Couple all that with the fact that for at least the next year and probably the next 2-3 we're not going to be competitive in most games, this is going to be a BIG problem for the Athletic dept. and Starkville as a whole.
Yep. I guess certain fans prefer to watch the Dogs against the teams they have an 80 to 90 % chance of losing and skip the games where they have a 70-80% chance of winning. I guess being in the stadium when that 1 in 10 chance of winning actually happens is just to much to pass up.
i remember when Homecoming was the biggest crowd of the year and we usually beat VPI or Villanova by 40 in this games. Now we fill the stadium to watch Bama or LSU curbstomp us on the chance that we can say ?I was there when we beat the Bear!?
