Egg Bowl Game Thread

[Coursesuper]

He had to coach the EB. I believe that was the agreement with Carter. 11-1 they are in the playoffs even if Kiffen leaves.

Joe Judge coaching this game and we are up a TD or more and the OM players are deflated.

Exactly, he’s having to deal with a boatload of shit to leave.

[CaptainObvious]

stupid ass play calling on that drive typical lebby shit the bed coaching

12 games in and Lebby is still counting on his Offensive Line to run block and pass protect more than 2 plays straight!

[Coursesuper]

I’m wondering if he will be again.

If you have ever had and ankle injury like that it takes a long time.

[R2Dawg]

stupid ass play calling on that drive typical lebby shit the bed coaching

Yeah was not good. We are good at times and terrible at others.

[Thick]

We need cornerbacks!

[Brobi-wan]

17 this crew

[maroonmania]

Another freaking penalty!! They are making stuff up at this point.

[Bothrops]

Everyone of these refs are getting taken care of today

[Brobi-wan]

Ole Miss has had some BLATANT missed holding.

[Brobi-wan]

Their LT holding every down

[TrapGame]

Ole Miss has had some BLATANT missed holding.

And a blatant push off for a TD.

[Bothrops]

We need cornerbacks!

If we cant cover with the ones we have now, we never will.

[R2Dawg]

Game same story all year. O stalls, D gets tired or quits game over.

[Coursesuper]

We’re getting tired. So badly need quality depth on defense.

[Brobi-wan]

If we cant cover with the ones we have now, we never will.

Yep. Not a CB issue. DL issue

[Coursesuper]

If we cant cover with the ones we have now, we never will.

We have one. Need at least 3.

[Mjoelner34]

If we cant cover with the ones we have now, we never will.

We have 1 that can and I think they've only thrown at him once today. The others just play chase and tackle when they aren't holding.

[Maverick91]

These games make me seriously have a disgust for the ncaa and sec and all the media.

Leaving for commercial they should Lebby for half a second and then lane for 10

[TrapGame]

We’re getting tired.

Depth issues have killed us all season. Outside of our starters we got hardly anybody that provide quality depth.

It's gonna take $$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Remember Texas Tech's starting DL cost them $7mil. And they're good.

[R2Dawg]

We need cornerbacks!

They are hitting us in spots not just corner spots. Jones has locked down his side off field. Our other corners has been solid all year.

[Bothrops]

Even though KT is one dimensional, if we upgraded to an actual OT that couldn't block very good, he could be ripping of nice runs.

[R2Dawg]

We have 1 that can and I think they've only thrown at him once today. The others just play chase and tackle when they aren't holding.

Most of those PIs are not legit.

[Maroon Glasses]

I'm not taking up for the corners but it doesn't help when your d line can't get any pressure.

Our corners are losing the 1 on 1 battle everytime. We are lucky Wallace has dropped 3 or 4.

[Brobi-wan]

Due, play the 17 ball 4

[DawgFromOxford]

well 17 me that's going to do it

[EdwardDrayton]

I'd like to think Zac is ready to announce a top notch OC hire tomorrow.

[Thick]

Brumfield has been trash all day long!

[TrapGame]

I hate that hot yoga sum bitch.

[bulldawg28]

The DC is doing a terrible job with leaving these corners with no safety help.

[99jc]

no way to suger coat it our defense is shitty and so is our DC

[Brobi-wan]

I'd like to think Zac is ready to announce a top notch OC hire tomorrow.

We can pray

[Bothrops]

I'm not taking up for the corners but it doesn't help when your d line can't get any pressure.

Our corners are losing the 1 on 1 battle everytime. We are lucky Wallace has dropped 3 or 4.

The secondary was the best unit on the defense until a few games ago. They still may be the best unit, but they are definitely struggling lately.

[Mjoelner34]

Brumfield has been trash all day long!

Chambliss doing to him and Lanier the same thing Arch did. Looking for their number then throwing that way.

[DEDawg]

If we cant cover with the ones we have now, we never will.

How do you come to that conclusion? They are picking on Brumfield every drive. He's really bad out there today

[Coursesuper]

Brumfield has been trash all day long!

All year against quality. He’s a step slow. You notice they won’t even throw at 1.

[Thick]

They are hitting us in spots not just corner spots. Jones has locked down his side off field. Our other corners has been solid all year.

Brumfield?s been torched today, plus a few holding penalties.

[BankerDog]

#4 has been picked on all day. Corey Bell will be the first to not be retained followed by David Turner.

Time to bring Pernell and Taveze Calhoun home

[R2Dawg]

I'd like to think Zac is ready to announce a top notch OC hire tomorrow.

Me too; he has to force Lebby to fix something. Just wash, rinse repeat ain't gonna cut it.

[Coursesuper]

Depth issues have killed us all season. Outside of our starters we got hardly anybody that provide quality depth.

It's gonna take $$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Remember Texas Tech's starting DL cost them $7mil. And they're good.

Correct

[R2Dawg]

Brumfield?s been torched today, plus a few holding penalties.

Coverage was good on last two TDs, just great throw and catch. Can't blame CB for those last two.

[Mjoelner34]

The secondary was the best unit on the defense until a few games ago. They still may be the best unit, but they are definitely struggling lately.

It's because teams quit throwing at Jones and others are getting all of the attention now.

[BankerDog]

We can pray

Heard Kendall is being announced Monday. Along with Pernell McPhee coming to replace Turner and Taveze Calhoun to coach corners.

[99jc]

I believe Selmon will demand changes across the board

[Brobi-wan]

Oh well. Last time we have to see Lane in DWS wearing their colors

[TrapGame]

Hutzler has got to go. We need a good, experienced DC. Some good ones will be available soon. Pay them!

[EdwardDrayton]

Me too; he has to force Lebby to fix something. Just wash, rinse repeat ain't gonna cut it.

Not only that but what a way to move the media attention to something positive quickly.

[Brobi-wan]

Heard Kendall is being announced Monday. Along with Pernell McPhee coming to replace Turner and Taveze Calhoun to coach corners.

That would be HUGE

[CaptainObvious]

stupid ass play calling on that drive typical lebby shit the bed coaching

Look at the bright side. While our rivals are playing all those playoff games. Our entire staff can be out recruiting defensive players!

[Brobi-wan]

We had two drives we did not capitalize on that have led to this

[TrapGame]

Heard Kendall is being announced Monday. Along with Pernell McPhee coming to replace Turner and Taveze Calhoun to coach corners.

Don't **** with my emotions, Bank!!!

[R2Dawg]

Heard Kendall is being announced Monday. Along with Pernell McPhee coming to replace Turner and Taveze Calhoun to coach corners.

Are you serious?

What are McPhee and Calhoun doing now?

[DEDawg]

Coverage was good on last two TDs, just great throw and catch. Can't blame CB for those last two.

He never put his hand up until after the ball was caught on the TD. You absolutely blame the CB for that. He even got his head turned around and was in great position just bizzare not to get an arm up

[Mjoelner34]

Are you serious?

What are McPhee and Calhoun doing now?

Wiki says Big Pern is working with the edge rushers at Michigan.

[99jc]

I love KT

[Bothrops]

Heard Kendall is being announced Monday. Along with Pernell McPhee coming to replace Turner and Taveze Calhoun to coach corners.

Lol

[BankerDog]

Are you serious?

What are McPhee and Calhoun doing now?

McPhee is the outside LBs coach at Michigan. Calhoun is coaching CBs at USM and has them coached up pretty well.

[TrapGame]

Damn. That pass was beautiful.

[99jc]

Traore has not looked this good all year

[Coursesuper]

Heard Kendall is being announced Monday. Along with Pernell McPhee coming to replace Turner and Taveze Calhoun to coach corners.

I?m not gonna hold my breath on that one.

[Mjoelner34]

Traore has not looked this good all year

Yep. Even blocking his ass off today too.

[Brobi-wan]

Taylor can throw it

[TrapGame]

Kamario is gonna be a good one.

Damn.

[99jc]

now everyone knows why shapen should have set games ago

[maroonmania]

Hutzler has got to go. We need a good, experienced DC. Some good ones will be available soon. Pay them!

Hutzler definitely needs to go but agree, it doesn't do any good if we are just going to hire another unknown with no DC experience.

[Maverick91]

Heard Kendall is being announced Monday. Along with Pernell McPhee coming to replace Turner and Taveze Calhoun to coach corners.

As long as they can recruit

[Brobi-wan]

Guys, we’re going to be fine. Lane will be gone and we are going to beat them like a drum in Oxford next year. Book mark this comment

[R2Dawg]

McPhee is the outside LBs coach at Michigan. Calhoun is coaching CBs at USM and has them coached up pretty well.

Go get em.

[Matt3467]

It's been a long time since State has had a good RB. Unusual since up until Hill we've reloaded at RB basically for decades.

[EdwardDrayton]

Kamario is gonna be a good one.

Damn.

I still believe he can be the best we've ever had.

[Bothrops]

Can any of our OL guys bench press 300 pounds?

[Brobi-wan]

It's been a long time since State has had a good RB. Unusual since up until Hill we've reloaded at RB basically for decades.

He was a locker room prob, right?

[TrapGame]

Guys, we’re going to be fine. Lane will be gone and we are going to beat them like a drum in Oxford next year. Book mark this comment

Not when they get Saban to come out of retirement. ******

[R2Dawg]

now everyone knows why shapen should have set games ago

Yeah and Lebby looks like a fool for not using him more this year. He didn't have to start but dang this guy can win you games and we under used him, almost criminal.

[EdwardDrayton]

We need a top notch OC hire more than anything. Icing on the cake if he has a success history of developing QBs.

[Thick]

If we can surround KT with quality offensive line and good WR, he might break a lot of records

[R2Dawg]

I still believe he can be the best we've ever had.

I do agree with this. We need to keep him 3 more years and big things can happen.

[DEDawg]

lol where was the guy on here saying corners have been fine today

[EdwardDrayton]

Speed kills.

[Mjoelner34]

Did somebody say our DB's (save for 1) are ass?

[TrapGame]

**** this defense.

[maroonmania]

What a terrible attempt at a tackle by our DB.

[Brobi-wan]

Wow

[Ranchdawg]

Yeah and Lebby looks like a fool for not using him more this year. He didn't have to start but dang this guy can win you games and we under used him, almost criminal.

Totally agree! Absolutely criminal! Oh but we have played better than last year!

[HoopsDawg]

Why was our backup corner in?

[99jc]

Our DB and Hutzler need to be given one way tickets to HELL!

[EdwardDrayton]

We thought Lacy would be the one. Chambliss has destroyed us.

[Activated Alpha]

Please for the love of everything holy, let Lebby fire Hultz by the end of business day today

[Matt3467]

He was a locker room prob, right?

He was. He was the last really talented one we had imo.

[Bothrops]

If we can surround KT with quality offensive line and good WR, he might break a lot of records

We aren't going to do it.

[Brobi-wan]

Welp, we keeping Hutz after that? Be interesting

[EdwardDrayton]

Think their SEC average points is around 28. We had to hold that to have a chance. But then we shit the bed on offense too. Oy vey.

[BeardoMSU]

This sucks...

[TrapGame]

Upgrade the defensive staff. Upgrade DL/OL with good transfers. Get another speedy WR or two out of the portal.

And with KT starting next season we'd have a good shot at 8-9 games.

[State82]

It is difficult for a defense to be this decrepit

[Thick]

OM would have about 10 sacks today if Shapen would have played

[Bothrops]

4-8 next year?

[Activated Alpha]

Just keep in mind that Mullen won 3 straight on OM until they went all in with football and that was when he still stayed with us. Now that Kiffin is leaving (doubt it) maybe we can go on a run again

[TrapGame]

And now the announcers are saying "fix the defense".

That's being nice for "Get another DC. This one sucks."

[ZedFedder]

Got to get a new DC. If the D improves you have a chance to be okay next year.

[TrapGame]

4-8 next year?

No.

[R2Dawg]

OM would have about 10 sacks today if Shapen would have played

Yep instead KT has 100+ on ground

[TrapGame]

4th and 1. We didn't get it.

[EdwardDrayton]

This sucks...

Yep. We just didn't get it done in any facet that we needed. Disappointing to say the least.

[Brobi-wan]

Enjoy the swan song, scumbags. It’s over after today. You’ll be bounced in round 1

[R2Dawg]

2nd and 1 and we waste all three downs. Get an OC starting now.

[PGHBulldogBG]

I?m actually more annoyed that our team decided between midnight and 3 in the morning to be pulling 5th grade stunts like breaking into the locker room to steal Chambliss jersey and then our immature coach blaming it on kiffin. That confirms to me we have Joe Moorhead Jr running this program. No discipline and then the leader taking no accountability. Then we have an AD that didn?t even interview Cignetti when he was available during our coaching search. It?s all just a big disaster.

[Coursesuper]

No.

Damn, no wonder we struggle. We are a bunch of complete 17ing losers.

[TrapGame]

OM has had a stable program for five years.

[R2Dawg]

4th and 1. We didn't get it.

The entire OM D sold out on KT run. We wasted 3 downs to get one yard.

[99jc]

KT has 153 rushing yards

[EdwardDrayton]

4-8 next year?

Depends. It's in the AD's hands now.

[Brobi-wan]

2nd and 1 and we waste all three downs. Get an OC starting now.

We have seen this too often this year

[99jc]

OM has had a stable program for five years.

That will soon come to an end with freshy leaving!

[BankerDog]

Got to get a new DC. If the D improves you have a chance to be okay next year.

His agent is going to HAVE to do what Sexton did to Mullen and pair him with a good DC if he wants a bigger gig. Move Hutz to STC. We have him analysts to help. At the same time, though, we need the players. Our players aren?t SEC outside of a few. Our DL coach has always coached gap contain, hasn?t recruited well at all. Our CB coach..I don?t even know what he has done or recruited.

[DawgFromOxford]

Lebby better win 8 games next year. Tired of this

[R2Dawg]

KT has 153 rushing yards

He has gotten it done today.

[Maverick91]

If this pathetic showing doesn't wake up the movers and shakers then there's nothing we can do

[R2Dawg]

Lebby better win 8 games next year. Tired of this

6-7 wins next year or goodbye.

[EdwardDrayton]

KT has 153 rushing yards

Yeah. Much of the problem. We need him to be a 'Q'B not a 'R'B.

[Coursesuper]

One dimensional without saying one dimensional.

[R2Dawg]

If this pathetic showing doesn't wake up the movers and shakers then there's nothing we can do

Nothing will change. I bet Lebby brings everyone back.

[West Tn Dawg]

Now, if Taylor was our best chance to win, why did it take Lebby 4 or 5 games longer to figure it out than it did the rest of us? Pitiful!!

[99jc]

Now, if Taylor was our best chance to win, why did it take Lebby 4 or 5 games longer to figure it than it did the rest of us? Pitiful!!

Because he really is a dumbass

[R2Dawg]

One dimensional without saying one dimensional.

He has thrown for as many yards as Shapen has in several games and had some really good throws not caught too. Half his run yards were almost sacks not designed runs.

[maroonmania]

His agent is going to HAVE to do what Sexton did to Mullen and pair him with a good DC if he wants a bigger gig. Move Hutz to STC. We have him analysts to help. At the same time, though, we need the players. Our players aren?t SEC outside of a few. Our DL coach has always coached gap contain, hasn?t recruited well at all. Our CB coach..I don?t even know what he has done or recruited.

Well blountly, either of the analysts we have would make a better DC than what we currently have.

We have to fire someone on offense we are capped out staff numbers wise.

[Ranchdawg]

I do not like my university looking really bad vs to our in state rival. Getting repeatedly soundly beaten by them does not sit well with me at all.
FIX IT OR GET THE HELL OUT!

[EdwardDrayton]

Now, if Taylor was our best chance to win, why did it take Lebby 4 or 5 games longer to figure it out than it did the rest of us? Pitiful!!

Lebby had two weeks to get him better prepared. It wasn't enough time.

[R2Dawg]

Welp this game was more like Croom 08. We got to do something.

[R2Dawg]

I do not like my university looking really bad vs to our in state rival. Getting repeatedly soundly beaten by them does not sit well with me at all.

Agree, I'm sick of this.

[ZedFedder]

At least we have basketball***

[DawgFromOxford]

Too many empty drives on offense. Secondary getting embarrassed 3 out of 4 quarters

I saw this coming and I?m still pissed

[EdwardDrayton]

He has thrown for as many yards as Shapen has in several games and had some really good throws not caught too. Half his run yards were almost sacks not designed runs.

Not a strong counter there R2! :) Not saying KT wasn't the right play; I would've done the same. KT just needs some more experience. And Lebby needs an OC.

[EdwardDrayton]

At least we have basketball***

Oh that's just below the belt.

[PGHBulldogBG]

My god, are you that 17ing stupid? That didn’t happen, it’s all just of bullshit. We are a gullible lot.

Whether it happened or not, Lebbys response was childish and the 2nd part of my statement about Selmon and Cignetti is 100 percent true. I found out he was never interviewed or considered

[Maroon Glasses]

One dimensional without saying one dimensional.

Man, really? It was the kids first start. As a freshman. Against the #7 team in the country who only loss to #4 Georgia. Sure he has work to do. But what he was able to do today was awesome. Over 300 yards of total offense and 2 td's. His only turnover was a fluke that only happens to us.

[EdwardDrayton]

Kiffen still throwing the ball. What a shithead.

[R2Dawg]

Yep he had an incredible day for freshman.

[Ranchdawg]

Wow I just saw one of our defensive linemen pull back from pass rush and slow jog trailing the play down the field. While other defensive linemen were still engaged in pass rush. Are you kidding me! Geesh!

[PGHBulldogBG]

KT is not to blame at all he had a great game and I think we beat UF and TX with him and get to 7-5

[Mjoelner34]

Rank our needs 1 through 6. I did not put head coach on there because he isn't going anywhere this year. Nor did I put skill position players on there. Here are mine:

1. DC
2. OL
3. DL
4. DB
5. OC
6. LB

Easy there fella. That wasn't a knock on KT. We just needed a more balanced offense to be able to score more than thirty points. Had to have the points to win.

[R2Dawg]

Kiffen still throwing the ball. What a shithead.

The biggest. He has to leave for things to turn around for MSU. That needs to start tonight.

[BankerDog]

We either wake up and start going all in or we will be left in dust. It?s now or never. It?s that simple. We have been cheap too long.

KT had a couple bad throws would have been TDs but Shapen does that every game. The int when we were driving to score was a fluke. KT will have close to 200/200 at game end. I'll take that one dimensional all day.

[Coursesuper]

Whether it happened or not, Lebbys response was childish and the 2nd part of my statement about Selmon and Cignetti is 100 percent true. I found out he was never interviewed or considered

It’s called PR and setting the conversation in your favor. The guy knows he’s going to have the media in his face all day and has to pull some bullshit to get them to not talk about him leaving and they and most here eat it up hook line and sinker. It’s happening everyday, most just don’t know how that game is played.

[R2Dawg]

Damn and KT gets hurt on last play. Most snake bit program in NCAA history.

[SPMT]

If we had Shapen in we still wouldn?t have a balanced offense. We were behind the entire game.

Thankfully we had KT and his legs, if not we have had very little rushing yards at all.

[Maroon Glasses]

One thing for sure... People seen KT today. They seen the potential and what he did in his first start as freshman.

Teams WILL be calling. Don't think Lane won't be one of them. Our administration better be ready to drop their nuts and pay up.

[EdwardDrayton]

Their fans are in for a rude awakening in the playoff.

[Brobi-wan]

He’s gone. Road to recovery begins next year.

[EdwardDrayton]

A great opportunity now for Zac to move the attention back to us quickly and lay the groundwork for an improved next season.

[Coursesuper]

Damn and KT gets hurt on last play. Most snake bit program in NCAA history.

No, we are a product of ourselves. That is just a gawddamn fact. We put ourselves in this situation through infighting and back biting each other over comparative scraps. We are reaping exactly what we have sown for years. One day you 17ers are going to figure out we all of us are msu and we make it go or not. Sadly I doubt we ever figure that out.

[DawgFromOxford]

For as much as Keenum talks about beating OM, he ought to step down as he?s ultimately the one that has us in this hole. Dudes time has passed

[Doggie_Style]

Because he really is a dumbass

We continue to hire block-heads..... we can't help ourselves.

[CaptainObvious]

stupid ass play calling on that drive typical lebby shit the bed coaching

Jeff Lebby will never beat Ole Miss or LSU or Florida or Alabama or Texas or Georgia or Oklahoma or A&M as MSU Head Coach!

Some of these dudes spent the first few pages of the thread hating on 34 for Taylor starting more than they hated on OM

[Brobi-wan]

For as much as Keenum talks about beating OM, he ought to step down as he?s ultimately the one that has us in this hole. Dudes time has passed

Keenum just cares about getting his kids through college. His time has long passed. Should’ve been gone after the BS with Arnett and waiting to hire an AD

[EdwardDrayton]

Easy Course. We gotcha brother. We're all on this train together and we're gonna get back where we belong. Let today be the beginning.

[HoopsDawg]

Very concerned with the way Lebby managed the middle 8. Very concerned.

[Ranchdawg]

What I want to hear in the next couple of weeks is a press conference called by Selmon and Lebby. I want them to completely diagram how they plan on fixing this crap feast. If they don’t then they have completely lost me as a fan of this football team. Sick of this crap!

Don?t get your hopes up on a press conference. But we better have a staff overhaul by Monday

[EdwardDrayton]

For as much as Keenum talks about beating OM, he ought to step down as he?s ultimately the one that has us in this hole. Dudes time has passed

He's an academic. He just needs to stay in his lane.

[Ranchdawg]

Why not have my hopes up? There are bunch of us alums/fans that feel the same. They are beyond this cluster f&*#.

[Doggie_Style]

Keenum just cares about getting his kids through college. His time has long passed. Should’ve been gone after the BS with Arnett and waiting to hire an AD

Keenum is just a woke glad hander that has overstayed his welcome. There isn't one significant improvement to the University under his watch. Both academics and athletics are in trouble. This should be his last year but we don't have the balls to do anything...

[EdwardDrayton]

Jeff Lebby will never beat Ole Miss or LSU or Florida or Alabama or Texas or Georgia or Oklahoma or A&M as MSU Head Coach!

A little premature on that take but he definitely needs an OC.

[Coursesuper]

Keenum just cares about getting his kids through college. His time has long passed. Should’ve been gone after the BS with Arnett and waiting to hire an AD

No, again he’s ultimately the guy at the top of the administration but he got back stabbed on the decision that put us in this situation. We have to thank our own for this shit show.

[Brobi-wan]

No, again he’s ultimately the guy at the top of the administration but he got back stabbed on the decision that put us in this situation. We have to thank our own for this shit show.

I’ll take your word for it. You’re undoubtedly more well connected than I am

Mark likes power. He took $4MM a year from athletic department to academic side. He is at fault the most here. He couldn?t be involved w/ GB or SS but damn sure could meddle with Cohen.

Until we decide to go all in on football you?ll get same damn results. Our fan base would rather be in CWS rather than be good in football consistently. And look-our baseball will have the best roster in the SEC this year. I just hope it?s worth being consistently good in that sport and rolling dice hoping to be really good every 3/4 years with football and basketball.

Just time to decide how bad we wanna win.

[Coursesuper]

I’ll take your word for it. You’re undoubtedly more well connected than I am

I do know how that one went down and it was shitty. And very very missipy tate.

[Activated Alpha]

Some of these dudes spent the first few pages of the thread hating on 34 for Taylor starting more than they hated on OM

Both can be true at the same time. We can give him shite all day long, every ****ing day of the week, every ****ing day of the year. Between his stubborn ass not admitting he was wrong about our baseball program and BOC to now football with Taylor. OM and C34 have things in common. They?re both full of themselves and they both full of shit

I would rather be middle pack SEC in baseball and compete at a high level in football than have the best baseball roster. Nobody cares about BB but us and the nerds at Vandy. Now the nerds are whipping our a$$ too.

A little disingenuous take here. We got the football coach 'we' wanted. Now it's just wait and see if it works out. IMHO, he's gonna need a sidekick to ensure he's successful.

[parabrave]

A little premature on that take but he definitely needs an OC.

He needs his Charlie Weiss.

And that's why Keenum ran off Cohen.

As I said earlier today, his agent is going to have do for him what Sexton did for Mullen; pair him with a really good DC. We have to get ride of Bell and Turner. Turner was brought back that same group of boosters who wanted Arnett because he could ?recruit?. Turner hadn?t recruited worth a damn in three years and his ?gap control? coaching is bs. Shame that Trevion Williams and Dink are the same guys now then when they showed up. We need to invest heavily with both lines and DBs and that second group of WRs.

Kennedy did us no favors and loadholt had to make chicken salad out of chicken shit.

You’re not wrong here. We have to invest big money at the line of scrimmage. It’s hard to do much getting beat at the point.

[TrapGame]

If we do not go all in on football DWS will be a ghost town for a long time. It is pretty sad when we added those seats to the stadium just to keep them empty now.

It seemed to be VERY evident today on the DL side. Think we give Hutz a chance to shore that up. We could use a boost on the OL too of course but think I'd like the funds to go OC as a first priority.

[DownwardDawg]

Too many empty drives on offense. Secondary getting embarrassed 3 out of 4 quarters

I saw this coming and I?m still pissed

Yes. We all knew this was coming and we're all pissed.

We have to totally turn over those rooms. We need bodies that can play and a least two deep on both lines. I’m not sure we had a starter on either line that would start for another team in our league out there today.

We have never consistently competed at a high level in football in the history of the school so you can just give that dream up now. We have a season every now and then where we compete well but it never seems to last. One of the reasons we are able to compete at a high level in baseball consistently is that we were able to build a tradition in that sport before most schools did begin to care. And there are plenty in the SEC that care about baseball so its ridiculous to say nobody cares. No, its not a 'revenue sport' but don't tell me schools like LSU, Arkansas, etc. don't care.

When I see that trailer in the end zone and whatever the hell that is on the west side upper deck, I can?t help but think poverty program.

lol, those are premium sitting now, right? How the hell we convince someone that's premium?

Agree, that is some halfassed stuff. It looks pretty bad.

[SPMT]

No, again he’s ultimately the guy at the top of the administration but he got back stabbed on the decision that put us in this situation. We have to thank our own for this shit show.

Can you explain how he got backstabbed, please. I am unaware.

[Coursesuper]

He was literally on a trip to interview a candidate when it was leaked to CL best writer that we were hiring Cohen. That guy and another candidate immediately backed out and Cohen we were handed. It was a low point for us at a time we were trending upward, very divisive for us who already have problems getting it together.

That?s pretty shitty. Keenum can?t fire someone then for fear of losing support.

Arkansas has 0 titles and LSU would piss on their baseball program before they let it be put over football.

[Coursesuper]

Exactly, it’s a political dance. It’s all about $$$ and support. We have to try to build coalitions, while the confederates can sing from the same sheet of music continuously.

Duh, nobody said they put it over their football program. But you said NOBODY cares about baseball which isn't true.

[BeardoMSU]

One thing I know....I shouldn't start any game threads going forward. The last time I did and we won, was the CWS final....which was obvious cool, but I'm 0-fer since.

It wasn't you Beard. We were up against it from the get go. Things simply did not go as we needed them to. No worries though. If we address the obvious needs, this train is going to turn our way. Our time is coming.
