00:00All right, we have a missed opportunity here because the 12 o'clock game is going to start

00:06in Stark Vegas.

00:07This should be 3.30.

00:08We should be bringing back Verne Lundquist and Gary Danielson together in the booth to

00:12watch this game because Florida, yeah, exactly.

00:15If they take a loss, Billy Napier, who knows if he's coming back to town or even making

00:20it to the tournament.

00:21Mississippi State, fresh off of getting destroyed, not by USC, not by Alabama, not by Auburn,

00:27by a Mac team in Toledo in their own building, 6.5 point favorite for Florida, 58 total here.

00:34What gives?

00:35Florida or Mississippi State?

00:37My goodness, what a titanic battle here.

00:39Yeah, and it's a good thing you used the word titanic because one of these ships is absolutely

00:44stinking after this game is over.

00:46I mean, like, forgive the graphic, but this just feels like, you know, both of these teams

00:51are sitting there with a gun to the back of their head and whichever one loses, the bullets

00:54going to get fired.

00:55It's going to be over.

00:56Right?

00:58Oh my goodness.

00:59I mean, it's the only thing between and Billy Napier.

01:04It's just like none of this ends up well.

01:06Someone's going to get blood at the end of this thing here.

01:09Here's the rub though.

01:10I mean, Mississippi State, the fact that they are an underdog at home here, that Florida's

01:17laying six points, despite the variety of Legion and litany of problems that they have

01:23across the board, Mississippi State is Owen five against the number at home off a home

01:29game and they are Owen nine against the spread as dogs when coming off a double-digit loss.

01:35I mean, oh, by the way, Mississippi State has on deck, Georgia, Texas, a and M and Texas

01:41waiting for them.

01:42They don't win now.

01:45This could be a winless season, right?

01:47Like in the, like a winless sec season, if they don't get this game, they are in a world

01:53of trouble.

01:54I think, you know, the, the, the, the Noel is hitting for Billy Napier that at some point

01:58in time, the ax is going to fall and he's going to be gone, but he can at least buy

02:01himself a stay of execution here by winning a game against a bad Mississippi State team

02:07that in reality, maybe one of the most 30 teams in the country.

02:10And that's tough to say for an sec team.
