Huge month of practice and development for the young guys

I'll take it. But reality is our team is about to be 70% different next year. Kamario is probably the only beneficiary

Hey its great time for Arnett to see who he wants to keep and also for more practice for KT to get real time with the receivers. Of course MSU is going to accept.

McMurtry confirmed Mayo Bowl against ACC opponent. ACC is a mess right now trying to figure things out.

With that payout, why would anyone turn down a bowl? How does their conf allow them to turn it down?

Good for MSU! KT is going to show out and the team needs the practice. Good chance to end the year on a positive note.

You spend a boatload going to one. Most of the time it’s a break even situation. It’s good for us we need something good to happen. Edit to add. Kinda wish this were Birmingham, we would have a good turnout for that one. But we can’t really be choosers in this situation can we.

I want Arnett coaching the bowl game. Get a little of it installed, see the parts he is working with. Etc.

I'm glad they did, but you should lose the bowl distribution if you turn one down.

This is huge for the program. Especially if 1) Kamario gets most/all first team reps in practice and starts or at least plays most of the snaps. 2) Arnette coaches the D and gets a head start installing his defense.

If 2 happens then smash the over...
Not a downer on Arnett. Just different style of defense means our guys won't be the most effective which I know may not seem like a change for us but it would be stunning to see improvement in that short of a window with the same personnel.

They were prepared for 1 of 2 between ND/Miami to not be available. Not both. It's all ND's fault and can't really fault the ACC for not expecting this much of a hissy fit from ND. They were more prepping their own bitching if they get left out of the playoff.

This is huge for us on many different aspects! Does Lebby play Shapen for one last hoorah or do you give rhe reigns to KT? Hopefully most of the guys want to play and dont decide to sit out. More practice and one more game for Leb to continue to learn and develop. Don't know much about the Demon Deacs but they better be ready! Hail State!

Shapen needs to spend this time preparing for his future. KR gets every snap

Seems like a waste to me.
If Arnett calls the defense and we give up something stupid like 56 points I don't care and wouldn't demand that he be fired. We need to get a head start on next year. If we get blown out just say "Oh, different defense didn't have his guys" and move on.
If MSU wants us to forget the entire 2023 season surely the Mayo Bowl won't be a problem to forget.

Go with KT. Playing Shapen doesn't help us for next year and we already benched him for the Egg Bowl.

I'm with you and parabrave. Gotta go with KT. Every rep is a step forward in his development. I'd love to see him stay in the pocket and attempt 25+ attempts. That is if he isn't turning the ball over. But definitely want to see his passing skills improve and use the feet when necessary.
A win would be huge. But I see it as more of an elite practice.

This won?t work, you are off base because you lack a basic grasp of how football works. Arnett doesn?t have time to put in his defense, the previous defense will have different calls, terminology and adjustments, coverages etc, and I?m keeping this very basic. The old staff will have to go with this one.

Arnett should spend the extra practices and the game scouting who he wants to keep. Not possible for him to coach.

Krow should play this game. We can not afford KT getting hurt.

This defense doesn't work. I'm talking about Hutzler's for the record.
I know he doesn't have time to put in his defense. I don't expect that. But he can put the base in.

For those who have gone to bowls before, when is the best time to buy tickets to balance price and best seats? Seems like I?ve heard that it?s often better *not* to go through the school.

Too much benefit from giving KT the reps. He'll have the offseason to get well if he gets hurt.

Buy from the bowl itself can usually get better seats unless you just want to sit in the MSU section.

I remember the Dogs going to Memphis Dak?s Soph season......the DOGS played better than they did all season against a good team. I remember telling a friend this team with this qb (Dak) has got the potential to be special next year. i predicted them to give LSU fits which they did and the rest is history. The only other time I had such a strong feeling is before Mullen went down and beat Fla down there. You never know but this could be a big plus......we shall see said the zenmaster.....GO DOGS!

How many practices did we have before we played LSU during COVID the first time Arnett was here?
Arnett will coach this game not sure if he will have full control but will have input!

I would wait bc I expect them to go down since we dont travel well past Atlanta. Wake is a small fanbase as well even if they are 2 hours away.
Upper bowl is set to be tarped off currently but if that opens up the price will plummet.

Dude, please just stop. The premise of a “base” defense install during bowl practice is just mind boggling. This is what you are proposing. Let’s go play a game with 9 defenders. Now before the snap we line up and yell at the other team we’re only going to do these couple of things on defense tonight so you only do stuff that we can defend, y’all good with that? Because that is the equivalent of what you are saying.

I honestly don't care if we win this bowl or not. I want us to start to get ready for next year. Running Hutzler's defense is a waste of time at this point.
