More Cowbell?

Mississippi State University is in the best and most prestigious college conference ever... The SEC! Being in the SEC means that Football rules. Let me explain, SEC Football is a religion in the south. The fan base is excellent and spans many generations. The rivalries run deep and every game counts. The Athletics are very competitive and often the SEC schools are so good that they end up knocking each other out of key bowl games, March Maddness, ect. Mississippi State's football games have been sold out for the past 15yrs, luckily, in the next year or so the campus is going to enlarge the stadium to fit even more fans! The Fan trademark of this school is the cowbell, ring it loud and ring it proud!

We have wonderful training and workout facilities, including our own trainers, psychologists, and academic advisers. Intramural sports are pretty huge, too, because anyone can play. There are three levels/leagues of intramural at MSU: The Juggernauts, The I-Kinda-Know-What-Im-Doing, and the "How do I play?". We have some pretty diverse ones from inner tube water polo to Frisbee Golf we have it all.

Student Involvement

I believe student involvement makes a big different in how team do in a game. By having students come in to help and to cheer, the team will be able to understand that their parts in the school by doing well in sport is very important.
