The date has been announced for the spring football game at Williams Stadium ... April 13th.

You can do the math in your heads to figure out when the workouts will begin.

[SuperJon]

That also says we're opening the season on a Thursday night.

[Sly Fox]

And considering KSU's positioning this fall and the MACtion contract with ESPN, the television possibilities are very intriguing.

[ProudPapa73]

Very intriguing indeed!

Go Flames!!!

Ok, we know what the date of the sping game is, but what I wanna know is how many of the newer recruits go to this game as well. Is it just the ones that are local enough to get there or what. thx

I hope for this years spring game we run more of playbook than last year.

I hope for this years spring game we run more of playbook than last year.

They probably will just based on the fact that the players have now had more time to assimilate the offense as opposed to last year. I wouldn´t count on too much though. Most coaches are not going to show too much just for the sake of entertaining the fans that show up. You don´t have to go deep into the playbook to see what the players can do, and that´s what the Spring game is about.

[BJWilliams]

olldflame is right...if anything theyll keep it pretty basic for the spring game for the very reason already explained. You wont see a ton of installation or what have you until training came in July/August.

BJ - This "+1" is much quicker.

BJ - This "+1" is much quicker.

with BJ's insight +1 is NEVER good enough!

[BJWilliams]

your sarcasm is duly noted...

[PAmedic]

other pearls of wisdow from BeeJay :

ya gotta play 'em one day at a time.
I'm just happy to be here. Hope I can help the ballclub.
I just want to give it my best shot, and the good Lord willing, things will work out.

[Cider Jim]

Just realized that the spring game is the same weekend as CFAW!
Is that usually how it works?

[BiggAl57]

I heard that the spring game was not going to be a "live" game

[BJWilliams]

Ive heard the same. With the new network, I wouldnt be surprised if that changed next year though

[prototype]

I heard that the spring game was not going to be a "live" game

Are we watching a replay on the big screen?

[wideflame]

It will be a live practice...too many are out or left the team or injured to have a sping game.

[PAmedic]

Depends on what you want F.B.S. to stand for

[Cider Jim]

And NONE of my tailgating buddies want to tailgate the spring "practice" this year.

So you'll at least be sober....

[birchbark]

Go Flames - lets see some of what we've got to look forward to next season!

Or tailgate by himself, and be really....not sober.

[ballcoach15]

Who do we have injured ?

Who has left team ?

A Thursday night game in August is usually a nationally televised NCAA launch for ESPN, right?
