MSU Must 'Float Back Down To Earth'

  • All Ages Shows said...

    We absolutely must get to 6-6. Yeah, we may be technically bowl eligible at 5-7, but it would feel like a sham.

    Because it doesn't feel like a sham at 6-6?

    6-6 is settling for the fat chick at 2 AM. It's better to go home alone.

  • Beating Minnesota in anything should never be a "program game" under any circumstances unless you are an FCS school.

    But I guess our OC and offense are FCS level so it's fitting.

  • Can't read the article because I am not a paying customer, however I get the gist of it based on the title, responses here, and of course the season we've had.

    Coach D has earned a lot of goodwill and leash from our fanbase and alumni for what he has done here. Despite the fact that we haven't broken the Rose Bowl streak, the success on the field and basic attitude he has brought to the program is very valuable - it has earned him the right to see this thing through.

    Having said that, this disaster of a season falls on him. He brought an aura of arrogance to our program in the offseason that should not have been here, especially since in the grand scheme of things we haven't really done shit (No Rose Bowl.) He took it to Michigan the past four years, yes, but that was under RichRod - he needs to have more respect for them, especially now that they seem to have their shit together. Additionally, this whole trash talking on twitter, interrupting the Michigan Coach during the offseason made him, and us, look really bad. Wouldn't have been bad if we had a good season, but overall this season has been a disaster and it makes him and us look like a Joke really.

    Where's the threat? The threat is above us in the standings and still has a chance to go to a second straight BCS bowl. Call it BS or whatever, but it's true - Coach D's trash talking and the arrogance he brought completely made us look bad.

    Overall I think it will help him in the long run and bring us back down to earth...but damn, this season has been tough and we only have Coach D to blame.

  • Let's see how it goes Saturday. Our offense is a bit better. It would be nice if we went to a bowl and we could use the extra practice. I predict that we move the ball a bit and don't turn it over. We win 23-20.

    Put it on the front page, back page ...

    Seriously though, not sure why he said that after some very well-stated (IMO) thoughts on the team's approach this offseason.

    MD mentions how "next year, MSU must do more working, less talking..."

    Then it appears MD talks about how MSU will beat Minnesota. But it's "not quite a guarantee..." Suggest MD practice what he preaches here - shut up and get to work.
