MSU vs. Alcorn State- Saturday, October 2

What an incredible game we had against Georgia!!!  Can't wait to see us win again this weekend when we play Alcorn State!

The weather is supposed to be incredible for this game.  Highs in the UPPER 70's and lows in the LOW 50's with ZERO percent chance of rain!  Finally, football weather!!!

Kick-off for this weekend is at 11 a.m.  So...let's plan on setting up between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m.  

As for food, let's discuss...

By the way...the food at the Georgia game was OUTSTANDING!  I don't think there was anything left by the end of the game!

As for Alcorn State...
We need something to eat BEFORE the game, but we will definitely need lunch AFTER the game since I am sure most will want to hang out, visit and watch a little football after we beat Alcorn State!  So...if you want to plan on bringing a little something for breakfast and then a little something for lunch, that would be great!  Just remember...the majority of people will be coming to the tailgate after the game.

Here are a few ideas for BEFORE the game...Chicken/Sausage biscuits from Chick-fil-a, McDonalds, or Bojangles, the makings for bloody marys/or mimosas, donuts, muffins, sausage balls, breakfast casseroels, etc.  Bring whatever you want.

As for AFTER the game, we could always grill something out or order something from McArthur Hall.  Either is fine.  What do you guys think?  We could look into ordering something and come back with a price/person.

***UPDATED***
This is what people have volunteered for so far...

- Anne and Bob: Cheese Grits
- Cameron and Brooks: Donuts/Pastries (before game), cookies (after game)
- Mr. Rainey: Smoke Salmon
- Bill and Jenny: Chili
- Dee and Martha: Jumbo Hotdogs and Buns
FYI...if you know someone at our tailgate that would like to be included in this blog, just let me know their email address and I can add them to the list, so that they can be included in our tailgate gameday discussions.

If you cannot post on this blog, just email me back at TJW31651@aol.com and I will post for you!  Can't wait to see everyone Saturday.  Go Bulldogs!

  1. Food Updates:
    -Cameron and Brooks will be bringing donuts and other pastries for pre-game and cookies for post game.

    -Mr. Rainey will smoke another SALMON for after the game.

    -Bill and I were thinking we could do chili for after the game since the weather is supposed to be really nice. It would also be very easy to heat up after the game. Someone could bring hotdogs if we wanted to make chili dogs. What do you guys think?

  2. Hey Gang, Dee and Martha will bring the jumbo hot dogs and buns for after the game. Bill and Jenny's chili with go nicely with the dogs. We will also bring the coleman stove to use for warming the chili. Now, someone just needs to volunteer to bring fixings for mimosas and/or tequila sunrises for before the game. How about it????

  3. Bill is making some homemade cornbread and we are also bringing onions and cheese to top the chili dogs. If you know of another topping, please bring it! These are just two I thought of.

  4. Well, better late than never! Mike and I will bring some good oyster crackers for the chili, some fruit (unusual, huh?), cheese, and bagettes. It's just been another one of those weeks!!! Go DAWGS!
