    OT: Red lights lately

    I think we need to reverse the legislation that banned traffic cameras in MS. This was done about 20 years ago because Jackson installed traffic cameras at red lights. At the time, I was in favor of the ban. Now, they are desperately needed in the metro area. It is so out of control.

    Thunder & Lightning: Making Sense of Mississippi State’s Portal Strategy

    This all day. When you just watch the O line the past two seasons, they always seem to be out of position after the snap. They get beat quite a bit, but there are way more times when they let someone thru untouched.

    Donate to NIL

    If you step back and look at what is currently going on in college athletics, it is totally insane. These schools are having to ask everyone to dig deeper each year. Now we are at the point where college athletes are opting out of professional drafts to make more money as a college player. At...

    MSU vs Mizzou Game Thread

    Not a single offensive player makes any attempt to block. If the defender doesn't run into them, there is nothing to slow them down.

    Duplicate number trickery.

    Changing numbers isn’t the issue. You can’t play different players at the same position wearing the same number. It is illegal.

    Duplicate number trickery.

    This is actually illegal. You can't have players with same number play the same position. It came up in the egg bowl years ago when Freeze put the crack head D tackle in on offense. In this instance, it is all but impossible for an official to tell the difference. Since it is so hard to catch...

    OT Question: Does anyone know the equivalent seats at Bryant Denny to the CL at state?

    They have the North and South Zones that are the very similar to our club level. It is an end zone view, but you are up high enough that view is good. The inside area is much better and easier to get around than Davis Wade. I go to a game or two each year over there with friends. I have...

    Thunder & Lightning: Can Jeff Lebby Get His Fans Past The Stigma of the Toledo Loss?

    I had tried to put that out of my mind. Oh well, back to dreading the start of football season. Feels like the 2000s.

    Speeding tickets in the mail..

    If I remember correctly, the original legislation came after Jackson installed red light cameras. I was never in favor of giving out tickets by camera, but I am starting to change my tune. If you drive around the metro, you are taking a huge risk by not waiting several seconds after you get a...

    Sloppy Joe just beat Toledo in OT

    21-14. That just gives me an even bigger uneasy feeling about our future.

    OT Home Surround Sound

    Thanks for the help. I went thru all of the hassle years ago of installing the speakers and sub. My Onkyo receiver has an issue and keeps powering off. I thought I would get some thoughts on what to do here since there doesn't seem to be anything local other than Best Buy. I have noticed that...

    OT Home Surround Sound

    My receiver has bit the dust, and I want take advantage of any new technology when I replace it. What do I need to be looking for in a replacement? I am not looking for a super high end setup, but I don't want to go too cheap.

    Did the athletic department send out a postgame survey after Arkansas?

    It is easier to list the number of high schools that don't have LED lights. Turns out that might have been right to save that money since we will be the permanent 11:45 game for the next few years. I have reached the conclusion that nobody in the athletic dept cares. There is no attention to...

    Sanderson Farms Championship

    They had it at Grand Bear in 2022. That was the last year for the tournament. Grand Bear isn't the best course to host a tournament. The logistics aren't real good, but that wasn't the cause. Rapiscan dropped the sponsorship.

    Sanderson Farms Championship

    I think Sanderson committed to a 10 year sponsorship just a couple of years ago. That must have changed when they sold the business. Have you seen something about the Champions tour returning to the coast next year? They lost the sponsor, and they have not had the tournament the past couple...
