trolls roll through every now and then to throw down some auto-negs.

I am interested in the Michigan State v. Maryland game this weekend.  In conjunction with a serious look ahead to OSU, a Nebraska hangover, and what will be a half filled stadium at most, I sense an undercurrent of problems over in Lansing right now.

always got the feeling this year that the levees could break on them given the right circumstances.  That thing made their fan base forget about a couple of laughably bad performances that proceeded it, and even the Indiana game was really ugly for them if you actually watched it.  I don't know how much longer that duck tape is going to hold.

i agree theyre not as good as some recent sparty teams but theyre still a pretty decent squad.  their back 7 has been significantly weaker than past teams and theyre not covering it up very well.  and while they have great QB and some good receivers, they dont have that pro RB theyve produced lately and their OL has been injured and playing poorly.

not trying to defend sparty, just commenting theyre not the tire fire some suggest based on threads / comments.  though id love to see a total meltdown in east lansing

Sparty controls their own destiny in the B1G.  Sure they're pissed off, but they still have a lot to play for.  I think they roll Maryland and lose a hard fought one to OSU (my mind can not fathom any other outcome in that one!).

Mark Dan-Tony-o. Man with three highly common first names followed by the most bland general reactive statement in the English dictionary. I can't believe I haven't seen this before. This now makes so much more sense!
