Our fans ***** about not getting P5 teams to Hattiesburg, then when we sign a 2-1 deal with an in-state SEC team, we still complain.

We've played MSU 29 times. Only 5 of those games were in Hattiesburg. Not like we were playing them at MMRS regularly even in our heyday.

State has also signed 2-1 deals with USA and Tech. Like it or not, these schools are our peers now. And this is different in that we're going to get paid for the first game.

I think it's great that none of these games are season openers too. Instead of a summer of smack, we get maybe a week or two. We'll have a better idea of what our team is like heading into these games. And the last game being in Hattiesburg is a plus IMO. That will probably be our best chance to get a W (just because it's at home). Rather win in 2024 and not play them for a couple years than win in 2023 and then get beat in 2024 in Starkville.

I'll wait to see what the buyout and the guarantee is, but right now I see no real negatives.

Why aren't we playing 2 for 2? Why won't State play a 4th game here?? And why the hell are the first 2 games there?? They'll cancel the 3rd game and y'all know it.

Virginia, Kansas, Kentucky will do a 1 for 1....why can't we keep this model? Hell, wasn't the Nebraska a 1 for 1 until we had to sell one for eloss??

If OM or MSU don't wanna do home and homes then I say peace out.

I went to every one of them in JXN back in the '80s.....the 7-6 game was as good as it gets....

I'm cool with this....by the time it gets to the 2nd game, there won't be the SEC as one knows it today....

it's a chess move of the right kind....

Aren't we also doing a home and home with BYU? What is so special about a bottom feeder SEC school that they demand a 2 for 1. I expect that from a team like Louisville, VT, or Nebraska...not MSU.


RE: A 2 for 1???? Are you kidding me?? - BeagleUSM - 08-08-2017 08:18 PM

State is 20-20 in SEC play since realignment. Better than Auburn, Tennessee, and Arkansas. If we signed a 2-1 deal with any of those schools, everyone would be thrilled. This isn't Croom's MSU, sadly.

And the Nebraska was a 2-1 deal before we sold the 2013 game to Lincoln.

Historically we played them at Jackson or Starkville almost exclusively. But don't let facts get in the way of complaining.

...because you tiny, soft, not fully developed head full of feces, the extra game up there gives us money we need to survive.....we wanted it this way...they did not "demand" crap.........................dumbasss!


RE: A 2 for 1???? Are you kidding me?? - TTT - 08-08-2017 08:37 PM

Y'all are idiots. We just did a home and home with state!!! Why agree to a 2 for 1??? This does nothing but show our administration is WEAK and/or stupid. If we can do home and homes with Kentucky, UVA, Kansas, and BYU then why can't MSU? If they won't then screw em. We'll find another low level P5 school who will do a home and home.


RE: A 2 for 1???? Are you kidding me?? - TTT - 08-08-2017 08:39 PM

And y'all forget that the first 2 games are there!!! We don't play Hattiesburg till the year 2476. Bad deal that makes us look weak.

And we only have 5 home games in '19. Guess we should praise our administration for that as well. But y'all continue to pump that sunshine eeeediots. Just go ahead and change the name of this board to BGN 2.0.

It is not a smart move, Stink. Very disappointed in yet another weak AD.

I understand your sentiment.....however, I don't think the SEC exists after '20-22 when the tv money dries up/renegotiated when the NoFunLeague creates the flagship school minor league version....

we have a few years to wait out that next phase....hell, Saban has already said as much.....and there's no way moo-who makes the cut.....

I only see one game and dollars....everything downstream will be a free-for-all

you know how I think about thingys.....

when we were indy, we sometimes only had 3.....4 was the exception.....
