They return a decent amount on O, but their O was #111 in the country last year.

    I'm counting 4 returners on a D that was #76 mainly because of Patrick Willis. I think there are at least 3 conference games that will be tougher than our game with Ole Miss: BSU, Hawaii, SJSU...

    Freson, Nevada, and NMSU could easily be added to that list. Perhaps Ole Miss would be in the top half of the WAC...perhaps not.


    The more you people rag on Ole Miss, the more you will have to choke on those words after they demolish us. We probably won't score a point on Ole Miss. Remember, this is the same team that nearly beat Alabama and LSU last year and all of a sudden that can't be La.Tech?? As Bill O'reilly would say " That is the most ridiculous item of the day".

    Who is this we you speak of? You are actually counting yourself as part of Tech now? Based on your negativity and ignorance of the program all I can assume is you are one of those Tech students who spends all his time watching LSU.

    But yes Ole Miss had some close games last year. I can play that game to. This Tech team is built on some guys that beat Fresno at Fresno 2 years ago that almost beat USC...that almost beat Texas in the national title game. Come on....seriously. JL also made a comment that Ole Miss just lost their best defensive player along with several of those starters that almost beat Bama (who gives a crap anymore) and EBRCP. If you think Ole Miss did anything last year that isn't due to Willis then you are smoking something.

    Persnickety, you are way too young to be so cynical. All gloom and doom. Try looking up for a change and say something positive. I am starting to wonder why in the world you are at Tech. You seem to despise it so...

    Re: Foolishly early football poll

    Though the dogs of the past have suffered "let downs" after big wins, I do not believe that such psycological traits of our past will find a place under Dooley's regime. Again, look at the two games Ole Miss plays before they play us - Florida and Georgia. It is hard for me to believe that Ole Miss will win either of these games much less come through without several injuries. It appears to me that we are going to be playing Ole Miss at a perfect point in the schedule to pull out a win. Either way, I will be there. My only concern is SEC officials. However, if the WAC football officials are anything like the WAC basketball officials, we may be better off with SEC officials. Having SEC officials did not seem to be to bad for us against Alabama.

    i said 12-0 but im thinkin more along the lines of 7-5.
    Either way, we need to hand-off to Thomas Graham some more. If you ever tried tackling an 18-wheeler you would know what I am talking about

    actually, that was my impression of bobby ray tell in high school (in my first ever high school jamboree). he looked like he was going to run over me at full speed, but blew right by while i was still bracing for impact. so yes, i know what you're talking about. if thomas graham can make d1a defenders look like 10th-graders in their first ever high school jamboree, then we need to hand it off to him on every odd down!

    You are probably correct. But it all depends on how you look at it. Will they be down and out and ready to lay down when Tech comes to town or will they be hungrier for a win knowing that wins will be few and far in between this season?? Also, it doesnt matter what Ole Miss does, a Tech team that was pathetic on offense still has to go into Oxford and beat them. I love all of the confidence you guys have in our team, but just ask Dooley how easy it'll be in Oxford. His answer will be very different from you guys. He knows Ole Miss better than anybody.

    do you think dooley would say we have no chance to win (even if you could get an honest answer out of a coach about something like that)?
