2024 Schedule
- Thread starter dawgnabit
- Start date
That doesn't seem especially better or worse to me.
On paper I agree it’s brutal. But in reality, those 4 home games games that can be won. Georgia is a lost no matter where it’s played. OM is a toss up. Texas could be starting a freshman QB in manning and who knows about TN. I’m not ready to declare they are back with one good year.
With that said, obviously, all 4 road games could easily be lost.

This is the third time we’ve played Georgia in five years. We’ve played Missouri twice since they joined the SEC.
Yea, I didn’t understand everyone flipping out about playing Bama every year, because when you don’t this is what you get
This is much more winnable than are traditional schedule. Plus the road game options are fresh!
Wish we could trade UGA or UT for Vandy or KY but no Bama, no LSSu, no Auburn.
Being in the SEC has always and will always be brutal for State

I initially freaked but GA is Bama and TN is LSU so might be a little tougher depending on TX and FL but not as bad as I originally thought when I saw it.
We're about to play both of them every other year.
MSU needed to only get one of Georgia, Alabama, & LSU. I like that schedule.
Didn’t do Ole Miss any favors either. That home schedule is brutal and no gimmies on the road either.
For those who argued that the SEC Office would give Saban whatever he wanted, Bama got one of the most difficult draws. I believe he may want to consider retirement prior to 2024.
In 2025, we'll probably play the 7 teams we don't get in 2024, plus Ole Miss, unless they move to a 9-game schedule by then.
Nothing easy about State or OM schedules. 4-6 of these SEC opponents will possibly be ranked in the top 10 at any given point. Throw a quality power 5 NC game in the mix and it will be interesting.
Don’t worry. They, of course, get Missouri at home and Vandy on the road.Alabama’s response…
And no Auburn...for you youngsters at one time it was Alabama, Auburn, LSU and OM...called the November Nightmare. This is a relief.
I think it’s pretty clear the SEC wanted to give the 2 new teams a marque home game with Bama at Oklahoma & Georgia at Texas. Our schedule is OK. Not good, but not too bad either. First time in over 70 years to not play Bama, Auburn or LSU.
Last time Bama wasn’t on the schedule was 1943. We’re living in historic times.
It is honestly an exciting schedule. It is tough, but this is the SEC. I get to watch the football team in person for first time in a long time.
That home schedule is bad from an attendance and Starkville economy standpoint.
Plus we’re @Tempe that season. Throw in 3 terrible non-conf opponents, and that could be the lowest attendance average we’ve had in many moons. None of those opposing fan bases will sell out their allotment.

I'm just ready for a change from the ordinary. Aside from the coaching changes, things just feel stale. Maybe this will bring back some excitement? For me at least.
Would love to trade switch Tenn and Arky. Arky is very winnable at their place. And Tenn would switch to a toss up in Stark. And we’d have a damn atmosphere.
We’re gonna have 5-6 11am kicks.
We are Alabama's most common SEC opponent. LSU and Alabama rank as our 2-3rd most common SEC opponent. Times are a changing.
Oops. I should have said ‘in the regular season’ since they’re pretty likely to be our opponent in Atlanta after we wreck Georgia’s dreams.***
I like it for the most part. It would have been nice to get an easy opponent in there somewhere. Overall it’s new teams and not the same old same old.
