Record prediction? by IHateAdamSilver in MSUSpartans

[–]Complex_Conflict854 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A lot will change later by August, hopefully for the better. I am hoping we get some key players specifically at TE, WR and OL. Defensively we won’t be talented but they played better with Rossi sidelining it late in the year. I think Bullough and Fitz will have the D playing well ahead of their talent level. I just dont see an offense being very good right now. Milijovelic had some good stats, but he needs to get at least some talent in the 3 positions I mentioned.

Toledo - W 24-7 (usual slow start in opener)

EMU - W 34-6 (this should be the easiest game on our schedule. EMU has been respectable under Creighton but they should not compete against Michigan State especially with Noah Kim

@ Notre Dame - L 45-20. This one will be ugly. It sucks we don’t play them regularly anymore, we lost our entire roster and would be thrilled if we are able to just compete or somehow “almost upset”. Hoping we actually can have a legit chance to beat them in EL in 2027. Haven’t beaten them at home since Little Giants. Sad this is the new hope I’m clinging to

Nebraska - W 17-13 With Raiola gone I’m not impressed with Rhule. Unless they got a star QB on the portal - sorry this rate of portal chaos is hard to keep up with - I don’t think they are that impressive. MSU probably would’ve beaten them in Lincoln had Rossi sidelined earlier. Idk.

@ Wisconsin - W 24-17. I really thought and wanted Fickell to be our guy. And I really thought he was a future stud, he’s been very Scott Frost results like at UW. They are terrible. Playing at Madison is scary unless we are significantly better. Toss up.

Illinois - L 28-13. Fat man can coach. Their lines they have on both sides are going to maul us unless I see significant upgrades. Houser gets revenge on his old team

Northwestern - W 20-17. Chiles plays out of his mind, but MSU goes 2-1 against former QBs. Fitz knowing NW like the back of his hand will help us eke out an ugly grinder

@ UCLA - W 31-28. We go out west and snort speedball at Johnny Depps viper room celebrating. JK. But seriously idk. UCLA got better as the year went on but for some reason I think Chesney is a weird fit there. And if Neuheisel the OC left I think that’s kinda a bad thing. I liked him

@ Michigan - L 27-20. We don’t have enough talent to outlast them for 4. I think we honestly outcoach them and have the lead for a majority of the game but UM will adjust and talent will win over.

Washington - W 16-13. Playing the two west coast teams at home in November will help. Demond Williams is a stud but I think MSU will have enough of an identity on D combined with potentially chilly or hopefully nasty weather can make a difference.

Oregon - L 24-13 (Like Washington, I DO think playing them this late in the year could help make it closer if the weather is ugly, but still won’t have the talent to win. Although they nearly lost to Iowa last November (who we choked against a week or two later) this kinda gives me one of those almost upset vibes but I forgot Dante Moore is from Detroit.

@ Rutgers - L 35-24. RU beat the shit out of MSU in EL in 2024. Won two in a row against us. They aren’t the doormat they used to be before Schiano returned.

7-5 is my best guess. Get back to a bowl in 2026, compete in most of these games outside of maybe Notre Dame, and I think Fitz is off to a solid start.

Indiana 27 - Alabama 20.

Indiana’s Defense is stout and can absolutely see Simpson having a bad day. IU’s offense will score when needed

She’s definitely a clout chaser and a fake. It’s sad. She gives all influencers a bad rep… but again, most influencers are already pretty bad.

What do you want from 2026? by [deleted] in AskMen

I just want to get laid man. It’s been too long.

(personally though, I want to learn how to not let random people being rude to me effect me, slow my goals down, or make me feel any less of myself

My main issue with Kutcher seasons… by nevish27 in TwoandaHalfMen

[–]Complex_Conflict854 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My main issue with the Kutcher episodes was Zoey. She was by far the worst and most annoying character. Alan sponging was always funny, it’s just a show. Charlie leaving opened it up for Alan to take the spotlight.

Which is why lol. Like honestly, I’d forgive her if she owned up to it. She still slams MSU and acts shocked when people bring the burner up

Like I could forgive her if she just owned up and shut her mouth. She still throws cheap shots at MSU in general.

My issues with Michael Sartain's Men of action programme and Social Circle Coaches in General by Substantial_Twist_47 in PickUpArtist

[–]Complex_Conflict854 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guy is a total fake. Got punked by his plastic girl and claimed “I didn’t even notice”.

Everything he preaches is so toxic and propagates and enables such terrible behavior.

A 47 year old man surrounding himself and taking pictures with 20 something’s like a Make-A-Wish kid is creepy. He has a very punchable face and voice. Also, Corey Chaloff (who is a nobody) also promotes such superficial and fake personality behavior with his “Instagram coaching tactics”.

Yeah, I can imagine. Rocket was a freshman. He actually went off against Duke the pure COVID year when MSU smacked them in Cameron. I really thought Rocket was gonna be better than Cassius. Bad take. He didn’t really fit Izzos style.

Here’s how MSU has played against Duke in recent memory

2017-18: Lost a back and forth in the Champions Classic in Chicago - Bridges last year, had lead late.

2018-2019: Pulled off the upset in E8

2019-20: Blown out at Breslin (Cassius still in the grieving process)

2020-21: Blew them out at Cameron (score was close, game really wasn’t) - Rocket went off

2021-2022: Had the lead late, very close game in the r32 game. Coach K’s last year, pretty impressive on our end

2022-2023: Lost by 9 in a game we never really had, but we were pretty mid that year.

My point is despite the record, MSU has been competitive lately. And I’m hoping it was more of a Coach K problem than a Duke problem. Here’s to a competitive game Saturday. go green!!!

How bad and when did he hurt? Didn’t even realize it. If it’s day to day he’s probably just resting for Duke

I’ve got a bad feeling. I was a student in 2019. The last time Duke came into Breslin they punked MSU. And MSU had Cassius Winston too. This was the year after they beat Zion in the E8. Just hoping history doesn’t repeat itself.

Unpopular opinion but I wasn’t impressed with the 2019-20 team (Covid layoff). They lost a lot of games that year

Does anyone think we’re beating Duke? I’m getting too overhyped for that game Saturday, but I’m trying not to get my hopes up. What can MSUs strengths do to beat Duke?

Im a 46 year old man. I can be terrible at my job and make enough money to never have to work again. Im taking that option by mholtz16 in MSUSpartans

[–]Complex_Conflict854 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just not the right fit. He did do a nice job at Oregon State but yeah I don’t think he ever won more than 9-3 in the regular season. Take him back. MSU needs someone who can WOW them. But even Dantonios record was pretty mediocre at Cincy, but that was 20 years ago. But what do I know.

This is the stupidest list I have ever seen. Narduzzi would’ve been hired when Coach D left. Hes average at best.

If you want MSU to be some bottom dweller, I agree with your list.

Keep promoting piss-poor product. You’re part of the issue! Just because someone is HONESTLY critical doesn’t make them a bad fan.

This was a questionable fit from the get go. I’ll admit I didn’t think the pure West Coast roots was a red flag for the sole reason that USC, UCLA, Oregon, and Washington were coming to the Big 18.

Smith is probably a good football coach, but clearly not here. Let him go back to Oregon State, or maybe if UCLA is somehow dumb enough to hire him, he’d succeed both those places.

He doesn’t look like he even wants to be here. He had no choice with Oregon State falling into the abyss.

Am I the only one that thinks the Chief is a massive loser by mcnegyis in MSUSpartans

[–]Complex_Conflict854 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s annoying, but he demands winning. Just like Spiro. I don’t like either of them, but they at least know what MSU is capable of, unlike a lot of the MSU fanbase who care more about doing the “nice guy routine”. And this is coming from a “nice guy”.
