Not the most talented MSU team coming
- Thread starter Zorich 88
- Start date
Yes, our players actually go to class, write their own papers and take tests. It's a great concept, your team should try it sometime.
HehHehHeh!!! Michigan Agricultural College is a fine institution! Just having some fun.
So is your football team.
(Mod's don't ban me. I'm just stopping by and noticed a few posts that I could not pass by. No disrespect meant). Good luck this season Domers.
You guys looked great against Texas. Total man-ball from beginning to end. MSU is untested. We are suspect in the trenches.
Why can't people just have friendly jabs with each other without getting super defensive or offensive?
Anyways, our QB hinted towards a more focused passing attack to take advantage of NDs weakness instead of running it up the gut into stacked boxes every first down. I don't have much faith that's the case, our offense always tries to run first. Would make me happy though.

... our head coach is a mediocre lunatic... Why is it surprising that many in our fan base are like minded?
If you guys survive the first 1/4 it'll probably shape up into a dog fight... Nevada, if they weren't a pee wee team, could have had multiple scores before we woke up. If we come out uninspired, again, we could be in the hole quick. We could also come out flying and force you off your game plan....
PS kelly and bvg stink and help you guys more than us...
I'm guessing we win by at least 10.... Like Twalsh I'll take 1...
I thought about that play in the 2010 game two weeks ago, when Notre Dame blocked Texas's extra-point try late in the fourth quarter. The clock clearly said 0, and I thought for sure they were going to call a delay penalty, but the announcer said the exact same thing as you.
Its ND v MSU. It's gonna be a slobberknocker. In a fight like this, I'll take the team with a superstar. That's ND. And his name is DeShone Kizer.
MSU is an unknown at this point with a lot of new starters and only the Furman game on film. State was penalized 10 times for 120 yards during the Furman game. The penalties extended Furman drives and killed Spartan drives. Dantonio's teams are usually very disciplined so this looks like an anomaly that will be corrected.
As far as the talent on the team I'll defer to Dantonio who recently said he feels it is as deep and talented as any team he has had. This is his tenth year and he's always been a straight shooter in the past.
Notre Dame will be a big test for all the units and we'll all get to assess where they are in 2016. I think State will do fine and it will be a competitve game. The Kizer to #6 combo is the match-up I am most concerned about. Kizer has a good arm, the ability to extend plays with his feet and #6 has great size and speed. A real challenge for a corner back to cover and I'm sure Kelly will look to find ways to get him matched up against a safety deep. Our best chance to try to hog the ball and minimize ND's opportunity to exploit this combo. Hopefully it is an injury free game for both teams and win or lose the Spartans show some promise of being able to compete for the East division.

I hope MSU loses to ND and then beats Michigan by 1,000 points & plants their flag in Harbaugh's khakis.
I hope Harbaugh doesn't stick his finger up his butt and then smell it on TV. Eating his own boogers was bad enough.
Thomas came in as a LB and played LB at State. He then added weight and was moved to DL.
Actually, that's our biggest strengths. ND does have one of the best OL's in the country.
Then once you double McDowell, everyone else can be blocked 1v1. I expect MSU to bring a LB for pressure, a lot.
I listened to kizer talk to the press today SpartanJD and the way he was talking he thinks that our irish can have a field day down the field with your DBs in one on one coverage because of the talent of our wrs
Our defensive secondary is pretty good and experienced. Our DL is the weakness.
He played LB in HS, played FB at State his freshman year a little but I don't recall him ever taking snaps at LB. In any event you were comparing Bullough to Greg Jones and LT. I just think it's a false equivalencancy.
