The age old question..... is it better to play them early in the day or later?
It is at home, so not sure which is better.

WOW.
We might just get lucky on this one. They usually suck on the road in the early game.
Dammit. Now I've got hope.
Put them in their purple Jerseys and we go all white.
It's better to play all games at home at night.Quote:

Or maybe its bc its SE LA. Weve been a lot better than we give ourselves credit for. Only thing I would change is how Mullen left and Moorhead. Even then we didnt go 4-8Quote:

depth will play a part considering the heat
At least I won?t have to end my day being disgusted About football
Think this is a plus. Our chances of winning improved a bit. Would wear white jerseys and gray pants with maroon helmet along with interlocking MSU logo. Force them to wear purple and yellow unis.
Why? They don't care.Quote:

Maybe you mean Bond's MSU logo.Quote:

Is the 11 am game slot the 3 spot in the ranking?
I wouldn't think so.
Alabama at South Florida
BYU at Arkansas
Samford at Auburn
Tennessee at Florida
South Carolina at Georgia
Akron at Kentucky
Georgia Tech at Ole Miss
LSU at Mississippi State
Kansas State at Missouri
UL-Monroe at Texas A&M
Vanderbilt at UNLV
I've been assuming this was going to be a night game, this really blows.
KState at Missouri will pull a bigger rating than our game regardless of time slot during week 3.Quote:

I believe that Disney/ESPN are game planning a sanction on the SEC for the 8 game decision. The bean counters are projecting their revenue losses due to that decision. Attached to my projection is an email sent to Josh Pate. I welcome you spin on the email.
Hi Josh and associates,
I subscribe and watch all of your content. I agree with most of your content and would like to diversify some spin on scheduling. I would like to spin something sports wise from the cooperate level and that is the Regional Sports Networks pulling out of some baseball and basketball affiliations. This means a stop payment of contracted money to sports organizations.
I do not like the expanded playoff, as you don't also, because it devalues the regular season. My first sports love is college football followed by NFL, NBA, and Premier League Soccer. I believe that the SEC sticking with an eight game schedule could trigger an administrative action by Disney/ESPN due to revenues lost with lesser unwatched games constipating its docket of games. Disney may go into mitigation proceedings of lost revenues as the RSN have done this year and make decisions of equity which means deducting funds to the SEC for intentionally devaluing the product as seen by Disney/ESPN.
The expanded playoff games will be persona non grata on the weekends because the KING NFL will dictate to the college football PEASANTS. The relegated weekday games will be less watched because the major viewers in urban America will have had their football fix over the weekend. I believe that a major college football game on a Saturday in October will end up more valuable than a college football play off game in late December because of an NFL impediment. The NFL has expanded their playoff footprint and will crush competing outsiders mafia style.
Because the college football community does not see things our way, they will see what happens when the dog finally catches the car.
