There was some discussion regarding the Snowbowl 12 celebration (?) going on for the State vs A&M game last week.

The narrative being put out by some State fans was that A&M was all on board and agreed to commemorating the game.

An interview with Jason Cook (VP of Marketing for A&M, MSU Alum) on College Station radio, Cook stated that there was no interest on the A&M side in commemorating that game and that he actually worked with Adidas and ESPN on the black unis in an attempt to try to "steal the spotlight".

So if any of you still believe that A&M was all into the idea and that we "agreed" to is, you are being fed a load of crap by someone.

What do you call commemorating a win over your opponent in one of the most irrelevant bowl games there is?

first off it wasnt irrelevant. it was a very cool bowl game. i remember the bowl vividly and i am not a fan of either team. and msu was the home team so i have no problem with them commemorating it.

it was relevant to msu's bowl history. im not sure how anyone could have a problem with them honoring it. you destroyed them and yall are still acting like little brats. congrats on that i suppose.

So if Alabama wears jerseys next year that say 1/9 on the back, LSU doesn't have the right to do something in response? Just because you're the home, doesn't mean you have to commemorate shite.

they have the right (just like a&m), but it would be pretty pathetic on lsu's part (just like it was on a&m's).

"steal the spotlight"


The fact that A&M acknowledged a "spotlight" to be stolen proves they hold an equally distorted view of the significance of that Independence Bowl.
