I Never Stopped Believing in Our Bulldog Team

And you shouldn't either.

I Never Stopped Believing in Our Bulldog Team
Tally Duke

I have been a fan of Mississippi State for my entire life. I am the fourth generation at this school, and my grandpa even played for MSU, so I know what it is like to be a state fan.

It is a roller coaster ride, but I wouldn't want it any other way

It always breaks my heart to see students, and fans give up on the team or blame a loss on one person. Football is a team sport, so a loss is a TEAM effort.

Mississippi State football will keep you on your toes. It always has and it always will, and it is not for the weak at heart, or bandwagon fans.

It breaks my heart when I see people hating on our team

Students tweeting mean things towards our quarterback, petty Instagram captions, and flat out rude articles being written and published. The players see that stuff y'all, and I'm sure it saddens them even more.

The boys are fighters, and when needed they will step up to the plate, and even surprise you, so just because our team had one bad day does not mean you should rule them out for the rest of the season.

I will never stop believing in my school's football team

I know what it is like to be a Mississippi State fan, so I know that they will surprise everyone when we least expect it. To our awesome, talented football team: do not listen to everyone else. Just keep getting better, faster, stronger, and prove EVERYONE wrong.

Also students: I want to see you get out on that field in front of THOUSANDS, and see if you can perform as well as our boys can. Put yourself in someone else's shoes before you decide to throw out unnecessary hate.

I will be at every home game ringing my cowbell as loud as I can, and so should you fellow students. Maybe not because you are the biggest fan, but because you go to this school so at least show some respect and school spirit

This might be a little bit of a rant, but I feel like it's necessary to defend our football team from all the hate they have been receiving recently. Hail State my dudes, keep up the champion standard on and off the field and you will rise above this.

Thanks for coming to MY TED talk.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
