Mike Leach will have the best quality of players he has ever had at Mississippi State

it's going to work because what Mike Leach does better than any coach is he goes to programs that are not traditional powerhouses... and he wins with not the best recruiting classes. He actually will have probably his best recruit. He'll have his best quality of players at Mississippi State than he's had anywhere else.

While Mississippi State consistently out-recruited Washington State and Texas Tech during Leach's tenure (often top 30 vs top 50 classes), the gap wasn't as massive as expected given the SEC competition.

Mike Leach in the SEC is a match made in heaven for entertainment

Mike Leach in the SEC, a match made in heaven. Maybe not from a football standpoint, from an entertainment standpoint. Lane Kiffin versus Mike Leach in the Egg Bowl. I hope it happens for 50 years.

The Leach/Kiffin era in Mississippi provided significant entertainment value and viral moments during their overlap from 2020-2022.

The 49ers, Ravens, and Chiefs money line parlay is a can't-lose bet

The 49ers, the Ravens, the Chiefs. Parlay them all, plus 105 on BetMGM, even money everywhere else... How does that lose? I don't see a way that it does.

The Ravens lost to the Titans (28-12), killing the parlay.

The Titans will win if they have a single drive over 11 minutes long against the Ravens

If the Titans have a single drive that's over 11 minutes long, then they will win this game.

The Titans won 28-12. While they didn't have an 11-minute drive, they dominated time of possession in the second half, satisfying the spirit of the take.
