on any of three TDs or does he kick two field goals?

We have about as much chance winning this game as Carlson has kicking two field goals.

that Wayne Madkin has some eligibility left? (Of course QB isn't our biggest problem, but still.)

but I listened to Rubber Soul the night before the 2001 Egg Bowl, a game in which we were also underdogs I believe, and we pulled that one out.

(And in the end the love you take is equal to...the love you make)

Loud as hell, alot of cowbells, Mario Haggan getting nice cheap shot on Eli, Josh Morgan spitting in Terrance Metcalfe's face. Good times.

if someone made a deal with the devil or something before that game.

We won the game but:

It pissed Khayat off to the point that the NCAA launched a 3 year investigation (Seriously? A THREE year investigation? Who has that happen to them?)

LT did nothing about it, hired Croom and to pay JWS had to get funds illegally, which ultimately cost him his job.

JWS ultimately had his legacy at MSU tarnished because of the next two seasons, and part of the reason he was allowed to stay was because of the 2001 Egg Bowl, before finally losing his job.

Kevin Fant, who outplayed Eli that game and looked like a legit QB, and maybe played the best game I have ever seen by a MSU QB, career was ultimately ruined by a morbidly obese RB, WR's who couldn't catch, a horrible o-line that allowed him to be pounded into submission, and an ill-fated meaningless QB sneak against Troy State that took away his mobillity and basically made him a sitting duck behind said o-line.

We had to endure Ron Cooper for one season.

The impending apathy led to fan resentment, and Gene ultimately lost business when the apathy spurned some posters that he banned to form their own board.

The 2001 Egg Bowl had more fallout than Hiroshima. And it's all Yoko Ono's fault.

If your team beats your rival on their field as 16 point dogs and you win $500 in the process, that would be up there as one of the best days of your life.
