    Got my Music City parking pass ...

    I'm Lot F, too. I have no clue where that is. I'm sure traffic will be jacked up. Anyone know the best way to approach so I don't get stuck in the wrong line?

    Meh. Seen this before. Couple good yrs, then back to suckage.

    It's all about players and we don't have 'em. No way to spin it. Bad players make good coaches look bad and vice versa.

    "The one who does not remember HISTORY is BOUND to live through it again." --George Santayana</p> How did I know that we would be down a quick 14-0 BEFORE (check the post) the game started? How did I know that Auburn would expose a weakness Memphis couldn't? Because while history is a witch...

    It's a sad indication of our past, but all this confidence makes me...

    I understand, but after 24 years of exactly what I've described above I don't see how I could live in the real world and feel any differently. If every State fan who has suffered perpetual disappointment stopped following the team, there wouldn't be anyone left in the stands on gameday. Like...

    It's a sad indication of our past, but all this confidence makes me...

    I don't post much, and when I do it's usually to say something negative. Graduated from State in '84. Been kicked in the nuts too many times. Fool me once, etc., etc. Yeah, it's a new era, bla,bla. No matter how good we are, it's tough to go to ANY SEC opponents HOME field and win. Even when we...

    ARK effectively "locks Petrino down" w/ new contract per Low. Will State nut up?

    ARK effectively "locks Petrino down" w/ new contract per Low. Will State nut up? If it can be done with Petrino, it can be done with Mullen. Otherwise we go through this every year that we're successful. And with State not being a traditional "destination" job, it seems that much more...

    Breaking News out of Fayetteville: Petrino Signs New Contract with Arkansas.

    Whatever the reason, seems AR is about to nip their rumors in the bud. Perhaps their coach's history of jumping ship has prepared them to be proactive.

    Swan on Mullen's new contract

    I love Dan, but if we get scared and mortgage the farm now, we may regret it later. As was said on Rivals Radio this am, State has had 7-8 win seasons before. What we haven't had is consistent winning seasons. Now, I do think Mullen is the man to take us there, but it would be a first wouldn't...

    Worried about Mullen and Miami, and this has legs...

    And don't forget, he already has a contract! We're talking about an extension...what's the rush? Unless you think he's a liar, in which case he can go as far as I'm concerned.

    Bowl Update (Updated)

    When there are apparently no other 17ing rules! Why would an SEC division champ ever have to worry about going to a bad bowl anyway? What rule maker would have foreseen that happening? And why specifically the CFA bowl by name? I mean, is the CFA bowl some kind of benchmark bowl? Every bowl...
