I'm about to cry over the number of "experts" picking Moo State

Seriously, I'm welling up. If enough of them pick the grinders, there's no way LSU can win, right?

If they keep picking them every year, eventually they will be right

well, if EVER there was a year this would be the one imo...

Not really.
@MSU, possibly, but not in TS.

It makes us the underdog. You hear that, Team?

Considering how long it's been since they've been a factor in the SEC, they're pretty much OOC.
And you know how that always goes...

Said best by JPLSU1981 right here:

Personally, I think it's an awful time to catch LSU.
If MissSt wants to end this streak, it's not going to be in DeathValley, LSU's SEC opener, at night, the week before we play cupcake NewMexicoState.
For them to end the streak, it's going to have to be an 11am kickoff, probably in Starkville, the week before we play Florida or Auburn....something along those lines where LSU "looks past" Miss St.
The way things are set up this year, LSU is definitely not "looking past" MissSt. All the people giving MissSt a chance actually just plays into the hands of LSU ... LSU will be ready, and really the only chance IMO that MissSt ever has of beating LSU is for LSU to not be ready.
As per the OP, good post. To this day I still believe the Tenn and MissSt overtime games in 2000 are the two games that turned this program around. And you are definitely correct, MissSt was a solid team at the time, winning over MissSt was definitely a "quality" win.

It's like, the experts WANT to see Miss. State finally field a good team.

Good point by JP. We're neither coming off of nor looking ahead to a tough opponent, so any potential traps aren't in effect, especially at home. I'd feel a lot more nervous in Starkville, but not Saturday night in Death Valley.

Mississippi State is better than what they were last year. They are not better than Wisconsin. They are not better than LSU. They will come in and fight hard. But in the end, they are what they are. Losers! They will be hard pressed to beat any other team in the SEC West. The talent differential will hold them back and the later in the season it gets, the more they will wear down.

Was at both and man they were both awesome games. You could feel the crowd willing the team to pull it out. I was 14 and already hooked but those games took my passion for LSU football to the next level.

Everyone is playing up the "this is the year" deal. Only based off thier experience and our lack of it
Posted on 9/18/14 at 11:45 am to High C
Even John Bond can't win this game for the grinders.
Posted on 9/18/14 at 11:47 am to High C
It's amazing how many people jump on bandwagons and make trendy picks. Common sense tells the average person that MSU has very little chance of winning. But "experts" want to pretend to be ITK, so they make the trendy pick and then justify it to themselves.

Did MooState bring in the VooDoo Queens from the Caribbean?
Did fans have midnight rituals cleansing the 'Curse' from the team?
Did the SEC change the time and place to Starksville at 2:00 pm?
If the answer to these three question is "yes"---there is a slight chance of the Dawgs taking the game,

my hope is that as long as they stay consistent and call state a good team before the game, if LSU wins they'll hopefully call it a quality win for LSU.
but somehow if we win, i think all the talk about state is going to go away and it won't meant anything that we beat them.

I really think we will blow them out. The team is going to be pumped to play an SEC team. The oline has heard they aren't living up to the hype. I think it could get ugly. I am thinking Va. Tech ugly.
