As I sit and watch our Bulldogs get beat by Arkansas, I decided to start planning out next big win and tailgate! So, let's start the discussion for next weekend...
Saturday, November 26, we will go up against the Ole Miss Rebels in Starkville. Game time is at 6 p.m. and as of right now, weather is high of 68 degrees and low of 45 degrees.
From what I have gathered, we are going to have quite a few extra people at the tailgate....since it is Thanksgiving. So, let's plan for around 30.
As usual, if you know what you want to bring, post on here or email me at tjw31651@aol.com. Last tailgate had some AMAZING FOOD!
Tailgate Food for Egg Bowl:
- Bill and Jenny: Stuffed jalapeno peppers
I will see everyone next weekend! Go Bulldogs!!!

MSU vs. Alabama: November 12
FOOD UPDATE:
Mike and Lynn Chambers: Catfish filets
Bill and Jenny Shearer: Pepper and Onion Relish dip w/Wheat thins and....?
I have been a horrible blogger/fan this football season! However, I will be back in full force this weekend! No more bailing on my Bulldogs!
Saturday, November 12, we will go up against Alabama. This is going to be a night game, so bring your warm clothes just in case! The weather says a high of 68 degrees and a low of 46 degrees...so dress in layers! Game is at 6:45 p.m. Because of daylight savings, the sun will be down and it will be dark and cold!!! The website says "True Maroon" on this game, but I am not quite sure what this means. Maybe wear maroon?? I don't know, but I will wear my Bulldog gear like always!
As for the tailgate...these are my favorite! We will do the majority, if not all of our tailgating BEFORE the game because it will be a late one. I have not discussed/heard about the main dish situation, so all comments/opinions are welcome.
When you know what you want to bring, post it on the blog or email me at TJW31651@aol.com and I will post it for you! Have a fabulous week and I hope to see everyone there! Go Bulldogs!
One last thing...we will probably be setting up on Saturday around noon. That gives us a nice long day to enjoy each other's company and eat! Bill and I will also be bringing BAGGO! I gave him this for Christmas last year and we both just realized it has been sitting in our garage all year when it should have been out at our tailgate!
P.S. Bob and Anne may be out again this week, so if anyone can get there on Friday to set up the tents, please let me know. Bill and I will be coming on Friday, but we will NOT make it by 5. We will likely pull in around 6 if we leave right after I get home from school.

Homecoming
This is Bill updating the Blog this week. (As evidenced by the lack of all the cool extras like the gameday helmets.) Anyway, Jenny will be bailing on us for Mistletoe Marketplace (booooooo) so I'm going to try to fill in for her. (I retract that booooo because I'm really glad her Mom comes into town to go with her so I can get off the hook for it.)
The weather looks like it could be perfect. Not to jinx it, but we're looking at the low 70s for the prime tailgate time and then getting down in the forties throughout the game. As for the game... hmmm. Let's just say there will more than likely be plenty of people sticking around the tailgate and not going into Davis Wade. There's a pretty big game that starts at 7 in Tuscaloosa, and we'll have it on the TV.
Bob is still recovering from his surgery, and doing better and better each day. He also got a clean pathology report! However, he's not ready to make a road trip, so he and Anne will be staying in Jackson. I also think Dee and Martha are still across the pond. I'll be headed up to Starkville in time to get our spot reserved. Last I talked to him, Blake and Stephanie were coming into town on Friday, so I'll just be hanging out with the tents and a cooler until they get there and can help me set them up. Beats sitting at a desk on Friday afternoon.
As for food... I have absolutely no idea what I'm bringing or what anyone else is bringing. Post whatever you'd like to bring and we'll all enjoy it. As for when to get out there? Noon at the latest for me. Probably a little earlier so I can enjoy the early SEC game in the great weather.

Game time is early! Looks like we will kick off at 11:21 a.m. Hopefully the weather is going to stay as gorgeous as it has been here la
tely! I am thinking we will probably want to have a few breakfast items that we can quickly grab before going in the game, as well as a few breakfast cocktails! :)
Then, we can come back after our WIN against South Carolina and tailgate all afternoon.
So...food for the morning and food for the afternoon...

MSU vs. Louisiana Tech
Our next game will be this Saturday, September 24 vs. Louisiana Tech! Hopefully our Bulldogs will pull out a victory with this one. Looks like another evening game...this one is at 6 p.m. I hear the weather is supposed to be amazing!!!
Bill and I will not be attending this game (I promise I will be at the next one!) because we are going to Memphis to attend my 10 year high school reunion. I feel so old. :)
So...I am posting all that I know on the blog and you guys can take it from there.
By the way...when I finally get to come to a game, it will be my birthday weekend, so I will be ready to celebrate!
As for the tailgate for this game...
Bob and Anne - hamburgers and buns (need someone to bring the condiments--lettuce, onion, tomato, etc.)
That's all I have for now. Please post what you want to bring and I will update the blog closer to game day. Have a fabulous week! Go Bulldogs!

2011 MSU Football Season-- MSU vs. Memphis
I can't believe football season is already here! The first game is vs. Memphis @ Memphis. Here is an email I got from Dee Smelley to post for all those attending the Memphis game:
It's time for the 2011 Bulldog season and Matt (Deuce) is hosting a tailgate at his home in Memphis (155 Greeff Lane, Memphis TN 38111).
The plan is to commence to tailgate around 1pm on Thursday and the game starts at 7pm in the Liberty Bowl.
Since Matt has to work for most of the day (Boo), Dee and Martha will be hosting. We plan to do hamburger sliders, baked beans, and cole slaw. All are welcome to stop by and bring a favorite dish or treat and a cool beverage.
Here are the folks that have said they are or might be coming:
Matt & Blue
Dee & Martha
Chuck & Mary Stewart - Martha's cousin
Mike & Lynn Chambers
Melissa & Kris
Jim & Nancy Dorroh - O.S. friends
Jim & Krista
Frank & Carol Ann Wilkerson - O.S. friends
