

I like our chances without Mitchell and at home, they just seem to shoot better in the PMAC (which makes sense, being familiar with the arena).

The home games against State and Bama are as close to must wins as it gets in order for LSU to have a good SEC season. I try to stay positive just like many (well really just a few) about the team, but alot of people seem to be assuming that LSU will go on the road and beat USC, Ole Miss and Aub. While that certainly isn't "murderers' row", it's tough to "expect" LSU to do something that just about every other team in the conf (not named Kentucky) has had trouble doing this year. I think they lose at least one of the remaining road games, which makes the next 2 home games almost "must wins"
