A popular college football Twitter account may be a secret Michigan State football fan and I\u2019m just now realizing it.<\/p>\n
On Twitter, Big Game Boomer (@BigGameBoomer) is a college sports account that has made a name for himself by creating lists. Literally lists of anything: best college bars, top linebackers in the Big Ten, even ranking mascots. If you can name it, there is probably a BGB list for it. Real recognize real and he\u2019s done an awesome job of driving engagement through these lists.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve been following BGB for the last year and a half. I agree with some of his content and disagree with others but I\u2019ve picked up on a pattern recently that has really made me think.<\/p>\n
As a noted Oklahoma Sooner, Big Game Boomer, tries to be as unbiased as possible which I actually think he does a solid job of.\u00a0 Heading into 2023, he has been releasing his lists for \u2018Top *insert anything* heading into the season\u2019 and I have noticed something very interesting. Not only is he very high on the school down the road (his ceiling 12-0, floor 12-0) but it is almost like he is avoiding\u00a0Michigan State football<\/a>\u00a0on purpose.<\/p>\n I am such a superfan of Michigan State that, yes, I am ignorant to certain thoughts. But do I actually believe the Michigan State football secondary should even sniff the top half of a ranking? Heck no. What\u2019s interesting is that MSU\u2019s defensive line and not a single defensive lineman has been ranked in any sort of lists. Most improved offensive line? Nope. Best linebacking group? Nowhere mentioned.<\/p>\n What makes this phenomenon even more interesting, is how much faith BGB has in Michigan. Based on what he\u2019s shared, one would think he\u2019s pegged the 2023 Wolverines as the greatest team in college football history.<\/p>\n Based on his purposeful omission of MSU and apparent \u2018love\u2019 for Michigan I have developed a theory.\u00a0BGB is a secret Michigan State fan and is building the greatest reverse jinx to ever grace the sport<\/strong>. If one\u2019s entire online bit was ranking things, someone who is superstitious would certainly omit their favorite team from said lists\u00a0and\u00a0<\/em>jinx the heck out of their rival (Michigan).<\/p>\n Just keep an eye out for this heading into the season. And if BGB jumps on the Mel Tucker bandwagon, don\u2019t say I didn\u2019t warn you.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re a real one, you\u2019ll comment \u2018nice MSU reverse jinx\u2019 under every list moving forward.<\/p>\n Thank you, This would be a shocking turn of events<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":56,"featured_media":6110,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[173],"tags":[191,189],"class_list":["post-6108","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-michigan-state-football","tag-michigan-state-spartans"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6108","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/56"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6108"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6108\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6110"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6108"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6108"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6108"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
