This. All. Day.At least I got to see #1 in football once in my life even if it wasn’t at the end of the season.
Those were the glory years.From 2013-2018, we…
Played in a College World Series Final
Had the #1 Football team in the country
Had a Heisman candidate QB
Played in a NY6 Bowl
Played for the women’s basketball national championship twice
What a run.
And in true Mississippi State fashion, we 17ed every one of those up.
After the 2014 Auburn game I went back to our tailgate and walked off to the side and in a private moment had major dust in my eyes just wishing my dad was alive and there after all the decades of games he and I went to all over the South only to go home pI$$ed off again but to go to the next one and next one every year. My wife walked up and said you're crying aren't you and I said no I'm talking to Dad leave me alone and she did, and understood without even asking after 29 years of marriageI’m sure this goes for a lot of people, not to get all sentimental and ****, just wish dad would’ve been standing next to me to see it.
And the FIRST #1 in the new system.At least I got to see #1 in football once in my life even if it wasn’t at the end of the season.
Yep. Or Goat or 85Bears. I’m sure it will be Salmon’s fault if we celebrate that occasionIt should make every single one of us happy. If it didn't you are one sad SOB.
86 was good the first 6 gamesI will never forget late in the third quarter when my 10 year old nephew (sophomore @ MSU now) that we had started taking to football games when he was 2 years old looked at me & said "Uncle WGD, are you crying?" I told him that I hoped that he would never understand the 40 years of frustration of MSU fandom that was overcome in that moment. Unfortunately the kid clearly understands now because he is watching a $h!t-show the last two years comparable to what I watched 84-88 while a student.
When I was at State, we went to multiple CWS’s, won the West and played in the SEC Championship, beat Bama 3 years in a row, and went to a Sweet 16 and Final Four.Those were the glory years.
Then it was Lucifer's domain for the last four!86 was good the first 6 games
Damn, were we roommates??***When I was at State, we went to multiple CWS’s, won the West and played in the SEC Championship, beat Bama 3 years in a row, and went to a Sweet 16 and Final Four.
