I have no idea why, but apparently we are driving up to E. Lansing for the game on Saturday. The only pro's on the pro con list are "why the fuck not?" and "we'd be stupid NOT to". Everything else says this is a terrible idea.

If anyone is interested in making the pilgrimage, tickets are dirt cheap right now. Ours are $33 each and they are low in the upper-level near the 20-yard line.

Everybody talks about that 1974 game, but my worst /best memory was from 1972. My cousin and his Air Force buddy had just returned from Vietnam and they had an extra ticket for me. We drove to east Lansing in my cousins' friend's 340 duster, 4 speed hurst shifter, after market ram air, rough cam. They were still in war mode, and were trying to pick fights with the entire MSU student body. I am 15 years old and sure that I am going to die. We lost the game, and my cousin and his buddy drank an entire bottle of ancient age that they smuggled into the stadium. They were both too drunk to drive and passed out in the car. So I drive that freaking beast back to Columbus on my learners permit, no maps, and about 30 minutes of prior standard transmission experience on a ford tractor. I have never been so happy as when I found 23 south. Sadly my cousin died 2 years ago, but I will remember that trip to east Lansing for the rest of my days.

Weather report continuing to get worse...I think there's a good chance this game is going to be closer than many of you think. 43 degrees with rain and 30mph wind doesn't usually lead to 40+ points.

Goodness...

This whole weather thing does not bode well for my confidence. I think there'd be a meltdown in Columbus if we lose, yet again, to Michigan State. A 3-7 Michigan State no less. This would make scUM's loss look like nothing. Jesus. Literally, Jesus. I don't care if we get into the Playoffs. At this point I just want to win these next two games. And for PSU to lose to Rutgers. Well, and fuck, I lied. I do want us to make it to the Playoffs.

Everyone wear your lucky underwear.

I hope you don't mind, I shared this with a few of my friends. It was such a good story not to pass along. My condolences on your loss. What a great memory looking back (well, except the OSU loss of course)

If the weather is as bad as it looks like it might be, I just wanna get out of there with a win. [Mark May] weather is a great equalizer and gives Sparty a chance. I'll be shocked if this is more than a 10 point win.

Agreed, plus Sparty will undoubtely pound the rock at us just like they did last year to shorten the game. We can't afford offensive play calling gaffes with the limited amount of plays we will get.
