    Why is it that every other SEC school on their SEC Network takeover day...

    Is showing old classic football wins, etc, and we are showing the Belk Bowl tomorrow night in prime time. Are you kidding me? Last night FL vs. FSU in '97 Sugar bowl, tonight UGA vs. FL in 1980, and Hershall Walker in Sugar Bowl vs. Notre Dame, and we get last year's Belk Bowl. I hope we didn't choose this stuff, because I can name several better wins than that, just from 2014.

    We should have the Great Eight win to get to the Final Four on there.

    I hear you, thinking the same thing. I think they pick it, doubt we have anything to do with it. Probably is determined by some people who have no idea about what we'd like to see, and what they can easily get a hold of and put on.

    We should be showing the Thurs night game vs. FL in early '90's when Shane Matthews got taken out of the Heisman race. Michael Davis please.

    This post brought a tear to my eye. Might have been my freshman year in the student section. Freshman or sophomore year so it was 91 or 92. Great game I'll never forget. I threw milk bone dog biscuits at Matthews all night. I am still shocked I didn't get arrested that night. Security took my cowbell.
    Don't tell my kids!

    Everything we are showing is from the last school year. That is by design.

    It was fall of '92 - I was a sophomore too. I stayed out all night and chugged a Beast Lite then walked into my 8:00 German lab like a boss.

    I was disappointed with the lineup. Give me the kick pick, the Snow Bowl, or beating Auburn on any of those great occasions.
    Death penalty or bust!!!***

    Pretty crappy lineup if you ask me by whomever picked it out. Show the CWS vs. Oregon State, the 1999 Egg Bowl, and the 1996 elite 8.


    The only thing worth watching is the baseball game vs Arkansas. I wish they would show 1980 Alabama with Jack calling the game. That would be awesome!

    The decision of the lineup was obviously made by people who don't care for MSU. Which is ESPN. Shocker.

    Well that explains volleyball and softball getting selected for the take over.

    We made the decision to show stuff just from last year. Overall the athletic department had one of its best years of all time.

    I still doubt we pick it. Heard an OM guy complaining that on their day one of the games they showed was an eggbowl loss, may have been 2009 but I'm not 100%. I didn't watch any of it so I have no idea if thst was true or not. But if it was true then there is NO WAY the school decides.
    And I just don't see us not picking some of the classics.
    I think SECN makes the call and they are just lazy when it comes to us.
