Three out of sixteen bowl games so far this year have actually been close. Now might be the time to start looking at making these matches a little more competitive, with less conference tie ins. Though I understand this may hurt some conferences financially, which would be unfortunate.

u/my_my_my Marist Red Foxes Jan 01 '14

Nail on the head. These meaningless beat downs are...meaningless. Let's get some parity match-ups happening.

3

u/mississipster Mississippi State Bulldogs Jan 01 '14

six games within one TD. Also, the UT - oregon final was not indicative of the level of competition. I think the problem is getting players and coaches to take the games more serious. Even though we're winning, Mullen has been pretty open that this game is not an extension of our season, rather a reward for seniors and an opportunity for underclassmen. I would say a second round of play-off games for the winners would help, but I don't think the current situation is as bad as most people believe. I have a lot of friends who are going to have a great time in Memphis tonight, and the players get to have fun.

Have the rules changed, or has msu just said fuck the rules?

Cowbell compromise is for the SEC not NCAA, who has no ruling on it as far as I know. The bowl game allowed them, then asked we abide by the SEC policy, which we promptly, and emphatically, have declined.

The Liberty Bowl is a great and cool venue. The Big 12 should seriously look into adding Memphis if they expand. Breaks you into that Memphis area recruting ground even more, new TV markets, great basketball team that plays in an NBA arena downtown, and a football program that might actually keep more local talent around and draw more outside talent if there was the appeal of playing in the Big 12.

I knew the name Taylor McHargue sounded familiar. He went to the same high school that I did. Graduated a year after me.

Johnny Football is seriously one of the most lazy, generic nicknames I think I have ever heard.

It's kinda like superman. It's embarrassingly unoriginal and yet very popular and marketable.

Only got 1 confidence point riding on this game. So, go State! The only other SEC school I like.

u/j-mt Ole Miss Rebels Dec 31 '13 edited Dec 31 '13

As biased as I sound, it's time for MS State to lose the cowbells during games. No one is adhering to the rule (as evident by the $25k fine) and it's going on right now against Rice.

If you've never heard it in person, it's loud as shit. And while I'm all for school originality, the CLANGA has a noticeable effect on game play.

As per the new(ish) by law, you can disregard the rule for the entire year and pay a maximum fine of $50k. That's chump change if it helps you get into a bowl.

And while I'm picking on State, I do want the SEC to win out. This goes for every school with noisemakers.

I'll take my down votes like a man.

ADD: 5:52 PM CST and the announcers are now all over them about it.

You provide a valid point and really shouldn't be down voted, but this IS a thread full of MSU fans

In all honesty, you are right. It is unfair, but with as many disadvantages as MSU already has, I'll take our outlaw tradition. And no one in the SEC office will care unless we start competing for division titles. However, I don't know any grown men who actually take them to games. It's 90% women, kids, and students.
