We got Idaho, arkie and Troy, in that order. That's our next 3 games.

Does Troy count towards a bowl since we beat SEMO? Or are one of them actually a FBS school?

I think Troy counts if I'm not wrong, they're in the Sun Belt Conference.

OK, then they both should both count towards bowl eligibility. You can have one FCS win, but any more past that doesn't count towards bowl games.

I like the optimism.. Please rub some off on me..
I still think we'll win out after LSU, and we could get lucky and bet them. Last night was hard, long trip back to Southaven. Couldn't help but get mad about the no calls. A&M is good enough, they don't need any help.

Do you guys have anymore of that cool aid? I'm thirsty!

Except LSU...

LSU will be playing the eighth of nine straight. There is no way we struggle with Idaho.

LSU is absolutely a winnable game, and I expect to win.

That said, 9-3 for the season, and a fine season at that

If we beat LSU, every argument about rebuilding and depth will be shot to hell. B/c it means we will have beaten a top ten team with our 2nd string defense. I just don't see it happening with all of the injuries.

Optomisim is a great thing to have......LSU is clicking on all cylinders right now.....offense is very very good, defense is finally putting it together the last 6 quarters, I expect LSU to win, but Ole Miss always plays us tough.....especially at home.

I agree, if we don't get some D linemen back it's going to be tough to stop that running game. 270lb fullback in front of 230lb Hill is a scary thought.

But at least they are more stationary targets than Manziel. At least we can get a body on them and they won't score as quickly or hopefully as often.

True, but that beef could really wreak havoc against a line as anemic as ours. Their D isn't horrible either, but I think the home field advantage helps us win this game.

I'm just praying for no more injuries. We are way too banged up right now.
