Well if you care about your university, you don't. Unless you prefer a few 100k viewers as opposed to a few million.

Link me to how this makes US any more money -- or otherwise helps MSU in any tangible fashion? Guess I missed the memo on the huge recruiting boost from all those Thursday games we've played over the past 5 years...

I pay a portion of a $3k tailgate setup that now only leaves us with TWO Saturday SEC home games. It's bullshite to be stuck playing HALF OUR CONFERENCE HOME GAMES on Thursday. You couldn't script a worse tailgating year -- or a worse schedule overall.

So, I "don't care about my university" because I LOVE this game being on Saturday -- with that Friday being opening day of duck season in MS when practically everyone is off work -- and us having traditional hunting spots for opening day on public lands in both Oxford and Starkville and planning those hunting trips surrounding the game?
