Out of the rhelm of reason, yes. Out of the rhelm of possibility, extremely unlikely.

I honestly don't expect you to beat us, much less by 17. And that's not a slam or sign of disrespect for your program. I honestly feel we are better on both sides of the ball. Notice I didn't mention special teams. Hopefully that doesn't influence the outcome.

Don't forget "undefeated in regulation".

I know what the word means, dipshit...I was asking "Huh?" as in "Why did you ask that?" Let me spell it out for you, Einstein...I'm not making any predictions. Read my post directly yours where I said "I'm not saying it'll happen, nor that it's likely...". I'm asking you why you feel there's no way that we could beat LSU by 17. If your reply contains the word "speed" in it, you're taking a vacation...

Chill. There's no need to resort to name calling. I mistakenly quoted your post instead of the one I should have. An error on my part.

And in my response to your question, you will notice that I did not use the s word. :biggrin:

I have zero problems with an LSU fan feeling confident about their chances, feeling their team is the better team, and even expecting to win. I just don't see why any objective LSU fan thinks it's "extremely unlikely" for OSU to win by 17.

Keep in mind that aside from our gaff against Illinois, our defense has been absolutely stellar, and still is ranked #1 in total defense (by a ton), #1 in scoring defense (by two tons), #1 in pass defense (by a good amount), and #3 in rushing defense. Not counting the 28 points we gave up to Illinois, we gave up 17 points on defense only once all season. If Tennessee can hold your offense to 13 points at your place in the SEC title game, I don't see why it's so unlikely why we can't at least do the same, if not better.

And while your defense is also highly ranked (#3 total, #20 scoring--skewed by a pair of OT games, #9 passing, and #14 rushing) you gave up, in regulation, 27 points to Kentucky, 34 to Alabama, and 28 to Arkansas. Forgive me if I don't think it's impossible for us to at least match the lowest of those three totals. If we take the rough average of those three scores--which is 30--and use the same offensive total you had against Tennessee (13), there's your 17-point margin right there (30-13).

While not probable, it's quite within the rhelm of reason...

You need not tell Mili to chill. Any one of us who have known him for over 5 years now could tell you that you have yet to raise his blood pressure. When you do, you'll know. Don't go posting quotes from him in a vain attempt to prove that he's upset: He posts like that when he's in a good mood.

If we put the ball on the ground 4 or 5 times and throw 4 or 5 picks, then yes it is possible you will win by 17.

The last over/under I saw was 51. If I was a betting man, I'd bet the under. I look for the margin of victory to be 4 points.

Now you're getting really stupid. You'd have to commit 8-10 turnovers for us to possibly win by 17? Funny, you only turned the ball over twice against Tennessee and were trailing 14-13 in the fourth quarter. Tell you what, if you turn the ball over even six times you'll get blown out. Same would happen to us if we did.
