The P1FCU Kibbie Dome. I’m not going to attempt to pronounce that name because it will come out sounding dirty.

Heard Willie Patterson said that Tommy Mellott has made significant improvements since the end of last season.

Also, Zac Crews looking very solid. And, Ifanse thinks MSU has its act together for more than sjsu.

I think if MSU can either get more ‘rhythmic’ in its passing game or take a step above where it was defensively, then it will be another strong season. They’ll most likely need one or the other to navigate that tough road schedule with a winning record.

If Patterson’s assessment is on, then one area could be covered. A few insiders think the pass rush will be substantially better.

A couple of things to watch for during preseason camp, which is just six weeks away.


MSU - 16 team National Champions (most recent 2024); 57 individual National Champions (most recent 2023).

I was wondering if we’ve seen the last of any incoming players. I haven’t seen any new offers lately and the guys who still have/had offers seem to be looking elsewhere or don’t fit the Cats needs.

Finish it just in time to use it after they lose their first round playoff game.

This has nothing to do with anything other than SFA is an FCS school...

The best part is the rest of his thread where he posts clips from TV/movies.

Well he sure showed her. I wonder if he'll go back to being a volunteer now. :D

Thanks for sharing this. Really cool.

To me, this was one of the greatest moments for me as a fan. The Rivalry is so special and every year Cat/gris week is incredible. But, that whole week was so amped up with Gameday coming to town. We got there pretty early, I think around 6am. The energy was awesome. We bounced back and forth from our tailgate to try and take in as much as possible. Then for the game to be an absolute piss pounding was the cherry on top. I truly get emotional just thinking about that day. In recent memory the only things that come close to that day are 2019 Cat/gris, the semifinal win against SDSU, and going to Frisco. Gameday was just so so special!!! I will always be incredibly thankful to all those who made it come together.

Omar, the best #68 in the country. Pretty awesome for a guy that didn't even start most of the time. I think that'll change this year.

2nd hardest road schedule based on oppontent's win % but #1 is Harvard who plays a bunch of teams that don't go to the playoffs so we essentially have the hardest road schedule in the country. I'm shocked we didn't make the easiest home schedule top 5.

I am not sure this is really a ranking. It is basically a list in order of opponents winning percentage from last year. No way is either Harvard’s or Elon’s schedule tougher than MSU’s.

And all you hear from the people over west is that we have an easy schedule this year. But they will say this is false information 🙄🙄

I wish they published the rankings by the 4 categories (hardest and easiest home and road schedules). I bet we have the greatest disparity between home and road in the country.
