    I?m not a Leach fanatic, but I watched him some at Texas Tech and WSU, whenever they were on tv. Several games while Kingsbury, Harrell, Crabtree was there. Several when Gardner was at WSU. Some during the Couch years at UK. Some during his time at OU. I?m not going back to do film study, but I?d say as much or more than the average MSU fan. How many years have you watched Leach?s teams? What?s your point?

    Despite pooping our pants and looking like deer in the headlights.......when we are on, not many teams in the country are better than us....certainly not Texas tech.
    I like the confidence but as awful as the kicking game is with a lower tier running game. I don?t see state boat racing anyone.

    Actually, you'd be wrong. That game gives us national attention in a fertile recruiting area. And its one of the top attended bowl games. Here is a exert from the Texas Bowl.

    HOUSTON ? The 2021 Texas Bowl, featuring teams from the Big 12 and SEC, will kick off in primetime on Tuesday, Jan. 4, at 8 p.m. CT. The 15th edition of the game will be played at NRG Stadium in Houston and will air on ESPN and ESPN Radio, with a local radio broadcast on SportsRadio 610 (KILT-AM).

    The Texas Bowl is a top-five most attended bowl game in the country and the most attended non-New Year?s Six game since 2016, trailing only the Rose, Peach, Fiesta and Orange Bowls.

    On top of that, it has a much better payout compared to the Liberty, which sucks, is in a crime infested area and has no parking.

    Thank you for the Houston C of C take on the bowl. Its on Tuesday night Jan 4 at 8. The only people watching that or at that are corporate tix from Houston types, fans and alumni of the schools involved and gamblers. The rest of the world goes Click, Yes Liberty sux also. The advantage to these games is the practice time.

    Again, the air raid is a tool that allows a less talented team to beat a more talented team, that?s all. It?s why tech and WSU oiled beat Oklahoma, Texas, Oregon and usc with half the talent. The long view is when you get four star sec athletes to run it, very few teams can match up with you.

    A power run game is never going to get you over on the top teams, it?s man vs man talent on talent. It?s a good system for Alabama but a bad system for State.
    This guy gets it. At a place like state, you have to do something different. Period

    Btw what about the Msu vs TT matchup in the bowl game?
    And some on this board still don't want it to work or CML to succeed. (no reference to you)

    Agree?

    However, after the NY6 there really is no order in bowl selection. Pay outs do not matter, the SEC along with the bowls and ESPN will determine where we go, we may go to Texas but it?s certainly not 100% and a change can take place at the last minute? I wouldn?t be surprised if we end up in the Liberty or Music City. TBh, I would rather us go the Birmingham Bowl than Texas, they have a brand new stadium and it?s very close for our fans?

    Why ? Texas tech basically does not have a defense, we would score at will. I don’t think we need a high tier run game to beat Texas tech.

    Their o line also could not match up with our defense.

    We will be a very tough matchup in a bowl game.
