sleepy dawg good post. MSU only have 2 sports we can seriously have chance to win a national championship-Track, where with 10 to 12 good athletes you can accomplish and Baseball. We were close last year in Baseball. I stated this about 3 years ago. We can only hope for 7/5-8/4 seasons each year that will sell out Davis Wade each year and a bowl trip each year. This will keep our coffers with money that is needed to operate our athletic department. I feel we should be happy and content with this.

I think a lot of you guys are way off on this. Put them in the SEC, yes they would immediately have a season like us (sort of like Missouri did). But given an adjustment period, they would start to do better than us on a yearly basis. I am looking at their schedule last year, and we would absolutely NOT run the table like they did (not even close actually). They are just better suited and more comfortable for the type of football they play now against a consistent schedule, and once they went up against Bama with a month to prepare it was no contest, but so was LSU the previous season.
Say what you want, but ND, as much as people hate them, isn't just god awful.
