Be prepared

Be prepared for the student section tomorrow night.

[Todd4State]

What? Are they actually going to stay this time?

[Political Hack]

I'm prepared to see it crazy and rocking. it's Thursday night ESPN. national TV.

[Five-tool Poster]

Quite the opposite.

[ShotgunDawg]

Awesome! Love how much our students bitch about our team, and then do nothing to help them out. Very hypocritical

[Op4isabitch]

I'm looking around and there ain't a damn soul here...fricking lights aren't even on!

[ShotgunDawg]

On this same subject, why does the SEC schedule home games on campuses that are on fall break?

If fall breaks are schedules a year in advance and the SEC is notably having attendance problems, why wouldn't the SEC do all they could do to make sure teams were on the road during their fall break?

Its' not like all the schools have the same weekend as fall break. The SEC should make sure teams are on the road that week.

We should make a statement and tarp the damn student section for the rest of the season. No Bama or Egg Bowl as punishment for your garbage.

Or just allow anyone with SkyDeck tickets to get in and send all the students up top.

Haha, what if there was a tarp with the logo on it over the student section tomorrow night. That would be classic

[CadaverDawg]

Quite the opposite.

And what exactly would them not showing up prove? I seriously want to know what message they/you are trying to get across by having an empty student section on national TV?

I would hope our students have more pride than to do that

If that's the case, Stricklin needs to be handing out tickets at will call for a discount for fans that want to be there.

I suspect the rest of the stadium will be relatively full. Our alumni actually have done a pretty good job of showing up to games and filling the stadium till the end of the 4th quarter. Even in all the pictures of the Bowling Green student section, the rest of the stadium outside of the students, was pretty full.

I kinda like setting our expectations for the student section low for tomorrow night. That way, if its moderately full, then we will be pleasantly surprised.

I think what we forget is that many students have family that come to the games, and those students will probably be there.

I just can't jump on board with the whole get mad at the student section train. If the product is good, people stay, its not an MSU thing, its a human nature thing.

LSU had 15,000 empty seats against Florida. Many of them in their student section. There product doesn't suck. Our students are watching some of the best football in the history of our school. If this isn't good enough to get them to stick around, then they must really hate football.

I'm as hard on the team as anybody...but it's not like we are 0-6. There is zero reason for the students not to show up for a Nationally Televised SEC game. That would be pathetic and they would just be setting themselves up for some serious ridicule, and hopefully worse seats in the future

Our students haven't watched football in the history of the school. It's not very good football to them relative to what they watch now. Hell, it's not very good football to me either.

[bluelightstar]

But yes, it will be very empty. 5,000 students max.

[Dallas_Dawg]

They should give out tickets to high school kids to sit in the student section. They would eat that shit up and maybe even help future enrollment. They would be loud and rowdy

Your statement is contradictory. They haven't watched football but it's not good compared to what they watch now.

Ugghhh... like Inigo Montoya, "I hate waiting." One thing that Turdsday game leave to be desired for me is that I work 0400-1230 and it goes by so slow waiting to get off so I can leave for Starkpatch. The other is there's no game or anything to listen to on the way up. It'll be the Dick and Matty show keeping me company.
