I think last year the conference released conference dates either championship weekend or the week after. But I can’t seem to find anything about when it will happen

I’m still surprised Miss St isn’t the opening Thursday game. Those have always been fun when we play a power conference opponent.

Think we are at Miss St next year, then they come here the following year. Nope I'm wrong Miss State at home 09_12 then return date is 2027 in Starksville.

MSU has had ULM on the 5th for a while. They also had no desire to open on the road.

Last year the release date was December 11, a few days after the conference championship game.

I assume it’ll be similar. Would be nice if they told fans things

They play Iowa, Michigan, Northwestern and UCLA at home. They play Indiana, Penn State, Purdue, Washington and Wisconsin on the road.
