I am excited and thankful for the season we had. I had expected 6, but was pleased with 7. As we look to get our Bowl assignment, I begin to wonder if there are any teams that just are bad matchups for us? Offensively- something unique like GT did to us in the Peach. Defensively- teams that see or have seen the AirRaid fairly often and play well against it. Just a discussion thread. If we go Texas, predicted opponents include WV and KSU.

I think that we match up well with both of those. I?ve not watched WV this year. Do they still run an AR variant? I think we are just better than KSU, if we play our game.

Honestly I didn't watch enough of our of SEC play this year to really gage other programs. Outside of the top 10 I think we give everyone a scare or are able to go toe to toe with them just based on the product we put on the field.

I think the women's team just made regionals. No, that was volleyball.

I bowl about a 160-180 average , haven’t played in years. Tried it on vacation and after awhile I could spin it pretty good.

I’m not quite Bill Murray in Kingpin.

I thought the same thing. I assume we'd probably go with gymnastics before bowling though.

Orange, not peach. Brain fart, I guess. I didn?t even realize I typed Peach til you saw it.

Back when I bowled regularly I was at 235 average with high around 260-270 weekly. I wish Starkville had a bowling alley, because I would form a team and get after it.

Mike Leach and Will Rogers will put on a show in whatever postseason bowl game we're blessed with.

Neither of them gave a shit about beating ol mess.

Any bowl against any team is ok with me - as long as we don't wear those horrible sno-cone white helmets and all white uniforms. Those white helmets just suck sooooo bad!!

260-270? I could do that........in about 2.5 games! I found out that apparently any bowling or pool shooting prowess I should have been born with got transferred to darts.

As long as we don't have SEC or PAC 12 refs I like our chances.

I must have Peach on the brain. Been upsetting my neighbor by saying Peach every time I see him. He?s praying for a Sugar Bowl.

How sad is it to hope not to have your own conference?s officiating? 🤮

Organized my bowling league. Held that average 220-235 for 5 years and my top game each week was around 240-260 all with house shoes and a house ball. I have been bowling since I was in 2nd grade. State didn?t have a team when I was there. If they had, that would have been awesome.

Well, the Union had a bowling alley when I was in school. I was an "education major", I took a Bowling Class as an elective, there was this hot sorority chick in this class, she averaged around 180 or so. Now I hated bowling and it showed when I averaged around 125, but man did I ever more enjoyed the scenery with her swinging her arms and hips with perfect style while bowling. LOL
