Look for a lot of zone read plays with GG and Shead. Love seeing GG sprint untouched for a 60+ yard TD.

MSU vs. SMU. MSU has >14,000 2012 fall enrollment. SMU has about 11,000.

Average total cost MSU, $32,000 (out of state), SMU Too high for any of us.

MSU is a member of the Big Sky while SMU is a member of the Exploding Sky, I mean Big East, er, American Athletic conference.

So these schools have some similarities.

MSU are the Bobocats which I think we have done well against as of late (SHSU comes to mind).

MSU has definitely been on the rise enrollment-wise. Our President has vastly improved the universities ability to attract students.

We love our Big Sky conference! Recently we added University of North Dakota, Southern Utah, Cal Poly, and UC Davis from the Great West. Makes the total number of participants 13.

SHSU has been our achilles heel the past couple years. We just don't defend their option attack very well.

Our record attendance for a football game last year was 20,767 due to the bowling out of our endzone and the first ever night game under the lights. Our official capacity at the stadium is 17,777 but most often there are more people packed in there.

Looking forward to play y'all and I hope many of the MSU fans can make the trip to Dallas.

I think this worked out well for both schools as MSU gets a game in Texas where MSU gets a number of players and we get to expand our national exposure to fans in other parts of the country.

I did notice on the MSU website some pretty impressive academic requirements.

Welcome to PonyFans, bozely. Glad to have to have your insight. Hope you can make it down for the game.

(Hint: bring sunscreen, and lots of it.)

Ohhhhh well now you're just asking for this to become a hotties thread! As it was though you were in the Western part of the state... WAYYYYY more granola and it makes for a lot less eye candy. I actually had my brother up here a few years ago and he told me it was "quite the well-kept secret" in regards to the treats he was seeing.

Kind of preachy... but it shows a good portion of the town.

I appreciate it! But unfortunately I won't be making it... bills have me on a leash right now! But I might be able to catch a game next year.

We were all told the same thing! But unfortunately he made some really bad life choices, got pinged for felony burglary, you won't be seeing his punk [deleted] at MSU I don't think. It really is too bad though, he really could have done some amazing stuff with the crew we have this year. That's how it goes with some people I suppose.
