    I can't understand not being excited. It's the equivalent to having a new toy and seeing all it can do. If MSU ever becomes a one trick pony sports team like many are suggesting we become a national disaster and a forgotten nobody. Baseball is over! It's time for some football!

    Absolutely, for those that think we're a baseball school only.

    I'm at an 7 right now. Our HS starts band camp next week, and I'll be able to hear practice from my house in the evenings. That will bump me up to an 8 subconsciously because I'll be hearing fight songs and cadences while I enjoy the evening ocean breeze and a cocktail after a hot day. By mid August I'll be at a 9, and by kickoff I'll be my normal 10. How long I stay at a 10 depends on the team. I think we take our first 5 - yes I said it! Florida sucks. Texas is not ready to handle the SEC week in and week out. I'll be rolling into Athens at about a 15.

    About 100x more excited than reading about MSU baseball portal players and baseball in general

    6. It's the dog days of summer. Let the season get closer and everyone will start getting excited.

    They need to go to the gynecologist and get that looked at.

    I'm an 8 right now. We go 4-0 and I'll be 11.

    10. Nothing like fall and football. Saturdays wasted on the back porch with a cold drink and something on the grill watching non-stop college football. I do not get into all the politics of the sport, just enjoy it and take my mind off of the real world for a day.

    In this instant eligibility + NIL environment it's hard to care. Used to be we could count on a big school having a fatal flaw and I'd have hope we could exploit it; now they just buy a player to fix the flaw, while buying our best players (RaRa). I'll pull for a guy I think is all Dawg only to see him play Portal games for money and learn he doesn't give a crap about our team or university. I can't blame anyone for trying to make money... but I also don't want to root for those people.

    I'm 2 right now, will probably be a 6 by game day after I get bored and start following the team closely. But last year I skipped some games and didn't miss it. If we start losing I could see putting a nice fall hike with my kids above a game

    College sports were last bastion of watchable competition for me. I havent watched MLB or NBA in a decade. I only watch the NFL because its on Sunday night after I get done with game prep for our next Friday opponent

    Now with portal/NIL its just completely buying players. There is no more us vs them. It's just who we have rented for this season vs who they have rented for this season. I used to plan my Saturdays around the Big 3. Now its just whatever.

    86" TV makes much of the blather totally useless. I did love watching guys gloat and brag under a tent about how much cash they were slinging.. it was quite entertaining
