unfortunately there has been only one sparty no moment, the 38-0
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:52 PM ^
no, No, NO!!!
We do NOT need individual Sparty threads on MGoBlog...just make a thread for all CFB games tonight. MSU vs. Furman isn't special, MSU vs. OSU or MSU vs. ND is certainly understandable for obvious reasons. Just like last night when 3 App St./Tenn threads pop up because the first thread was devoted to the B1G.
Just make it all college football and keep the conversation in one thread. This way MSU vs. Furman folks can get the score of say...KSU vs. Stanford and vice versa. Can't we all just be together?
What's wrong with the old fashioned "College Football Open Thread?"

Call me crazy, but I prefer our rivals undefeated when we play them, the better by which to humiliate them.
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:43 PM ^
I prefer our rivals questioning their manlihood after humiliating defeats against teams far inferior to them.
September 3rd, 2016 at 6:12 AM ^
Manlihood?
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:46 PM ^
Crazy. I don't think us beating an undefeated MSU would be more humiliating than them losing to a 4-9 FCS team...
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:03 PM ^
F that. I hope they lose tonight and next Saturday to "bye".
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:13 PM ^
Byes!
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:36 PM ^
F that? Then you proceed to agree with me? Did I miss something?
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:32 PM ^
the Christan Knights over the Palladins.

For some reason I want the Buckeyes undefeated, but I want sparty to lose every game.
September 2nd, 2016 at 8:20 PM ^
we can't even talk about that until we...uh...i'll see myself out.

Last I heard, most predictive sites were optimistically giving Furman about a 1.0% chance of winning, and I think that might only be because giving an answer less than one would just look weird on the page.
However, it is a non-zero chance, however small, right?
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:38 PM ^
so I wouldn't get my hopes up. F

Furman's not a mid-major that might be good. They're more likely to be closer to Baby Seal U. Maybe Furman can receive the opening kickoff and keep it tied for five minutes.
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:42 PM ^
Furman actually beat the team we play next weekend.
Yes, UCF is that bad.
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:46 PM ^
The year before they won 9 games. Don't know what to make of UCF.
Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:00 PM ^
Meh. Regardless of how good or bad they are, I hope we beat them by 70 because Scott Frost is their coach.
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:04 PM ^
I don't think them going 0-12 last year and losing to a bottom of the barrel FCS team was a fluke.
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:32 PM ^
And yet, while Michigan was struggling to win five games in 2014, UCF won nine. 2013, with Michigan struggling to seven wins, UCF had 12. Those aren't flukes either.
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:58 PM ^
Blake Bortles
September 2nd, 2016 at 8:57 PM ^
than that and just imploded/mailed it in.
I don't follow them, but I think just brooming the coach that obviously lost the team and bring in a new coach gets them 3 or 4 wins this year. (Without even knowing anything about the coach.)
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:29 PM ^
Even with that, from 2007-2015 Central Florida has a better over all record. Over the last ten seasons the record is more even with both teams having 73 wins and UM with 51 losses edging out CF with their 56.
I don't know how much zero losses had to do with an aged HC taking extra naps or they just don't have the players. This I do know, Scott Frost will hold nothing back and will have his boys prepared as well as possible to meet Michigan. Besides, I love the indirect historical significance of Scott Frost coaching a team against Michigan.
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:30 PM ^
A +1 is waiting for you if you change the title to Friday night football or the like. Friday night early games, something like that. Colorado also plays tonight and are on the schedule
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:35 PM ^
Beat me by 4 minutes.
+1 to you, sir
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:46 PM ^
for a ranked team facing a team that has a chance in the realm of possibility of winning. (Stanford is favored by 11.5, if memory serves).
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:31 PM ^
I will take very little from this game. They have not looked good in any of their openers the last several years or heck in any of their years. They show weaknesses and holes in their opener yet by mid October they are rolling along. I will just watch and root for Furman but won't get too excited if msu looks like garbage tonite.
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:58 PM ^
Watch their OL. I know the DL lacks depth for them but I'm not as familiar there, but their D could be fine. But with a new QB and little experience at WR, the run game will be essential. Scott is a very good back, but if they can't block and can't throw it won't matter. Their OL is very thin, and I think the starting tackles are weak. Pass pro is probably going to be a bigger concern. And if one of the starting tackles goes down, they approach Doom very quickly.
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:08 PM ^
Admittedly Furman won't show much.
September 3rd, 2016 at 6:41 AM ^
imaginary +1 to you.
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:34 PM ^
Watching with my evil brother the msu fan... Ready to go to the big house tomorrow!
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:34 PM ^
Change title to Friday Night Open Thread?
Stanford vs. Kansas State later
Colorado vs. Colorado State
(I don't want to mention that team down in Waco; they don't get recognition on this board)
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:36 PM ^
Caught part of the MSU pregame show on the radio and what do you know? Logically, they were talking about Michigan. Taking shots at the satellite camps and "just not understanding" all the hype. It's like okay guys, I thought OSU was your main rival now.
Tyler O'Connor throws 3 picks tonight.
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:40 PM ^
Let's hope for a SPARTY NOOOOOOO!
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:41 PM ^
Why are you listening to their propaganda station?
September 2nd, 2016 at 7:02 PM ^
I usually have my car tuned to the local ESPN affiliate. So, when I started my car instead of ESPN, I got propaganda.
September 2nd, 2016 at 6:41 PM ^

Just flipped over to BTN to see band play their pre-game. Threw up in my mouth a little.
