MSU students given the day off for the big game. Plaske and Ryan are drilling the president. Really? Was I dreaming? Or, is this not a common thing at schools?

Of course it's common, it's fricking thursday. What do they expect? THOUSANDS of people to flood the campus while students are going to and from class, going to work, etc, etc? It would be a logistical nightmare and isn't worth having 1 lousy day of class that most people won't go to anyway.

it's not so much as giving the students the day off as it is probably giving the university the ability to lock all the doors to buildings on campus they don't want traffic in

ESPN is the reason for Thursday night football, yet they have a problem with colleges doing what is necessary to make it happen.

Most of the ESPN guys went to Syracuse or Maryland and know dick shite about big time college football.

Those tards don't realize that Campus would have been a cluster today if they had class. This is the SEC where football is King.

Plaske said if he were paying tuition for his kid to attend MSU he would be on the horn with the president ASAP questioning his priorities. Obviously he went to a non SEC school. Baylor!

Bob Ryan said it was just bad timing with all of the negative attention surrounding the NCAA..... Boston College!

That is bullshite........they have to fill time on that show so they're gonna find anything possible to bitch about since ratings would suck if they all agreed on things

It makes sense to cancel classes for numerous reasons one being, let's face it, nobody's gonna go to class anyways

ETA: btw they're talkin about it on PTI rite now

Georgia Tech doesn't cancel class on Thursday gamedays (trust me, we had a bunch).

Some of the cooler professors might let you off though.

Remember, academics first (2nd), football second (1st).

Dunno. Arkansas has never had a Thursday night game on campus.

I can see why a school would shut down though. All the parking lots on campus have to be vacated by midnight on Fridays for home games for football parking and tailgating. So yes, I can see why classses should be canceled.

if msu had not cancelled classes there would be some other guys on one of the other million espn t.v/radio show questioning state's sec football manhood.

FWIW, Auburn didn't cancel class for the championship game until terrible weather moved in and I promise you this, the weather WAS bad enough to cancel class. I don't agree with them having class if MSU/LSU fans are already on campus tailgating and walking into buildings.

I saw that. What a couple of pretentious assholes. Some people get so wrapped up in symbolism and appearances they forget how to live.

They're just showing their SEC envy.

I've never cared for that show. PTI's okay, but ATH...

I'm betting you'd find that one or both of them went to either Syracuse or Northwestern.
