    Anyone gonna be in Long Beach this weekend?

    Planning to be there for first two games and maybe at least some of the Sunday game. Heading down from southern Utah. Need to get the bats going.

    Great article in Chicago Sun-Times about MSU v Loyola, 1963

    http://www.suntimes.com/sports/colleges/16834203-419/loyola-vs-mississippi-state-remembering-the-round-when-everyone-advanced.html It's good to have positive things to point to in Mississippi history in the civil rights era, especially when it comes courtesy of MSU. Edited to add that I saw...

    I started caring about MSU sports and the Detroit Tigers around 1979.

    It does get hot in July and August, but it's not humid at all and the rest of the year is awesome.

    I started caring about MSU sports and the Detroit Tigers around 1979.

    On Monday, while wearing a State shirt and a Tigers cap, I was told something for the first time in my life. A stranger on a hiking trail in St. George, UT saw what I was wearing and said, "Now there is a man who has 2 winning teams." This is a pretty fun fall so far. Of course, the World...

    Maybe Germans but Now for all the Mullen hate - The Rebs have a?????

    Unless you are ready to allow USM to claim dominance in Mississippi college football because they have more wins in football over the last few years. While they have been beating Rice, MSU and UM have been losing to Alabama. A very telling historical fact is that MSU has played Alabama, Auburn...

    Just noticed that Carolina beat UConn in the Supers en route to the Ch'ip last year......

    Just noticed that Carolina beat UConn in the Supers en route to the Ch'ip last year...... After all, .500 SEC finishes have become rare for the last few years. However, our Friday night/opening game of a series thus far on the season has been a brilliant, white-hot bright spot. Though I'm not...

    What if Eli wins another Super Bowl? Is Fant still a better QB?

    Let me start by saying that I, for one, am a big

    It's all about getting MSU fans excited and going to the games. He gains nothing by having UM fans hate him. He is making a lot of money because the MSU fans are excited and buying tickets in record numbers. I can take losing the Egg Bowl sometimes as long as our team is prepared and excited. If...

    Long post suggesting how our season fits into the big picture.

    It is amazing to me the lack of effort in our scheme to get the ball to Ballard/Perkins/Heavens/Lewis in space. But the biggest mystery to me was our obvious reluctance to run the outside option stuff. Of course we had some non-productice plays. The point is to do it enough to hit a big run...

    So..Jeff Scott

    But if I were a UM fan, I would be all for him giving his scholly to a homeless person. If you are gonna talk, the least you could do to back it up is remain eligible for the game. I certainly wouldn't be defending him on technicalities. He basically guaranteed victory, and then couldn't even...

    Long post suggesting how our season fits into the big picture.

    Concerning our overall season . . . 1. We have a history in football. 2. It is a predominantly losing history, with good years only sprinkled in. In summary, not only less than good, but less than mediocre. 3. A 6-6 record is the absolute standard of mediocrity, particularly with the lack of...

    In Nacho Libre voice: "I don't wanna get paid to lose . . . I WANNA HWEEN!" But in normal giggity voice,"On the other hand, getting paid to lose is not bad."
