I got so mad watching it on TV I left and watched on my computer.

Then I got so mad I left my computer and went back to watch on TV.

In 1990, I was at the game regional in Starkville but left early and missed the Burke Masters Grand Slam. I didn't tell my father about that until 20 years later.
So this time, as tired as I was, I wasn't going to leave the dawgs early again (of course this time I was at home watching TV but still...)

I walked away....

in the 5th intentionally to break the mojo and headed down to the basement. Wife came down in the 9th to tell me we had tied it, and that I needed to come watch. I refused.

I was watching with my father and went home to listen in my usual spot on the back patio, after the 5th.

I went and fed my prized sow some slop. Not sure if that means anything. I’ll do it again Tuesday if I have to.

Didn't turn the tv off but definitely stood up out of my easy chair and took a couple of steps toward the bedroom as Skelton's grounder was bouncing toward 3rd.

Guilty as charged. Also, about a million years ago, I left Tulane Stadium as the Saint kicker with the bad foot was kicking the 60 (?) yard field goal to win the game. It's what I do.

I spent 8 innings cussing Shmuley with white-hot venom for taking down that signature and then wife made me stop drinking

I watched every inning. I had a feeling (which has been wrong a million times before), that we were right on the cusp, but nothing was going our way. Seemed like every close State pitch was a ball, and every close Auburn pitch was a strike. Every close call at first was going against us. And for Auburn, a team that has been good not great, they were playing too perfectly. I just couldn't see that continuing for a full 9 innings.

Whew, I was close to being wrong.

Me. Turned it off when it was 2-0. And you're welcome.

I figured since I was banned from the Stanford series, I’d better self-report and not watch after the early deficit.

I got up and started doing chores and was complaining with good friends on group text.

Which resulted in celebratory group texting post game.

I actually got in my truck, started driving around and listening to the game on the radio in the 8th inning to change up the Bad JU-JU. Looks like I’ll be driving around for 4 hours come Tuesday night.

Stayed with it. I wasn’t happy about it until the very end but I stayed with it

Starting in the seventh I turned channels when Auburn was batting then turned back when State was batting. Stay with it until the end.

Was watching at friends house. Wife and I left at the end of 8th. Couldn’t find it on the radio in the truck. Came home and went to bed.
Needless to say I was quite surprised this morning.

I was flying all day yesterday. I couldn’t bear to watch it. Even if I had seen it, I’d have been a nervous wreck....I had resigned myself to the fact that we were prolly gonna lose when I looked in the 6th and it was 3-0.

Caught the last half inning in Houston hobby. Saw us tie it, and then had to board as Gilbert got the game winner...watched that on WatchESPN....saw them all running around the outfield.....muttered to myself....”this team is something else indeed”

I didn't cut mine off, but I cursed at it most of the night as well as recalibrated it a few times to see if the score would change (it finally worked at the end).

Turned it off in the 7th And put my phone on silent. I knew we needed a rally. Did not know we had won until I finally checked my phone and saw 45 texts. I knew something good must have happened. I love (and hate) our MSU superstitions.... silly or not, it's something a lot of us do and believe in.

Middle of the 9th I let my dogs out then sent them to the back with intentions of going with them. For some reason I sat back in my recliner and finished the bottom half of the ninth. Control in hand wanting to turn it off after every out. Looks like my middle of the ninth routine is set for 4 more wins.

Thank you for your sacrifice, bulldog lol

I was messing around on the guitar with 'This Must Be the Place' by The Talking Heads when we started doing better. So, I'll be playing that during the CWS. I mean, I was going to anyway. But it now has the *Mojo*

You guys can thank me.
I had been watching the open and turned over just in time for that 3rd baseman to airmail the dp chance to second.
Knew then with their pitching and that guy you would find a way to pull that one out.

What inning do i turn the Vandy game on tomorrow??

Kudos for our fans staying. Auburn had a very impressive contingent and were loud throughout....well, until the end

Turned mine off after we gifted them the 4th run. Saw on fb that we were mounting a comeback. But knew it was because i "gave up." So i bit it for a few nore mins when i saw someone post that we had finished the deal. Wow what a swing of moods. Im just not heading to omaha. I really didn't wanna get there on time for us to go 0-2 then leave.
