Glad to see they actually have us making a bowl now. The pre-season prognosticators took a giant L on the MSU predictions this season. ...and that's even if you leave out the guy that said we were one of the worst 10 Power 5 teams in the country.

10-2 would be a great season.

Was that in an article or on that other board? Or did I say it?

That game will be so intense. Husband and I are going to struggle with bad hangovers on Halloween.

Both have MSU in the Outback Bowl vs. Texas A&M.

They split on Iowa/Penn State in the CFP.

Well, they were wrong about that. We played Western Kentucky after week 4. The Citrus Bowl wasn’t even played after week 4.

I’m just saying that’s a pretty obvious thing to miss, yet you didn’t post anything about it.

For GreenWay

So, anyway, is there a place where you can look at how accurate these guys were last year? I mean if they keep changing their predictions until the last week of the season, most of us could give you a lineup. Lets see where these guys predicted everyone after the 5th week last year and see how accurate they were.

by **Turtleneck** 04/10/21, 10:26 pm

Exactly. Plus 5-7 will not get a team in a NYD bowl so it's really just clickbait stuff.

Keep clicking on this thread though.

For important updates.

The guy in the athletic picked MSU to be in the playoff. I do not care that it’s just the kind of pick you make after week six on the off chance you’re right so you can say “look I was right” but if you’re wrong then no one remembers week 6 bowl projections so you can just pretend you never said it, it still gives me the warm and fuzzies

Maybe. The pass protection issues and Thornes bad decisions under pressure feel like they are going to cost them one or two. Not this week though.

by **Turtleneck** 10/11/21, 02:11 pm

Maybe the game that never happened happens after all.

The geezer in me would be happy with a trip to Pasadena.

by **Turtleneck** 10/11/21, 02:39 pm

I would prefer that based on location alone. Those Florida bowls are kinda boring at this point and they change names every 10-20 years.

10-20? That's pretty ambitious!

to make those bowl games do they need to beat PSU bob

Who is PSU bob, is he related to Spartan bob the stadium timekeeper?

I would guess a NY6 game (like the Fiesta) would require a win over Penn State.

I'll never advocate for violence and I certainly can't speak on behalf of what needs to happen to PSU bob, but.. in other news..

That seems to the prevailing predictions. I love it. I'm glad we dumped ND from the regular schedule (get in the conf or gtfo), but playing them is always a game I get fired up for.

by **MiamiSpartan** 28/11/21, 04:44 pm

A bowl would likely absolutely love an MSU v ND renewal of the rivalry. There is a ton to market there.
