Man,this state game is going to tell us so much that I’m almost scared to watch it.

You can say the title is hyperbole,but it’s not for me. I will pretty much know where we are as a program after this game and most of the people who are realist will too.
Just think of what we have here ok. We have a Mississippi state team that isn’t good. I mean, they aren’t a good team, we know this about them. They lost to Memphis who gave up 50 to Arkansas state. They should have lost to tech and they had hell scoring on nc state.
Last year was such a weird year with the new defense being implemented on zoom calls and shite like that. We didn’t even have a zone defense ready for the start of last year. We also lost a ton, but it was really like a 7-5 type year, we know we would have won two of the three games we didn’t get to play and who knows what the bowl game would have been and if we would have won that or not. Texas would have beat us at the beginning of the year though.
So my point is that we had a down year but it was expected somewhat especially with bo not having our d ready.
Saturday will tell us if we have a d coordinator that is capable of watching last years film ,seeing what we did wrong,and coming up with a gameplan to fix what was wrong with the gameplan last year. I say this because we know that leach won’t change his plan , he will stand there and make a mark on that tiny little flash card every time he runs one of his 5 plays and just hope we don’t change anything from last year.
Dudes got 5 plays for zone and 5 plays for man lol
The scary thing is that if we go there and run our same man coverage from last year and get beat pretty bad, or at all really , then we will already know that we’re trending down, for sure this time, and that daronte isn’t the guy. That goes for the man in charge as well
It’s incredibly important to win this game. It could literally be the most important game of coach os his career , job security wise

Only in that if he loses he is done here. Winning this simply gets him to the next test this season. Not sure I'd call this one the most important besides it being next in the schedule.

LSU obviously isn’t a national contender this year but this game can help change the direction of the year and the program. You win this and beat a solid auburn team, you have a lot of build on. You lose to a bad State team and the whole ship sinks

State is the worst sec west team. If we lose, we will likely be in that spot. If we win, we won’t be.
So at least we’ll know that.

A loss and he is done quickly. A close high scoring win and it probably means the same season as last year. A blowout could mean great things. I’m very nervous, and I don’t have high hopes

I believe Ice Cube once had some good advice on what to do if you’re scared

Instead of that lengthy post that no one will read, you could have just stated it’s Survival Saturday for LSU and our head coach.

Good thing we have Stingley healthy on one side and a more experienced Ricks on the other side. So I will be willing to bet, Miss. State does NOT throw for over 600 yards Saturday.

If LSU loses back to back years to a bad Miss State team then Ed O needs to start packing his bags
Think this Game will get Ed O's coaching seat cooler or will start the fire to remove him.

If the UCLA loss paralleled the loss to Wisconsin in 2016, then this could be Orgeron's Auburn game in 2016.
Les was given the benefit of the doubt going into 2016 that he would fix things following a disappointing 2015 season in which he was almost fired. That optimism was dashed vs. Wisconsin when it was clear he had not changed at all from 2015. He then went to Auburn and lost in a quintessential Les Miles game. His team had multiple opportunities to either get buried or bury the opponent throughout the game only to get to a 4th quarter nail biter. After giving up the lead late, his team responded with a great do or die drive only for it to devolve into chaos at the end with the difference between winning and losing resting on the razor's edge. After that, it was confirmed Les was NEVER going to change and LSU decided to move on.
Perhaps to a lesser extent, if LSU gets shredded on defense like they did vs. State in the opener last season it will confirm O is unable to fix the issues and the time to move on is near (even though I don't think he would be fired after a loss).
On the other hand, a win would show at least SOME degree of progress from last season going into a big month of October and give LSU some hope that this could be more like the 2017 season when LSU unexpectedly beat Florida and Auburn after getting smashed by MSU and losing to Troy.

I think LSU beats state fairly convincingly. I know state was terrible last year and won but they are still really bad and I think LSU has improved enough on defense to win. I think future sec games will tell Us how far they’ve come

You know what’s coming. Extreme disappointment.

I don't expect it to tell me anything I don't already know. LSU could win by 14 and I'd still have the same feeling about this team.

Last year, LSU literally had no defensive backs available. It was an absolute crazy situation. I don't think last year's game is meaningful at all.

Based on their 3 games, they look a little better than cmu.
No need to stress out. I see us scoring over 40.

I am glad it is on at 11 to get it over with quicker one way or the other.
