Dawgs v Howgs game thread

[BuckyIsAB****]

Really timid rn on the edge

[ShotgunDawg]

Why is this so frustrating?

Because we're the better team, but our FG has screwed us & our DC is getting worked

[CadaverDawg]

Arkansas has been whipping our d line all damn day. Id be gassed too after getting my ass whipped like that

We've only allowed 23...that's low enough to expect to win on the road

[ShotgunDawg]

We've had virtually no 3 and outs today. Really weird for us

[BayouDawg]

We've only allowed 23...that's low enough to expect to win on the road

I agree but nearly 5 yards per rush by arky is why they gassed

[ShotgunDawg]

Dang. Thought Emerson would get that one

[KOdawg1]

Huge sack

[ShotgunDawg]

HUGE

[BayouDawg]

Wheat! Great play!

[KOdawg1]

Thank y'all for not throwing the flag

[ShotgunDawg]

Whew. That could've been a game changing flag

[ShotgunDawg]

Dang. I'll take it though

[BeardoMSU]

LFG!

[magrooder]

No Good!!!! He been taking notes for Ruiz

[ShotgunDawg]

BOOM

[KOdawg1]

NO GOOD. He's human apparently

[CadaverDawg]

He's human!

[memsu06]

Time for a 7:25 TD drive.

[SilentSteel16]

Was not even close to a flag, refs have done a good job letting them play. Glad they let Ruiz kick that field goal there.

[PendingTransaction]

Now we go win the game. Simple

[ShotgunDawg]

need a TD

[magrooder]

Good play by Ford

[memsu06]

Slow down we don't need to score that quick.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Go finish this with a TD

[ShotgunDawg]

Come on Will

[LC Dawg]

I wish he'd made the fg to force us to go for a td. Maybe Ruiz can redeem himself but it scares the shit out of me.

[KOdawg1]

17ing penalties

[ShotgunDawg]

Sheesh. Here we go

[Apoplectic]

17n trashy again

[magrooder]

Why do we have to hold when they are only rushing 3?? SHIT

[OLJWales]

At the end of the day, you gotta have playas make plays. The guys from Arkansas made plays against the guys we depend on to make the play.

[KOdawg1]

Lashley needs to be cut

[ShotgunDawg]

Stupid by Lashely

[ShotgunDawg]

here we go. 2 downs to get 2

[BayouDawg]

In between Rogers holding the ball too long and holding penalties it will be a miracle if we win.

[magrooder]

Needed that first down by Marks

[ShotgunDawg]

Boom Marks

[BeardoMSU]

Getting tense...

[PendingTransaction]

Eat your popcorn. The pork will be done shortly!

[ShotgunDawg]

Ruiz is going to win it

[RocketDawg]

Fake injury to stop momentum?

[ShotgunDawg]

Getting tense...

We got this. 3rd time is charm for Ruiz

[preachermatt83]

Rogers getting hot.

[CadaverDawg]

Please for the love of all that is good and holy, do not leave it up to Ruiz. I will be a corpse

[ShotgunDawg]

Big off sides.

[ShotgunDawg]

Att boy Marks

Good compsure by Will

[KOdawg1]

Huge play by Rogers by keeping that play going despite the bad snap

[BayouDawg]

Horshshit they should have the play go for us to chuck one deep

[Maverick91]

Marks is significantly better than Johnson

[KOdawg1]

Alright, let's burn some clock

[ShotgunDawg]

Great job by Will there

[magrooder]

Arky end lines up offsides every play

[ShotgunDawg]

Good 1st down

[vindastra]

Marks is significantly better than Johnson

Johnson seems to be stronger and has some shiftiness

[magrooder]

What the hell was that?

[CadaverDawg]

Johnson seems to be stronger and has some shiftiness

Yeah I like the combo

[KOdawg1]

Gotta get rid of the ball there.

[BeardoMSU]

I guess we didn't want to stop the clock there? Otherwise, that was bad...

[RocketDawg]

Surely Ruiz can make a FG from here if needed.

[ShotgunDawg]

That's fine. Way to hold onto the ball

[msstate7]

Gotta have a td. Fg will get us beat

[memsu06]

Rodgers doesn't throw it away because when he did in the Alabama game it was intentional grounding.

[ShotgunDawg]

Surely Ruiz can make a FG from here if needed.

He will. I'm more worried about our defense

[RocketDawg]

Was Will limping?

[bobtail bob]

It’s right within our grasp all we have to do is close it out

[preachermatt83]

If we kick fg here we will lose. We need to get in the end zone. Bad.

[SilentSteel16]

He made the right call not to force it… force it and turn it over, ball game.

[BeardoMSU]

TD!!!!!!!

[RocketDawg]

He will. I'm more worried about our defense

TD. He doesn't need to.

[magrooder]

YES!!!

[CadaverDawg]

CAN NOT SETTLE FOR FG

[memsu06]

Ok defense.

Don't 17 this up.

[msstate7]

That's fine. Way to hold onto the ball

Lol, what?

Great play for td

[KOdawg1]

TOUCHDOWN!!!!

WHAT A THROW!

[PendingTransaction]

Hog is served! Pulled pork or brisket!

[ShotgunDawg]

BOOM MFers

[Statecoachingblows**]

BOOM!!!!'n

[RocketDawg]

Thought Will was holding onto the ball too long there.

[MoreCowbell]

HELL YEAH!!!!!!

[vindastra]

No Ruiz

[CadaverDawg]

Y'all are way ahead of my TV, and I don't care! BOOM!!

[ShotgunDawg]

Finish this shit defense

[BeardoMSU]

Ok, D...y'all on the clock.

[msstate7]

Why pat? 2 pts is 6 point lead

[RocketDawg]

Now all we have to do is keep them out of the endzone.

[KOdawg1]

Absolutely huge.

They would've beaten us had they held us to a FG. Now you make them punch it in the end zone

[SilentSteel16]

Lol, what?

Great play for td

In reference to taking the sack….. better play than turnover or forcing it ….

[CovertDawg]

Why pat? 2 pts is 6 point lead

It was crazy not to go for 2 there.

[preachermatt83]

Man I’m gonna throw up

[msstate7]

In reference to taking the sack….. better play than turnover or forcing it ….

Better than throwing it away?

[RocketDawg]

Y'all are way ahead of my TV, and I don't care! BOOM!!

Yeah, me too. Wondering if the game is over now. Hope we won.

[ShotgunDawg]

Time for Arnett to sack up

[BuckyIsAB****]

Welllllll

[bobtail bob]

They will get at least one big call from the refs here. We just have to overcome it

[CadaverDawg]

It was crazy not to go for 2 there.

Yeah, maybe Leach has no faith in the D, and thinks we'll have time to go get a FG lol

[LC Dawg]

Hell yeah!
Finish it defense!

[SilentSteel16]

5 or 6 point lead does it matter… they still need a td

[KOdawg1]

Better than throwing it away?

Not sure what they're thinking. Ark called a TO anyway, so throwing away saves us yards.

Ended up not mattering tho

[Statecoachingblows**]

Get that stop and go home

[SilentSteel16]

Better than throwing it away?

Absolutely better, force them to burn timeouts.. no brainer there

[somebodyshotmypaw]

5 or 6 point lead does it matter… they still need a td

It matters a ton. With a 6 point lead if Arkansas gets a TD and misses the XP, we have overtime.

[ShotgunDawg]

Arkansas has 2 TOs

[PendingTransaction]

I told y'all we would win! Stop stressing so much!

[SilentSteel16]

Forced them to use a timeout… now they need a touchdown and only have 2 timeouts. Absolutely right call there.

[memsu06]

I would have liked to waste more time on that last drive though.

[msstate7]

Absolutely better, force them to burn timeouts.. no brainer there

We just disagree there. We didn't have the lead at the time

[CadaverDawg]

This would be the type of win that could get an old non believer like me to start questioning himself

[ShotgunDawg]

OK defense. This is where good teams step up

[maroonmania]

Well, if we had a FG kicker this one would be over.

[CadaverDawg]

I would have liked to waste more time on that last drive though.

Same

[RocketDawg]

Here we go into the prevent. It's bitten us more than helped us over time.

[ShotgunDawg]

Good job. Make the dink & dunk. Not sure they can run the ball now

[ShotgunDawg]

Come on defense. Step up

[CadaverDawg]

Pretty sure I saw someone predict a 28-23 win for us a long time ago in this thread. Hope they end up looking like a genius

[KOdawg1]

Gonna come down to the wire and cost me some years off my life

[ShotgunDawg]

Good heavens

[Statecoachingblows**]

Jesus

[CadaverDawg]

Gonna come down to the wire and cost me some years off my life

Wouldn't be State if it didnt

[KOdawg1]

If we're gonna blitz, we have to get home

[ShotgunDawg]

They've stopped the clock on every play

[CadaverDawg]

Man our D sucks today

[ShotgunDawg]

For the love of God. No zero blitzes

[KOdawg1]

Shit.

[ShotgunDawg]

NOOOOO

[magrooder]

Bull F#$%^&*() Shit!!

[RocketDawg]

They just got the big call.

[SilentSteel16]

Looked like a slip

[RocketDawg]

That wasn't a hold.

[ShotgunDawg]

Unreal

[msstate7]

They can run the ball now

[magrooder]

Make a play and the refs screw you over, unbelievable

[Statecoachingblows**]

There's that call someone mentioned he fell BS

[BayouDawg]

We just got screwed

[CadaverDawg]

Unbelievable

[MoreCowbell]

That is a ****ing awful call. Was within 5 yards. Assholes just cost us the game. **** that

[bobtail bob]

That was a total flop. I knew they would do it

[ShotgunDawg]

That wasn't a hold.

Very ticky tack

[maroonmania]

What a weak call.

[mparkerfd20]

Wow. What a screw job

[Maverick91]

That’s not a flag!

[Maroonthirteen]

So the dude that threw the punches...and is still playing .... draws the bull PI call.

Horse $*** call

[ShotgunDawg]

Defense has to find a way. Just find a 17ing way

[SilentSteel16]

Forbes gets the take away

[MoreCowbell]

Fu*k these piece of shit refs

[CadaverDawg]

We are the Kings of getting screwed

[msstate7]

Can't believe they throwing it. They can run it

[RocketDawg]

Good grief!

[KOdawg1]

Ballgame

[ShotgunDawg]

Unreal. Terrible defense

[vindastra]

Hawk tackling now?

[RocketDawg]

Unbelievable.

[Maroonthirteen]

Holding on that run by Jefferson. Obvious holding. Such horse ..

[KOdawg1]

This game is on you Arnett

[msstate7]

Remember us kicking an extra point? Dumb

[ShotgunDawg]

Horrific call & horrific defense by MSU

[vindastra]

**** Ruiz

[mparkerfd20]

Wow. We got robbed

[ShotgunDawg]

This game is on you Arnett

It totally was

[HoopsDawg]

really bad timeout by Leach. And should have used one after the KJ Jefferson run. That's clock management 101.

[Maverick91]

I’m super glad that they didn’t call the massive holding in our d end

[BeardoMSU]

Unreal. Terrible defense

**** off. We get ****ed by the refs, and you blame the D?

[CadaverDawg]

Way to show pride, Defense. You got your ass kicked today. Physically whipped

[PGHBulldogBG]

I don?t care if we got robbed the defense on that last drive was absolutely pathetic

[SilentSteel16]

Remember us kicking an extra point? Dumb

It would not have mattered … just watch.

[maroonmania]

Defense doesn't come through when it matters.

[ShotgunDawg]

Wow. We got robbed

In some ways, but our defense blew it. Just a horrific game plan

[Saltydog]

Thanks Ruiz......

[Lord McBuckethead]

Well. The refs gave them 20 pts.

[Maverick91]

I cannot believe the screw job by these refs. Like that is stupid unreal

[SilentSteel16]

If it is tied 29-29 they would kick FG

[PendingTransaction]

Pretty sure I saw someone predict a 28-23 win for us a long time ago in this thread. Hope they end up looking like a genius

Dangit! Arnett messed up my prediction. I was about to go get a lotto ticket and build us a top-notch indoor facility.

[ShotgunDawg]

**** off. We get ****ed by the refs, and you blame the D?

Our defense stunk. That call on Emerson could've gone either way but it wasn't a bad call

[somebodyshotmypaw]

If it is tied 29-29 they would kick FG

No they wouldn’t

[Travelingdawg]

I concur, it's on Arnett.

[KOdawg1]

Pathetic

[CadaverDawg]

I'm sick. Would have been a season changing win. But a BS defensive Pi and a no penalty punch throw along with shit defense, and we are State

[ShotgunDawg]

Boy our defense quit

[SilentSteel16]

Missed two fgs… that was the game.

[preachermatt83]

Arnett was atrocious today

[BayouDawg]

Defense got their shit pushed in all day. And then just laid down on that 2 point conversion. They made our ass quit

[Prentis]

Am I the only person that saw the false start by the left side of their offensive line on the touchdown

[BuckyIsAB****]

Refs saved them. But that is bad defense. Real bad

[Saltydog]

If your'e a long time fan of 50 years like myself this is not shocking. VERY MSU like. #cantstandproesperity

[msstate7]

No they wouldn?t

Lol, wut? They'd go for 2 in a tie game?

[SilentSteel16]

No they wouldn’t

My man, it would have been tied 29-29 before the PAT

[ShotgunDawg]

I'm sick. Would have been a season changing win. But a BS defensive Pi and a no penalty punch throw along with shit defense, and we are State

That call could've gone either way. It wasn't a bad call

[CadaverDawg]

It would be the most State thing ever to get in FG range now and have Ruiz miss again to end it

[HoopsDawg]

Remember us kicking an extra point? Dumb

Yes, that was really bad. Do we not have an analystics guy.

[R2Dawg]

Our defense stunk. That call on Emerson could've gone either way but it wasn't a bad call

That was a horrible call. They got the homer call

[Mjoelner34]

Holding on that run by Jefferson. Obvious holding. Such horse ..

This! A made up holding call then a no-call on a take down. 100% bullshit! Plus, 16's ass shouldn't even have been in the game since he threw a punch.

[CadaverDawg]

That call could've gone either way. It wasn't a bad call

It was a bad call. You can't NOT call all the physical shit all game and then call that. Just cant

[Cowboydawg]

Am I the only person that saw the false start by the left side of their offensive line on the touchdown

LT and LG were moving well before the snap.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Lol, wut? They'd go for 2 in a tie game?

They would have kicked a PAT. You can’t kick a FG after a touchdown. Basic rules of football.

[RocketDawg]

Up to Ruiz. And well inside his theoretical range.

[KOdawg1]

Oh my god

[State82]

Holy shit. You 17ers and your whining asses regarding officiating are pathetic little bitches. Look at the games we've lost and look at the critical defensive plays and there you have it.

[Irondawg]

Yep that was a huge blown call and the false starts by the whole left side of the line.

I want to see the end zone angle on that PI call though

[RocketDawg]

Make that McCord.

[bobtail bob]

Prevent defense is not worth a shit. Never has been

[ShotgunDawg]

McCord. LOL. No shot

[SilentSteel16]

They would have kicked a PAT. You can’t kick a FG after a touchdown. Basic rules of football.

Seriously? Like talking to a teenager

[ShotgunDawg]

McCord has no shot at this kick

[msstate7]

They would have kicked a PAT. You can’t kick a FG after a touchdown. Basic rules of football.

Lol, ok

[mparkerfd20]

Gonna miss wide right

[BeardoMSU]

Welp, that's about right.

[CadaverDawg]

Can McCord even kick it that far?

[R2Dawg]

Bad snap, 3 missed FG today.

[magrooder]

Not worth a f#ck

[calidawg]

Kickers man

[KOdawg1]

17ing scrubs

[RocketDawg]

No doubt that he missed it. :)

[BayouDawg]

The most Mississippi state thing ever

[HoopsDawg]

You've got to go Ruiz there and hope the percentages even out and he makes it.

[CadaverDawg]

What a cursed program

[maroonmania]

DUMB. I knew he was going to miss before he kicked it. Should have just given Ruiz another shot.

[DeputyDawg94]

������������

[magrooder]

That was Leach over thinking, should have given Ruiz the chance to redeem himself

[Maverick91]

You have to be good in all three aspects of the game and we weren’t.

[starkvegasdawg]

I've seen dying quail look better than that kick.

[BeardoMSU]

You've got to go Ruiz there and hope the percentages even out and he makes it.

Agreed.

[msugolf]

Absolute stupid decision to pull Ruiz there. You don?t send a new guy out there in that pressure situation. Just absolute brain dead coaching decisions today

[SilentSteel16]

That is on Ronald McDonald’s kid kicking

[TopDawg]

We were ROBBED!

[Maroonthirteen]

Oh well. Nice come back. Hung in there. Fought and fought. Move on.

[Cloak]

Leach is so ****in stupid sometimes

[Maverick91]

That was Leach over thinking, should have given Ruiz the chance to redeem himself

I do agree!

[CovertDawg]

You've got to go Ruiz there and hope the percentages even out and he makes it.

Completely agree unless Ruiz was claiming injury was bothering him again.

[calidawg]

Do we have a dedicated special teams coach? Who's call is that. Kicking is a mental game and you give a guy cold off the bench the game winner on the road?

[Statecoachingblows**]

Shouldn't kick another FG the rest of the season

[R2Dawg]

I don't like the kicker switch, now we have two kickers messed up in the head.

Had a chance to redeem Ruiz.

[LC Dawg]

I hope Ruiz said he was hurt and Leach had no choice because otherwise that was ****ing stupid.

[Homedawg]

You've got to go Ruiz there and hope the percentages even out and he makes it.

This all day long. Outsmarted ourselves

[Tater]

That's 3 losses you can blame on special teams.

Leach really is taking us to levels unseen by Dan Mullen.

[Dak Holliday]

We were ROBBED!

Can?t be robbed of things you give away.

[CadaverDawg]

What a miserable thing to be a fan of. Lol

[Apoplectic]

Was the snap bad

[preachermatt83]

3 missed fgs. Smh. We were the better team

[maroonmania]

Our special teams just pretty much suck all around. Knew it was going to cost us a game. Miss 3 FGs in a close game and you are going to lose. Only chance we had was to make the 4th down stop but the refs made sure that didn't happen.

[msstate7]

That's 3 losses you can blame on special teams.

Leach really is taking us to levels unseen by Dan Mullen.

Leach isn't responsible for ST, huh? We a ST blunder by la tech from losing to them

[Dak Holliday]

What a miserable thing to be a fan of. Lol
Like button push 👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼

[LC Dawg]

On the road against a good SEC team I have no problem with our offense or defense. Special teams lost this game and Leach has to do something about it.

[Saltydog]

Boys, Boys, Boys...You could see this coming from a mile away.....Not sure why some of you are shocked.....It's typical MSU.....Always has been, always will be......

[BeardoMSU]

What a miserable thing to be a fan of. Lol

we need an "ED Therapy" site...

[BayouDawg]

I don't like the kicker switch, now we have two kickers messed up in the head.

Had a chance to redeem Ruiz.

I think Ruiz checked himself out. Said he wasnt feeling 100.

[calidawg]

3 missed fgs. Smh. We were the better team

No we weren't, special teams is the 3rd element of the game and we sucked again.

[DeputyDawg94]

Why after 46 years of MSU fandom do I still get this pissed when crap like this happens. You’d think I would be numb to the bullshit after this long.

[calidawg]

On the road against a good SEC team I have no problem with our offense or defense. Special teams lost this game and Leach has to do something about it.

Truly miserable to play good enough to win on offense and defense and have special teams ruin it

[CadaverDawg]

Offense: Waited too late to decide to start playing today. But at least they started and played well eventually.

Defense: Disgusting and prideless

ST: Cut em and fire the coach. Trash

Despite the 10-0 start, we should have won. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory like only my team can do. Where's the Tylenol

[CadaverDawg]

we need an "ED Therapy" site...

1 million percent

[BankerDog]

Ruiz wouldn?t kick when he was hurt because his ?arm? hurt. He?s a puss. McCord has no business on our roster. He nearly missed the XP on our last TD 3 of our 4 losses have been because of Special Teams decisions. Brock doesn?t recruit worth a damn and his special teams have not been great. I was hoping to go for the win, I had no hopes for our FG unit.

Also- we need to put blame on Arnett. They drove all over his defense those last three drives. Just terrible. And the no calls on the last drive?refs should be answering.
