Morehead State University

The MSU Eagles, three time Pioneer Football League South Division Champions, face a tough, tough schedule this year. They play three South Division foes and three North Division foes. The big game this year will be homecoming on October 15th when arch rival Austin Peay comes to town.

Expect big things from the Eagles who are rated 8th in the pre-season Mid-Major poll, rebounding from last years disappointing 6-6 finish. Passing, running and punting will be much improved and blocking might even be a little better.

When asked for a quote on this year's prospects my other half replied "You know Phil Simms don't you? He played at Morehead when I went there. I used to see him walking to class. Nobody really thought he was that good. We weren't real good at football. He's very famous you know. And he went to Morehead." When pressed for a comment on this year's prospects, or other players who've played at MSU, she continued "Phil Simms played for the Giants. You know him don't you? He was probably the best quarterback ever in the NFL don't you think? He's an announcer now you know...."

Go Eagles.

Your wife could not have gone to college with Phil Simms. She looks much younger than him.
