how can the marker be at the 14.5 when it starts at the 25.
Because the announcer is an idiot.
Math was not his specialty.
SEC!

We are better than last year.........but that may not be enough to get to 6 wins in the loaded P12 this year
Clean up even half of those mistakes and we'll do just fine in the PAC this year

No moral victories in year 3. We need to start winning games like this. JDL played terrible but was always courageous and resilient. We are the 1st PAC school to lose this year.

Yea right call but damn that was close.
A game of inches.........If TMac keeps his foot 6 inches closer to the field of play we win the game.

Like the fight. Hate how flat we came out. Lucky the site wasn't 24 - 0 at half. Could've been 20 - 7 had MSU kicked on the first drive, and connected on the FG miss. Much different game if this happens, and why I say always take the points in the 1st half.
Still not quite ready for big boy football. Much closer, but not quite ready. Not enough push from the O-line and gave up too many big plays, especially after missed tackles. Mistakes we can't make against good teams.

Really not such a thing as a good loss, but this result should demonstrate to our guys that if they execute and play well, they can compete with most teams
Seems like our D played pretty damn well.
I think Miss St is a good team and they're certainly loaded up with senior veterans.
Geez, that many turnovers and we still took em to overtime in their house!

We had more yards, more first downs, less penalties, and almost triple the time of possession. If we even had 3 turnovers instead of 5 we win this game.

Jayden de Laura may be a talented athlete but he has never been known for his good decision making - on the field nor off.

Turnovers did us in. Plain and simple.
Impressed by the improvement in our D but unfortunately we got pushed around too much at the line of scrimmage.
JDL - both hated and loved his decisions. When the picket breaks down he can wow you or make you scratch your head. Like his last interception when we were driving nicely and had a first down and he forced the next pass (when he had a clear running lane to pick up positive yards) which got deflected.
