Super Regional will be in Nashville

[MarketingBully]

All I know is the only official items they look at they didn’t use here (bid, attendance, and logistics). They don’t use RPI, head to head, or anything you guys have stated here on why you thought Vandy should host. But the fact Vandy already played us in Starkville was a factor.

Boy Hopefully Cohen isn't starting a string of failures.

First South Carolina, with a lesser resume was chosen for the Outback Bowl over us, now this, and coaching search is starting to take a little longer that anyone thought.

Perhaps Mr Cohen's stick is a little short. Other than hiring Moorhead, what has he done?

Demand better or you get LT for 20 years.

The problem with MSU athletics under Lonnie Tinkle wasn't Lonnie Tinkle, it was the collective MSU fan base that lacked a pair to demand better.

Stupid post.

[yjnkdawg]

Ok. I agree with you BUT

This is just a terrible criteria by which to decide this.

MSU just got punished for playing an intra-conference team in an NCAA Super Regional. That should not matter and the NCAA should have an objective process for deciding this because I can assure you, if it were an out of conference matchup, the criteria would've been different.


Can anyone imagine a

The NCAA used to have a rule where two teams from the same conference would not match up against each other in the regional tournaments. I guess that was changed, for the benefit of the SEC**. Seems like the brackets this year are designed to limit the number of SEC teams that could possibly make it to Omaha?

[ShotgunDawg]

Dumbest take of the year year right here. Cohen doesn't have balls because he didn't scare the outback bowl committee or NCAA host commitee into picking us? This isn't the mafia, you can't bully these organizations as a an AD

Disagree. It's takes like yours that allow Lonnie Tinkle to run an SEC AD for 20 years.

Demand more and stop trusting every Tom, Dick, and Harry

[ShotgunDawg]

Stupid post.

Disagree Ari. You have no clue how much he fault for our fan base in either situation.

So why is Cohen possibly starting a string of failures? You have actually had a few good posts lately, but this definitely is not one of them.

If we were LSU it wouldn't have mattered that Vanderbilt played us in Baton Rouge. I'm just putting that out there.

This does not even make any sense.

Not hosting Super Regional when there is no set criteria
Coaching search taking longer than anyone expected.

None of these are catastrophic. Just something to keep an eye on. Does Cohen have stroke at the negotiating table?

All you guys trust him, but why?

Sorry "fought"

Completely agree.

So if we hold our breath till we turn blue we will get what we want then? That's a two year old's way of doing things. I have been trying to point out for two days that our stadium construction has been ramped up. A lot of it is on the upper deck. We even put out some fluff price about the next time we played there it would be complete or something to that effect.

[MarketingBully]

What the hell does student-athlete experience mean? Construction on our stadium played a factor in having it in Nashville. What a joke. But it didn’t have to do with RPI, head to head, or conference record...

South Carolina finished 2nd in the East; we finished 4th in the West. Our starting QB was hurt; the Outback tends to select East teams; and we had no head coach. No AD is going to be able to "force" the conference's 3rd-best bowl to take (by record) the sixth-best team in that scenario.

He took less than 48 hours to make an ideal hire in football, BUT it's far more important to get this coaching search right than to get it done quickly. The quest for Alabama to hire Nick Saban took quite a while too.

THE SEASON IS STILL GOING. The coaching search should and will be concluded swiftly after the season ends. Have just a litttttle bit of common sense. My god, it's like a super power nowadays.

[Saltydog]

hosting from the get go. Not sure of the criteria but way too many things were in their favor. Don't say RPI either because this a.m. Warren Nolan has us at 19 (SOS 7) and them 21 (SOS 3) so it's pretty damn close.

It was because our stadium was still under construction. None of the other things mattered.

If there are no safety issues with hosting a Super Regional at the Dude , then that should be a non-factor, and there aren't any to my knowledge. I would also like to hear an explanation on the student-athlete experience reason. That should be very enlightening***.
