From Camp Randall to the MASH Tent
2026/10/05
The football team have been absolutely manhandled by a mid-tier B10 team. We talk about the game, the state of the program, and what hope we may have moving forward. Fortunately we have basketball, hockey, and women's soccer to cleanse the palate.
And you guys have a lot to say in Social Media Questions

"I’ve seen it. I have the dvd. I’m so tired"
2026/09/29
A demoralizing loss to Nebraska at home. How do we recalibrate with the (now confirmed to be season-ending) injury to Cam Edwards? What other hobbies can we pick up while we wait for basketball?
Also, where does MSU sit, really, in the B10 when measured by spend? What is our real peer group.
Free Athletic article, for reference.
