Need Talent. Apply Within.

Finally, it's over. We all knew before the season started that State would be 2-4 after the first six games. At least we hoped. We hoped we wouldn't be 1-5, or 0-6. No one really thought we'd be 3-3 or better, so why all the fuss?

Any intelligent fan can tell this team is well coached. Players are in position to make plays, to often they are just not good enough to make them. We need more talent on campus and we need the talent we have to grow up.

Norwood. Another big play, another injury. Hopefully the next two weeks will allow him to heal fully before this stretch run. He only needs a little over 300 yards to be the all time rushing leader at State. And with UH, UK, and UM still on the schedule, barring injury, that shouldn't be a problem.

Anyone else notice how well Dockery played on Saturday? It seemed liked he was in on almost every hit, got a interception and spent a lot of the day in the backfield.

Five games left. Houston. Kentucky. Alabama. Arkansas. Mississippi.

I like our chances in four of those five games. Win four, we go bowling. Win three, the season is a success. Win two, eh. Win one or less, it will be a long off-season.
