Concur for the most part, but at this point I don't think Misery is a toss up.
Here’s one more prediction:
Let the EKU game be reasonably close, and SPS will be like:
Let the EKU game be reasonably close, and SPS will be like:
You don’t think we can beat a team at home that we beat last year on the road in spite of being terrible or go 3-1/4-0 against a not particularly good nonconference schedule?
Those five games consist of:
An FCS team
A G5 team that went 3-9 last year
Two P5 teams that won 4 games or fewer last yesr
A MAC team that lost its entire offense
No, it’s not asking much to go 4-1 in that stretch.
If that game is within 30 points, we’re in big troubleHere’s one more prediction:
Let the EKU game be reasonably close, and SPS will be like:
When was the last time we even had a close game against an FCS? Samford 2016? Before that I think you have to go back to the Maine… we just don’t have many close FCS games in recent history.
That same team beat #4 aTm. And went on to become the foundation of some of the most talented teams of our era. Of course, we wasted it.
Hopefully we can pull it off. That being said there is absolutely no evidence based case for optimism.
Yeah. He didnt think that one through. Missouri is pre- season top 10. They'll beat us like a drum. Pittman will be fighting for his life at Ark, so that game will be tough for us, too.
lol I just gave you an evidence based case. We’ve got issues but the other teams I mentioned have bigger ones.
You don’t even know what your talking about L4.
You really haven’t done any research have you. Defenses isn’t going to be great but it will be about what we were last year with better DL play, and I really like our LBs and safety’s. The OL has potentially three NFL guys in Minor, Pounders and Bell, hell Reese has NFL size just has to put it together. I love love our WRs room and RB room. Qb is going to surprise some people Shapen is a better athlete and has a better arm than what we had last fours years. . This isn’t a total rebuild like you assume.
So we added people from the portal to start oh umm just like I don’t know every single SEC team … and to your lame brain that constitutes a total rebuild. I mean I kinda knew that you were ignorant before but these takes you have in two threads kinda confirms it.
Here is what your mind set is along with Pat and 85….a SEC teams adds WR DL and OL help from portal to start and L4 says.. that team just got better they are about to win 9-10 games beat state by 20…. Now State added WR OL DL help from portal oh it’s a Total rebuild…. You are so damn wrong and negative
Well, when you only have two starters back, that is usually considered a total rebuild.
Mississippi brought in 1 5* and 7 4* transfers. We brought in 1 4* and a bunch of 3*. We actually have the lowest transfer portal class in the SEC, while they have the #1 ranked class in the country. But yeah, we brought in some guys and they brought in some guys, so it's all the same. **
All this star talk coming from a fanbase that should have learned about the star system scam many many moons ago. You know the former quarterback and current starting quarterback for the cowboys was a 2 star with one other offer from ut Martin, but they continue to think it’s all about 10th grade stars instead of development….and I’d bet development is exactly what’s been going on behind your hard-headed prying eyes.
Stars aren’t everything, but it’s a fact if you recruit a lot of highly ranked players, you’re almost always going to be better than a team that recruits lowly ranked players. For every Dak Prescott, there’s thousands of 2* players you never heard of.
as for development, that’s much less important in todays constant transfer portal world, especially for transfers in. You simply can’t do much development in 6 months.
I hope I’m wrong, but this looks like a 5-win season, +/- 1 win.
if you truly believe that, then you should shove in all your chips and bet against Dabo Sweeney at Clemson. Since they don’t use the transfer portal and are all in on development.
Yeah. Dabo is screwed if he doesn’t change his way of doing things. Projected 15th with 4 losses by FPI. That’s a long way from his prime times.
The most overrated stat with the portal is returning starters. Again weak argument shocker L4 weak take
And several of those star transfers weren’t retained from their previous school and are injured to the point two may not be available first games. But sure. Let’s compare
I hope you are right. For what’s it’s worth, FPI projects them at #16 and 8-4. They won’t be happy with that return on their investment.
There is some issues going on up there I’ll leave it at that
If you have to hit the portal hard then that is a big rebuild by definition. Oh, and our portal class doesn't look to be that great. That we needed to bring it in tells you about all you need to know.
I know we won't be good this year, but starting 3-0 against our schedule is not that far-fetched, even for a pretty bad team. Now, 2-1 is pretty likely too, and 1-2 isn't out of the question. But it's not like 3-0 would take some monumental feat.
Tsun has the #1 ranked class in the country? What poll and what Yr? Does #247 combine transfers with H.S. Seniors?
See link. This is transfer class only.

Thanks. They are #1 only by quantity not quality though. Prime Time's doing his thing again too and it crashed and burned last year after a brief good start. Figuring out how to juggle all these new players in a short period of time can be disastrous or it could work. We'll see soon.
Anyone who bets on potential outcomes from a first-year head coach has a much higher risk tolerance than I do. Any MSU fan who bets on us to do/not do anything in particular needs to be evaluated. Our sports teams always find a way to defy hope, logic and reason...
Arent rumors still encouraged here especially if it's bad stuff on tsun? Spill it. Don't tease.
